Abstract :
[en] Abstract: Aroecology is promising for the ecological transitions towards sustainable agriculture. Considering agroecology as a concept of scientific action and a driving force that mobilise social change, we shall explore the emerging varieties of agroecology in Europe, (although mindful that they are more important in the USA and Brazil). The interdisciplinary workshop will explore the followings topics: (1) EU mapping of agroecology, (2) transition & lock-in dynamic), (3) systemic/holistic approach, (4) “publics”, and (5) the research - teaching link.
