This partnership aims to structure and support a network of living labs and research infrastructures accelerating the transition towards agroecology throughout Europe. These living labs and research infrastructures will support farmers in understanding and implementing agroecological practices at the scale needed for positive economic, environmental and social impacts. The European Commission chose the livings labs approach because agroecology is territory-bound and more important changes in ecosystems happen slowly so it is important to look at the same area over a longer period of time to determine the effects.
The partnership is supported by the standing committee on agricultural research (SCAR) which has been in existence since the seventies.
