Bioeconomy knowledge base: an online library to support EU policymaking - Edition 2022
The bioeconomy covers all sectors and systems that rely on biological resources, their functions and principles. Compiling a robust information or evidence base is an essential component of better policymaking. Data, information and knowledge related to the bioeconomy are being produced at an accelerated pace and as the amount of available knowledge increases, the more pressing becomes the need to manage this knowledge. This means that knowledge needs to be properly captured, organised, stored, and shared and disseminated.
In this context, the Knowledge Centre for Bioeconomy online library provides a one-stop shop for filtered and distilled knowledge on the bioeconomy to support evidence-based EU policymaking. Its strength is the relevance, quality and accessibility of its resources as a result of a curation process and method that emerged from a series of gradual improvements and optimisations based on the lessons learnt over the previous years. This library is constantly updated with the latest publications, datasets, events, news, visualisations and other resources, and made publicly accessible on the Commission’s Knowledge for Policy Platform (https://knowledge4policy.ec.europa.eu/). This report describes the workflow process and methods used in the curation task, and details how the knowledge is organised, stored and shared. It contains statistics on the resources available and take-up from the users, and some concluding reflections on the approach, with recommendations on the way forward.
