The AGROECOLOGY Partnership will soon launch the 2nd co-funded call: “Integrating environmental, economic and social perspectives in assessing the performance of agroecology. Value-chain and policy implications”

  • Topic 1 : Determine and assess benefits/impacts and trade-offs of agroecology, and identify best practices
