Agroecology Initiatives in European Countries

Description

The report maps and discusses the agroecological initiatives in 11 European countries across the pillars of practice, science and social movements. The mapping was approached by gathering information of agricultural practices, science, and social organizations in order to get a general overview of agroecological activity and level of development in each country. In this report a first overview about the current status of agroecology initiatives in Europe is given, also highlighting similarities and differences in the perception and understanding of agroecology among diverse contexts and regions. The examples of best practices and initiatives identified in this study, including determinants and conditions for success, can be used to inform future recommendations towards agroecological transition across all scales of food systems.
