CO2 Solutions Living Lab

The CO2-Solutions Living Lab under Interbalkan Environment Center - Green Innovation Hub (I-BEC), brings together academia, industry, government, and civil society to address real-world environmental challenges and co-create innovative solutions focusing on advancing carbon farming practices to effectively reduce the carbon footprint and increase carbon sequestration. We foster collaborative activities for problem-solving in real-life settings, emphasizing: • Active involvement of end-users (farmers, landowners, cooperatives, agronomist consultants, agricultural technology companies, certification bodies, Regional authorities & Municipalities) • Engaging end-users in the co-creation process • Multi-stakeholder participation including all the quadruple helix actors • Utilizing a multi-method approach rather than relaying n a single methodology. CO2-Solutions Living Lab promotes: • Nature-based Solutions (NBS) for ecosystem resilience • Nature-based solutions (NBS) for sustainable resource management • Carbon farming practices • Precision agriculture practices • Mapping and network orchestration within the agri-food sector • Information dissemination and educational programs to raise awareness Demonstration value: Reference pilot stations in national level applying carbon farming solutions Want to learn more?
