Can livestock be part of the solution in Europe’s agricultural landscapes? 🐄🌍
We present a #BioculturalDiversity framework that reframes low-input animal farming as key to biodiversity, climate resilience & heritage. Case studies: 🇩🇪 peatlands, 🇪🇺 Med wildfires, 🇦🇹 hay milk.

Today I have officially started working with @plieningerlab.bsky.social and the Social-Ecological Interactions Group, as an Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellow @humboldt-foundation.de. I'm excited about our upcoming research on agroecology and conservation and grateful for the support and welcome

What happened in the social-ecological interactions group @Uni Kassel & @Uni Göttingen in 2023? An overview of our research:
1) Landscape approaches are close to our heart & we explored them in a global analysis of socio-ecological production landscapes: doi.org/10.1007/s116...

First chapter of my #PhD published 🥳

Thanks to the co-author team from ZALF and Uni Warsaw. Also very grateful to two amazing anonymous reviewers and the editors of the Journal who put a lot of work into this as well.

A very nice, personal story by Mario Torralba about a (once, now established) early career researcher's pathways through the study of social-ecological interactions.#PeopleNatureLandscapesBlog. medium.com/people-natur...

Participating in @plieningerlab.bsky.social research retreat was a great opportunity to meet and work with bright and kind colleagues. I am grateful for such a warm welcome and for the generous and insightful conversations around sustainability. Looking forward to continuing our collaborations 🙌🌱

"Transforming the Mediterranean region through agroforestry: Large scale restoration of degraded lands by overcoming the socioeconomic & sociocultural barriers for agroforestry adoption". We're proud to be part of this new EU-PRIMA-funded project, coordinated by Laura Armengot. More infos soon!

Come work with us at #UniKassel – PhD position stellen.uni-kassel.de/jobposting/9... “Water governance and institutional fit as drivers of provisioning of nature’s contribution to people (NCP)”

Please spread the word!
Enclosed a shorter version (25') of our survey (in English, French, German & Dutch) to characterize agroecological initiatives across Europe and conditions for their scaling out 👉 ee.kobotoolbox.org/x/f6Gtgsw7
Your participation would really help us. Thank you! #agroecology

"...the landscape is constituted as an enduring record of -and testimony to- the lives and works of past generations who have dwelt within it, and in so doing, have left there something of themselves". Ingold 1993 The temporality of the Landscape. What testimonies might we leave behind?

On the occasion of the PhD defence of M. Scarlato, WUR and PE&RC are organizing a half-day symposium on “#Agroecology and ecological intensification: perspectives from Europe and Latin America”.
⏰ 08/11, 08:30-12:30
There is the option of joining online 👉 www.agroecology-transect.net/events/agroe...

Important contribution to advance our understanding of the multiple dimensions, perceptions and consequences of land abandonment in rural landscapes.
