TOOLS FOR QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS ON BIOECONOMY

Marian BUTU

Abstract

The concept of bioeconomy began to actively take shape in the world in the mid-2000s, when the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the European Commission (EC) began to develop programs to promote the bioeconomy in different countries. Documentation in the field of bioeconomy is a challenge for research, as official statistics report data on traditional sectors without distinguishing between synthetic and biological production. Therefore, indicators for the bioeconomic field are currently estimated based on a combination of multiple sources. In order to successfully achieve the objectives proposed in the presented research and to obtain the estimated results, we used summaries of the methods and techniques for analyzing, evaluating, comparing and confirming the identified approaches. Thus, in order to achieve the bibliographic study, the approach was multidisciplinary by accessing established platforms containing research databases in natural sciences, economics and social sciences: Thomson Reuters Web of Science, Scirus, Scopus / ScienceDirect, EconLit and International Bibliography of the Social Sciences. The analysis of various strategies was carried out on the basis of an evaluation grid following the definition of a good practice system. The main results of the research are represented by the identification of the directions of development of the bioeconomy in Romania, the improvement of bioeconomic assessment tools, personalized tools for scientific communities, representatives of public authorities, students, NGOs and other stakeholders.
