Agroecology Europe (AEEU) is an international association of members who wants to exchange knowledge and experiences on agroecology, to place agroecology high on the European agenda and to support the transition toward agroecological practices, sustainable food systems and policies.
To support exchange, reflection and bottom-up contributions, Agroecology Europe organises every two years together with local farmers, universities, social movement organisations, local administrations and non-governmental organisations an Agroecology Europe Forum.
The Agroecology Europe Forum is a 3-day in-person event gathering around 400 people from all over Europe and is meant to be a dynamic and interactive platform for dialogue around key European policy issues, between the main actors and representatives of the agroecological sphere such as local farmers, researchers, social movements as well as non-governmental organizations and European policy makers.

Agroecology Europe Forum 2027: COIMBRA, PORTUGAL, OCTOBER 2027
Join us at Agroecology Europe Forum 2027 – a visionary meeting place for shaping the future of European food systems through agroecology!
With the theme “Reviving Cosmovisions” the Agroecology Europe Forum 2027, organised by FAST Agroecology and Agroecology Europe, invites participants to reimagine the deep relationships between people, food, land, and nature and draw new agroecological pathways.
Reviving Cosmovisions speaks to an urgent need: to reconnect current agrifood systems with the ancestral, biocultural, and place-based knowledge that has long guided sustainable interactions with the natural world. How food is produced, distributed, and consumed has always been central to people’s relationships with non-human nature and land.
Across regions, communities have historically drawn from diverse Indigenous and local knowledge systems that frame humans as part of Nature, not apart from it. Yet today, homogeneous and globalised agrifood systems have disrupted these relationships. Climate change, biodiversity loss, conflicts, ecological collapse, rural-to-urban migration, and the erosion of cultural memory are generating unprecedented threats to both ecosystems and social fabrics.
