SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND CLIMATE AND ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS OF PALUDICULTURE

Project description

Assessing paludiculture’s socio-economic and environmental impact

Paludiculture offers a sustainable agricultural approach for wetland areas, yet stakeholders require a deeper understanding to facilitate its adoption. The EU-funded Paludi4All project will investigate the socio-economic, climate and environmental dimensions of paludiculture, assessing its potential to mitigate climate change, protect ecosystems and generate employment in rural regions. Adopting an interdisciplinary, co-creation approach, the project will address farm, value chain and market levels, alongside the governance contexts that shape these areas, to develop a comprehensive market outlook. In alignment with the European Green Deal and the EU Biodiversity Strategy, Paludi4All will support carbon farming initiatives and contribute to robust climate policy monitoring, assessment and decision-making.

Objective

Paludi4All aims to understand the socio-economic, climate and environmental aspects of paludiculture, thereby holistically assessing the potentials for climate change mitigation, environmental protection and creating jobs and income in rural areas, as well as identifying innovative solutions for upscaling paludiculture in Europe. This will be achieved through Paludi4All’s interdisciplinary, co-creation-based systems approach that addresses the farm-, value chain-, and market levels and the governance context shaping these levels.

Paludi4All supports the paludiculture sustainability transition through enhanced understanding of economic implications of paludiculture for farms and society, creating a comprehensive market perspective on paludiculture, speeding up the development of paludiculture and improving knowledge on the paludiculture potential and environmental impacts.

Paludi4All endeavours to contribute significantly to the expected outcomes of the work programme. By enhancing the understanding of paludiculture systems, supporting the EU approach to carbon farming, and exploring innovative solutions, we align with the broader goals of the European Green Deal, the EU biodiversity strategy, and the Destination's impact related to efficient monitoring, assessment, modelling, and decision-making support systems for climate change mitigation and adaptation policies at European and global levels.
