Scope
While the scope of this project is international and global, the focus will be on Europe. The participants will be from different groups
of stakeholders –industry, international governmental organisations, policy makers, scientists and civil society – joining in a
process of interactive and long-term scenario development. About 30 representatives from the following groups of stakeholders will be
invited to the process:
- Agricultural producers and representative organisations
- Food and food ingredient industry (primary and secondary transformers)
- Other industries relying on agricultural raw materials (fermentation, biochemical, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, paper, etc.) and their associations
- Energy producers (traditional and alternative)
- Energy service providers
- Transport industry
- Waste and recycling industry
- International Governmental organisations (FAO, UNEP, UNCTAD, IEA, etc.)
- Government representatives
- Non-governmental organisations (environmental and social)
- Consumers and consumer protection groups
- Scientific community (biotechnology, engineering)
The intention will be to have an international perspective through representatives from various relevant geographic regions with main biofuels producing countries like Brazil, USA, EU, represented as well as some smaller and potentially new producing areas.
