Sustainable forest management providing renewable energy, sustainable contruction and bio-based products
Abstract
RoK-FOR aims to create a ‘region of knowledge’ in the forestry sector in Europe, and will significantly contribute to the forest sector by supporting sustainable use of natural resources, renewable energy, sustainable construction materials and bio-based products, without jeopardizing the environment. RoK-FOR is a Coordination Action of five regional research-driven clusters from six European countries: Germany (Baden-Württemberg); Finland (North Karelia); Spain (Catalonia), and the cross-border clusters from Croatia-Serbia and France-Spain (Aquitaine-Basque). These regional research-driven clusters collectively form a European level meta-cluster that will be working together to increase the coherence and address the needs of the three Lead Market Initiatives (renewable energy, sustainable construction, and bio-based products) under the umbrella of the sustainable forest management in an innovative and competitive manner. EFICEEC contributes as part of an EFI team and is responsible for the “Analysis of Regional Capacities and Policies” and has specific tasks in the “Mentoring” activities. A major part of the work is the analyses of the relevant institutional frameworks and policies in the innovation system.
