SUMMARY:Six Pathways to Smart Certification of Bio-based Systems
DESCRIPTION:Are you a policy maker\, a member of the bio-based industry or a concerned consumer? Participate in the first webinar by the Horizon Europe project 3-CO on June 7th\, 2024\, from 11 am to 12:30 pm (CET)! The webinar will address the vital topic of certification and labelling of biological feedstock\, bio-based value chains and products. \nFollowing different calls of the European Commission several Horizon Europe projects are currently tackling the issue of certification and labelling by taking into account current political and societal developments. The projects’ diverse approaches encompass assessment\, monitoring\, and validation of bio-based case studies\, defining sustainability indicators\, formulating guidelines for certification and labelling schemes\, offering policy recommendations\, and developing innovative digital tools to provide information on bio-based value chains to consumers or industry stakeholders. \nJoin us on June 7th and listen to pitches from three individual HORIZON Europe projects\, i.e. 3-CO\, BioReCer and SUSTRACK\, and the BIOBASED cluster formed by HARMONITOR\, Star4bbs and Sustcert4Biobased. \nAgenda: \n\n11:00 Maarit Halttunen on 3-CO\n11:15 Pedro Villanueva Rey on BioReCer\n11:30 Gülşah Yilan on SUSTRACK\n11:45 Costanza Rossi\, Luana Ladu & Iris Vural Gursel on the BIOBASEDCERT Cluster (HARMONITOR\, Star4bbs\, Sustcert4Biobased)\n12:20 Q&A\n\nRegistration: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Gu4n5RlgTV2E086kpopmYA#/registration
