This funding call, issued by the Federal Ministry for Education and Research, aims to support research projects that explore the challenges and success factors associated with transforming traditional economic models into a circular bioeconomy. The call is part of a broader national strategy that seeks to shift from a linear, fossil-fuel based economy to one that is sustainable, resource-efficient, and climate-neutral. The initiative is aligned with overarching objectives of promoting sustainable development, fostering innovation, and addressing societal challenges through evidence-based research. It emphasizes the integration of scientific inquiry with practical solutions to harness the full potential of the bioeconomy. Proposals should examine theoretical frameworks and propose viable strategies for incorporating circular economy principles into bioeconomic value chains, focusing on resource efficiency, waste reduction, and recycling of secondary raw materials. Projects are expected to provide concrete recommendations for implementation by regional actors, businesses, and policymakers. The call also encourages transdisciplinary collaboration among social sciences, humanities, economics, law, and political science to ensure that proposed solutions are comprehensive, addressing economic, social, and legal dimensions. Stakeholders from academia, research institutes, and small and medium enterprises are invited to develop integrated strategies that tackle the complexities of transitioning to a circular bioeconomy. Key aspects include a requirement for a robust research design, clear articulation of research objectives, detailed work package planning with milestones, a solid financial plan, and a strategy for disseminating research findings. The funding is structured to yield significant contributions to regional economic development and innovation while addressing environmental and societal challenges. Applicants should propose innovative, interdisciplinary projects with scalable solutions to enhance sustainability and drive systemic change for impact.
