BIOWISE is an Erasmus+ project, coordinated by the Warsaw University of Life Sciences, aiming to support the transition to bio-based materials in the wood, textile, and furniture sectors.

The project equips learners with cutting-edge applied biotechnology skills, integrating bioeconomy and circular economy principles into higher education to reduce reliance on fossil resources, support climate adaptation, and foster a new generation of transdisciplinary researchers, innovators, and entrepreneurs.

Objectives

BIOWISE brings together academia and industry to:

  • analyse biotechnology trends
  • identify key skills and knowledge needs
  • co-develop a shared skills framework

Main outcomes of the project include:

  • training programme with modular learning paths, digital resources, and teaching materials;
  • digital learning hub to support flexible and accessible learning;
  • hands-on laboratory activities and a practical lab manual for applied biotechnology.

Through collaboration, pilot activities, and on-site meetings, BIOWISE aims to prepare a new generation of researchers, innovators, and professionals for a more sustainable, bio-based future.
