Registration process

Please note that accommodation, food and field visits are taken care of for all participants. Travel to the event site is at the expense of the participants. We do our best, within our available budget, to support people with low incomes for whom travel may be a limitation to participate in the Agroecology Europe Youth Forum that we wish to be as inclusive as possible. If you need support for the travel cost, please contact us: Kira Miskulnig ( secretariat@agroecology-europe.org) and Elena Ambühl ( elena.ambuhl@agroecology-europe.org)
For members of Agroecology Europe, Mouvement Sillage and EURYFA there is a possibility to register as a supporting member for 50 euros and to provide additional support for low-income participants and for the band that will perform on Saturday night.
For non-members and for participants who do not wish to become members of Agroecology Europe, Mouvement Sillage or EURYFA, the registration fee is 70 euros.
We wish to give to favour a diversity of profiles, students, young farmers, workers of different fields related to agroecology, and a diversity of origin of the participants to favour synergies.
The aim of the forum:
Let’s gather to celebrate young engagement in agroecology and create a space of exchange between engaged and interested young people from all over Europe to deepen our understanding of the agroecological transformation and present job opportunities in this field.
Let’s strengthen collaboration between different existing agroecological networks, and exchange experiences and lessons learned to kick-start new ideas for working together and initiating projects.
Let’s engage with the practical dimension of agroecology through field visits and exchanges with young farmers and reflect on the challenges, opportunities and needs of young professional agroecologists.
What to expect:
A three-day-in-person event and joyful get-together of (young) agroecologists from all over Europe
