Bioeconomy entrepreneurship intrigues students

Venla Wallius and Fredric Mosley - 20/03/2023

Venla Wallius and Fredric Mosley from EFI share some of the results of a recent survey targeting life science students in Europe. They found out that nearly 30% of respondents are very interested in becoming entrepreneurs in the field of bioeconomy, but that there are also barriers that prevent students from pursuing business opportunities.

How does the European Union make forest policy decisions?

Helga Pülzl - 16/02/2023

When thinking about the European Union, we can get the impression that policymaking is complicated, distant, and not relevant to citizens in the EU member states. Think about forest policy. Isn’t it true that forest-related policy decisions are made in our own parliaments guided by our elected politicians only? Well, not really. The decision process is more complicated than that.
