How can I join in?

Structural change has many facets and the vision of a model region for sustainable, bio-based economic activity after the coal phase-out can only succeed in the long term if a wide variety of people from the region do it together.

Get in touch and join in! It's about our common future in the Rhenish mining area - for a liveable environment and new, interesting jobs for all of us and future generations.

There are many ways to get involved: as a citizen, farmer, scientist, local authority or business representative. The BioökonomieREVIER coordination office would like to work together with all of you on this ambitious vision of the future. Feel free to get in touch with your contact person.

With our BioökonomieMOBIL, we would like to talk to you in a Tiny House on site in the region. Here you can experience the bioeconomy at first hand.

Tiny Houses
Bioeconomy MOBILE

What is behind the term bioeconomy? So far, this is hardly known outside the scientific community. We want to change that!

In our rolling houses you can touch and experience the bio-based economy with augmented reality. Tiny houses travel through the region and show how new value creation can be created.

Sustainable land use in the region
Civic participation for the bioeconomy

The citizens should be able to participate in the development of a model for sustainable bioeconomy and land use.

Innovative, dialogue-oriented offers are to involve the people of the region and allow them to help shape the process. This citizen participation is being developed by the Center for Environmental Management, Resources and Energy (CURE).

Explained: what is civic participation?
