‘Roots of resilence – enhancing biodiversity through agroecology’ – virtual roadshow Wednesday 9th July 10:00 – 12:00 CET
Farmers, environmental scientists and policy makers are invited to join a virtual roadshow examining apparently ‘polar opposite’ approaches to conserving and restoring nature. Hosted by Agroecology-Transect, a Horizon Europe project exploring how nature-friendly farming is evolving across 11 European countries and beyond, the webinar explores compelling evidence demonstrating how these dramatically different approaches square-up to accelerate positive change for people, animals and the environment.
Agroecology Transect Project Coordinator Bertrand Dumont said: “Now in its third-year the Agroecology-Transect project has amassed a wealth of evidence and data demonstrating how agroecological farming practices result in an increase in biodiversity and advance climate change mitigation – compared to conventional farming practices. “
Roots of Resilience is the second in the series of four virtual roadshow in which we share some of the incredible findings and insights from Innovation Hubs and disseminate what they mean in practice in this interactive webinar where delegates are invited to question and discuss key learnings.
“We hear from some of the leading researchers in Europe in the field who will bring the evidence to life with innovative presentations, animation and visual storytelling to highlight how biodiversity underpins resilient agroecological systems.”
