Our approach departs from four observations :

pictogramme environnement et société

Multidimensionality

Our approach looks at environmental, economic and social challenges of farm and food systems, striking to balance ecological boundaries and society’s essential needs.

Interdisciplinary

Embracing interdisciplinarity, our work integrates agronomy with political, economic, and social sciences to address the complexity of food systems.

Participatory approaches

By using participatory approaches, we value diverse experiential knowledge and produce results grounded in the realities of farm and food systems.

Multiple scales

Our approach looks at multiple scales of transition, including the meso-level which bridges micro-level practices with macro-level policies.
