Final event of the New-C-Land project

The partners of the New-C-Land project (Interreg France-Wallonie-Vlaanderen program) are pleased to invite you to their closing event which will take place on Tuesday, June 14, from 12.30pm to 5.00pm in Charleroi (Belgium). Come and discover the results of the project, its lessons learned and feedback during an afternoon of conferences.

With the rise of the biosourced economy, the demand for plant-based raw materials is growing rapidly. It is therefore crucial today to consider the spaces that can accommodate crops in order to meet these future needs and to support the biomass value chains present in the cross-border area. This is the objective of New-C-Land.
