SUMMARY:MAIA Policy Roundtable & Workshop: The Role of Regions in Sustainable Food Systems Transformation
DESCRIPTION:As part of the 22nd European Week of Regions and Cities\, the MAIA Project is organizing a Policy Roundtable and Workshop on October 8\, 2024\, focusing on the critical role of the global food sector in addressing greenhouse gas emissions. This hybrid event will spotlight the progress of regions in promoting shorter supply chains and sustainable food systems\, as part of the broader efforts to combat climate change. \nWhile the EU has made significant progress in reducing emissions across various sectors\, the food sector lags behind. It is essential to deliver effective policies that address this gap\, promote food security\, and reduce harmful emissions. This event will explore these challenges and showcase best practices from regions leading the way in sustainable food transformation. \nKey Workshop Objectives: \n\nUnderstand the impacts of sustainable agri-food transformation on climate and biodiversity.\nExplore EU policies and initiatives\, such as the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and the EU Farm-to-Fork Strategy.\nFacilitate knowledge exchange and best practices for sustainable food systems.\nAddress the environmental and social impacts of promoting sustainable food systems.\nDevelop actionable recommendations to support sustainable food systems at regional\, national\, and EU levels.\nFoster collaboration among stakeholders for stronger local and regional policies.\nShowcase MAIA’s tools and services that support the transition to sustainable food systems.\n\nThis event will bring together regional representatives\, experts\, and stakeholders to share insights on these critical topics. The roundtable will be followed by a participatory workshop where citizens will have the opportunity to propose solutions for promoting local products and advancing territorially tailored policies. \nSign up for the event HERE

SUMMARY:Navigating Agroforestry futures in Europe: Insights from ReForest project and FarmTree® Tool
DESCRIPTION:June 27 @ 14:00 pm CET\nonline\nAgroforestry holds immense benefits for farms\, the environment\, and society at large. Yet\, its widespread adoption faces significant challenges\, including the uncertainty surrounding expected environmental and profitability outcomes. \nDrawing insights from data collected from ReForest Living Labs across Europe\, the FarmTree Tool emerges as a digital solution to this challenge. This software-based model\, accessible through an easy-to-use online interface\, and connected to a scientific species database\, empowers land users to craft agroforestry systems and anticipate their performance across production\, financial\, and agro-ecological dimensions. The tool allows to flexibly design unique agroforestry systems in an online environment (in terms of species composition\, arrangement\, and management)\, and offers a comprehensive overview of the farming system performance. \nThe FarmTree Tool integrates site-specific data such as: \n\nfarmer information\,\nplot design and management\,\nclimate conditions\,\nsoil composition\,\nand species unique characteristics.\n\nBy synthesizing these inputs\, the tool generates modelling projections for the envisioned agroforestry scenario over a defined period of time. \nThe upcoming event presents a valuable opportunity for farmers\, advisors\, researchers\, policymakers\, and all stakeholders working in agroforestry to learn more about the practical applications of the FarmTree Tool within the ReForest and European context. \nKey webinar topics and themes include: \n\nOverview of the ReForest project: Living Labs data generation for Farmer and Policy Support (Prof Ing Martin Lukac PhD\, ReForest project coordinator);\nFarmTree tool: a digital solution for designing\, comparing\, and reporting impact of agroforestry systems (Steffie Rijpkema\, MSc – Coordinator Innovation Team) \nA practical application of the FarmTree Tool: examples from ReForest Living Labs (Marina Alarcón\, MSc – Agroforestry Impact Quantification Expert at FarmTree)\nWhat tooling functionalities and digital solutions do diverse European agroforestry practitioners need? (interactive session) (Marina Alarcón\, MSc – Agroforestry Impact Quantification Expert at FarmTree)\n\nAs a webinar participant\, you will get temporary access to temperate agroforestry species with your FarmTree Tool registration (for free)\, to explore the potential of the tool for your context! \nTo ensure your participation\, register now and secure your spot by completing the simple registration form. Following your registration\, further details pertaining to event access will be shared. \nWe are looking forward to your participation!
