The bioeconomy is a political project that focuses on the capitalist production and
\nand utilization of nature for the transition from fossil to bio-based economic and
\nmodes of production. The research project BioMaterialities investigates in this
\nthe transformation processes of the bioeconomy in production, reproduction and politics.

Many bioeconomy activities have a profound impact on the reproduction of nature.

\nfeminist perspectives on “green” bioeconomy projects with their
\ntransformations and high technologies at the landscape level (e.g.
\necosystem services, agricultural land or forests) and at the molecular level (e.g.
\nPlant Breeding) are invited. On the other hand, we invite feminist perspectives on “red
\nbioeconomies” that involve high technologies and their impacts on bodies and
\nHealth.<\/p>\n
The workshop will bring together work and perspectives from feminist economics, the
\nfeminist technoscience and feminist political ecology on the bioeconomy and also aims to support the networking of researchers in the field.<\/p>\n
