In the present study, the growth strategies of six countries of the European Union will be studies in the framework of bioeconomy and sustainable development in the light of the green investments made in them. Bioeconomy can be defined as “the production and the use of biological resources, biological processes and principles for the sustainable production of goods and services in all sectors of the economy". It is based on three pillars such as the use of renewable biomass and efficient processes aimed at the sustainable production of goods, the utilization of technologies and biotechnological methods, and finally, the application of sustainable practices in the fields of agriculture, health and industry. The bioeconomy is growing rapidly as the world's population, climate change, food security and non-renewable resources are deplete, and is a tool for sustainable economic development and the creation of new jobs. The bioeconomy has been adopted by many countries of the world as a new development perspective, with the main goal of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set by the United Nations, as well as the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. In this study, the strategies and practices followed by six European countries (France, Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, and Spain) will be examined with a view to their development in the field of bioeconomy, bioenergy and forests.
