Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda
The Standing Committee on Agricultural Research Strategic Working Group on Agroecology (SCAR-AE) is the entity responsible for the preparation of the candidate European Partnership ‘Accelerating farming systems transition: agroecology living labs and research infrastructures’ (AELLRI) and, in particular, for developing the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA). SCAR-AE prepared a "Partnership dossier" in 2021.
A SRIA Core Team under SCAR-AE prepared the first consolidated version of the SRIA between January and June 2022, taking into account inputs from the broader SCAR-AE group and from many relevant stakeholders. The SRIA has been updated during the first half year of the Partnership and formally approved by the Partnership Government Board. It will be updated twice during its lifetime.
