The objectives of the European AGROECOLOGY partnership presented by Benjamin Sanchez

The objectives of the European partnership AGROECOLOGY "European partnership on accelerating farming systems transition – agroecology living labs and research infrastructures" presented by Benjamin Sanchez.

Scientific webinar organized on February 22, 2024.

Benjamin Sanchez presented the objectives and organization of the AGROECOLOGY partnership and announced the opening of the call for projects that has just launched.

This presentation illustrates that the development of agroecology must be approached on a European scale and not just a national one. The discussions allowed for an exchange on the objectives of the partnership to establish networks of living labs to produce innovative solutions through a multi-stakeholder approach and field experiments in real-life situations, placing farmers at the heart of the systems. This can inspire us in forming collaborations!
