Description
Today, the forest-based sector in Europe provides society with a wide variety of products and services, ranging from paper, packaging, tissue paper, furniture, carpentry and construction materials made from solid wood and wood-based panels to textile fibres, biofuels, bio-energy and speciality chemicals.
The overall scope of WoodWisdom-Net+ is to support the transformation of the European forest-based industry and sustainable forest management to enable it to increase resource efficiency and develop a totally new products scope, while adapting to and mitigating the impacts of climate change. This will be achieved by integrating knowledge and technologies of large-scale industrial products and processes, as well as primary production.
The aim of the WoodWisdom-Net+ Action is to plan a single joint call for proposals for research, development and innovation in the forest sector with a clear financial commitment from the participating national (or regional) research programmes and the EU.
