Our understanding of agroecology
Agroecology is considered jointly as a science, a practice and a social movement . It encompasses the whole food system from the soil to the organization of human societies. It is value-laden and based on core principles.
our vision
Agroecology Europe intends to place agroecology high on the European agenda of sustainable farming and food systems. We foster interaction and knowledge sharing to create an inclusive European community of professionals, practitioners, and societal stakeholders in agroecology.
Our goals
The Association has a non-profit and international goal: it aims to analyse, design, develop, and promote the transition towards agroecological farming and food systems. Our goal is to support agroecological research, education, and training, share and disseminate agroecological knowledge, and promote agroecology in the farming and food sectors and in society.
