Despite its relevance, research on its structure and evolution is still lacking due to methodological and data limitations. This special issue of the Journal of Economics presents four articles that address different dimensions of the bioeconomy: the impact of gender diversity on corporate water use, sustainable strategies in the creative bioeconomy in Brazil, the development of the circular bioeconomy in Mexico, and a bioeconomic model for sustainable fishing. Together, they seek to contribute to the study and development of this key sector for the economic and environmental future of the Americas and the world.]]></p></abstract>
