How can trandisciplinary research drive real change in agri-food systems?

Join us for an inspiring session exploring how knowledge integration across disciplines, communities and sectors can spark real, tangible change in our food and farming systems.

This event will share insights from the Agroecology-TRANSECT project, which has been working closely with farmers, food networks and experts to put new ideas into practice.

We will dive into what we have learned about creating actionable knowledge – not just general theory, but insights that can support the shift toward more sustainable and resilient agroecological practices.

Whether you’re a farmer, food activist, student, policymaker, or just curious about the future of food and farming, all are welcome!
