4.Synthesis of best practices on agro-ecological practices for dissemination and outreach
ECOTWINS will enhance the research competence and excellence, as well as management and translational skills of NUBiP coordination team, by strategic and progressive transfer of knowledge and skills from the three EU partners (UCPH, SLU, ESCI). Furthermore, this project will strengthen NUBiP existing networks with other Ukrainian and international institutions by widening its research outlook and network with the support of EU partners. As a test bed and model sustainable cultivation site, ECOTWINS will also have an explorative agro-ecological research as a common theme across the WP activities using local resources. This will contribute to boosting the research in agroecology, disseminatee the sustainability-linked results and awareness to the scientific community, SMEs and general public in Ukraine.
