About

Established in 2020 in Brussels, the KMOP Policy Center (KMOP PC) is a policy and research hub committed to promoting social inclusion and sustainable development. With expertise in social experimentation, policy analysis, and international technical assistance, KMOP PC contributes to the design of effective, evidence-based solutions to complex societal challenges.

Building on KMOP’s long-standing social policy experience, the Policy Center supports the integration of human-centered and inclusive approaches into environmental and agricultural strategies. We contribute to efforts for the sustainable management of natural resources, the transition to a circular and bio-based economy, and the resilience of food systems and rural communities, with a focus on stakeholder engagement, social innovation, and inclusive governance.

Our work reinforces equitable green and digital transitions, supporting inclusive rural development and the advancement of climate-resilient livelihoods and bioeconomy policy frameworks.
