Agroecology for Europe

Project description

Agroecology for sustainable agricultural and food systems

Agroecology is emerging as a one-way path for the development of sustainable agricultural and food systems in Europe. However, despite considerable efforts, full implementation is still limited. The EU-funded AE4EU project will contribute to research and innovation on agroecology development through various strategic goals. The project will develop a blueprint for a European network of agroecological living labs, research infrastructure and other related players. Moreover, it will map local-, regional- and national-level innovations and initiatives in various European countries, providing an inclusive and precise overview of agroecology and facilitating the connection of funding schemes and policies. The project will also make recommendations for the improvement of funding for public and private agroecological research.
