Coastal communities are grappling with challenges from the climate crisis, rural depopulation, and economic pressures. The BlueRev initiative addresses these issues by empowering coastal communities, reimagining policy frameworks and fostering adaptable governance structures. BlueRev aims to drive social and environmental impact within local communities across pilot regions (Denmark/Greenland, Italy, Estonia) by establishing sustainable and socially responsible business models in the blue bio-based sector. This report highlights best practices from pilot regions in fish by-products valorisation, showcasing innovative business models in Greenland, Denmark, Estonia, and Sicily. • Greenland: Transforming fish processing waste into dog food. • Denmark: Developing an Omega-3 enriched functional beverage. • Estonia: Utilizing red algae for nutraceutical and cosmetic applications. • Sicily: Promoting the sustainable valorisation of by-catch, specifically The Ritunnu. The guidelines developed in this report will serve as a foundation for scaling these practices within the blue bioeconomy and beyond. They provide practical, actionable steps for implementing sustainable business models and are intended to support future efforts to expand the adoption of circular economy principles in the blue bio-based sector

CANALLS Agroecological practices for sustainable transition
Agroecology covers all activities and actors involved in food systems. It also places the well-being of people (producers and consumers of crops and products) at its core. The EU-funded CANALLS project will focus on the agroecological zones and diverse farming systems in the humid tropics of Central and Eastern Africa. It will explore the complex environmental, social and economic challenges, which in some cases are exacerbated by conflict and high vulnerability. Moreover, it will advance agroecological transitions in these regions through multi-actor transdisciplinary agroecology Living Labs at eight sites in four countries. The focus will be on crops such as cocoa, coffee and cassava, which are vital for subsistence and economic development.

AquaUP - Aquafeed Upgraded: Enhancing Immune Function of Fish with Seaweed-modified Functional Compounds
The aquaculture industry is anticipating intensive production growth to meet future food demand. Yet, this growth is constrained by a number of challenges, not least including disease spread and use of antibiotics and chemicals to combat or reduce disease outbreaks.

OptFORESTS - Harnessing forest genetic diversity for increasing options in the face of environmental and societal challenges
OptFORESTS har som overordnet mål å bidra til bevaring og bruk av skogtregenetiske ressurser i Europa og er en oppfølging av ambisjonen i EUs grønne giv (Green Deal) om å plante 3 milliarder trær i EU innen 2030. Skogplantingen vil øke karbonbindingen og tilføre samfunnet mer trevirke som en sentral del av grønn omstilling. OptFORESTS rolle er å utvikle både skogfaglig og sosiokulturell kunnskap for å kunne ta flere treslag i bruk i skogbruket, bidra til restaurering av skog og øke produksjonskapasiteten i skogplanteskolene i Europa. NIBIO er sammen med 18 andre institusjoner fra 15 land partner i dette prosjektet som går helt til 2027.
