2025-11-28 Agro-Food, EnvironmentThe new Bioeconomy Strategy outlines a path for building a clean and competitive economy by tapping into renewable resources from land and sea. This strategy not only aims to create jobs but also intends to position Europe as a leader in the transition to clean industries. The bioeconomy currently accounts for a value of up to €2.7 trillion in 2023 and supports approximately 17.1 million jobs in the EU. The strategy outlines the need to scale up innovation and develop lead markets for bio-based materials by encouraging investments in sectors including agriculture, biomanufacturing, and biotechnology. The European Commission will work to create a coherent and simplified regulatory framework that rewards circular and sustainable business models, while safeguarding EU safety standards. Faster, clearer and simpler approvals for innovative solutions will support companies to develop and grow in Europe, especially for SMEs. Interested parties are encouraged to explore the implications of the Bioeconomy Strategy. More information can be found here.

The Charter sets out non-binding principles promoting environmental sustainability in research practices, covering topics such as research-related travel and events, resource-intensive research settings, data, hardware and software usage. The Charter is addressed to researchers, research managers, research groups, organisations and consortia participating in projects funded by the MSCA.

Professor Inez Germeys leads the Center for Contextual Psychiatry at KU Leuven, which is a large multi-disciplinary research group focusing on the interaction between the person and the environment in the development of psychopathology. She has received a European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator grant (INTERACT) and Proof of Concept grant (IMPACT). With these grants professor Germeys and her team researched a new mobile self-management therapy for patients with a psychotic disorder. The Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in Daily Life (ACT-DL) was further developed for the clinical environment. In line with that the Horizon 2020 IMMERSE project aims to thoroughly evaluate strategies, processes, and outcomes of implementing a digital mobile mental health solution.
