Blue bioeconomy is primarily aquatic circular economy and extends our current system boundaries for bioeconomic use from the land (29% Earth surface) to the oceans (71% surface). Aquatic ecosystems are sensitive and not “domesticated”. There are hardly any cultivated landscapes under water. The use, management and disposal must be careful and sustainable. The blue bioeconomy will grow especially in regions with access to natural, large water areas (especially coastal regions), like in Northern Germany … or at the Baltic Sea!
The DBU would like to establish an inter- and transdisciplinary location-independent college on the Blue Bioeconomy. Up to 10 fellowships will be awarded. The general conditions of the MOE Fellowship Program apply to the awarding of Fellowships.
You can apply for this interdisciplinary fellowship through the regular MOE Fellowship Program until 05/09/2021 and 05/03/2022. Please prefix the title of the project with “Kolleg-Blue Bioeconomy”.
