Designing Biobased Education – Infographic (Deliverable 4.2)

This infographic offers a practical framework for developing education and training programmes that support the transition to a sustainable, biobased economy.

Drawing from real-world case scenarios, it helps align learning interventions with societal and organisational challenges—such as shaping bioeconomy policy or closing skills gaps in the workforce.

The framework addresses:

• Goals & Impact – Clarifying societal and organisational objectives before designing training.

• Learning Design – Creating inclusive, engaging formats using methods like biomimicry and arts-based learning.

• Competence Development – Defining and measuring knowledge, skills, and attitudes (KSA) relevant to future work contexts.

• Application & Evaluation – Assessing whether learning translates into real workplace performance and long-term change.

Two featured scenarios show how this approach can be applied:

• Policy Innovation – Empowering policymakers with tools to integrate bioeconomy in governance.

• Workforce Inclusion – Equipping job seekers with practical skills for biobased industry roles.
