…and we are starting with a conference in Portugal, which will be hosted by our consortium partner CEIFAcoop together with the municipality of Lourinhã in Central Portugal.

The conference is part of a series dedicated to “Climate Change: Quo Vadis, Lourinhã?” and will take part from 14.-16.02.2020. Throughout the 3-days workshop on “Agriculture, Food and Climate” different stakeholders will gather and share their experiences on the topic.

Day 1 will start with a colloquium to introduce the topic, followed by a poster session and discussion before ending the day with a “show cooking” event on healthy food. On Day 2, participants will have the opportunity to visit sustainability-oriented local enterprises and a local ONG initiative. The closing day offers the experience of a hands-on field activity, where participants can actively work on the cultivation of hedges for biodiversity with autochthonous and climate-adapted plants.

We are very happy to also share the great news, that this event is the fruitful outcome of the focus group discussion taking place in the region. If you are interested in participating yourself, register for free via www.ceifacoop.pt

… and it’s time to meet again, this time in Northern Germany, where our scientific co-lead, the University of Vechta, is located. Despite cold and rainy weather outside, we were very productive: besides preparing the final elements for our WP 1 report, we started working on WP3 and 4 already, which aim at transformative and even unusual learning settings that support the SDGs implementation as key drivers of innovation and change in the agribusiness and food production sector.

Our second day was dedicated to a field excursion, where we explored a pig farm (www.goldschmaus.de) and DIL (German Institute of Food Technology).

The last day was used for reflecting on the learnings that we can draw from the first year and what can be improved, both in terms of project flow as well as project coordination.

Building on this, we established an outline for the second project year, which will include plenty of interactive learning elements (our so called SDGs Innovation Labs and SDGs Co-Learning Labs), both specifically for existing companies, as well as for knowledge exchange and shared practices among different stakeholders linked to the agribusiness and food production sector. We are ready for 2020!
