Agroecology Now! is a research, action and communications collective that focuses on understanding and supporting the societal transformations necessary for agroecology and food sovereignty to thrive.
We are committed to co-producing and mobilising knowledge with civil society organisations, intergovernmental bodies, policy-makers, researchers, food producers and other actors to advance agroecology, food sovereignty and the right to food.
Our work especially stresses the importance of People’s Knowledge and using participatory, transdisciplinary and action oriented approaches in research and teaching.
We are also involved in a sequence of related projects, and the outcomes and publications arising from our work can be viewed on this blog, read here, viewed here or listened to here.
¡AgroecologyNow! grew out of research groups at the Centre for Agroecology, Water and Resilience but now has a more dispersed, polycentric network structure involving transformative agroecology researchers from the UK, Europe and the US including researchers at the following institutions:
- The Centre for Agroecology, Water and Resilience
- The UVM Institute for Agroecology
- The Agroecology Lab at the Université Libre de Bruxelles
- SDU Food Lab
- Institute of Sociology and Peasant Studies at the University of Cordoba
- Institute of Development Research at BOKU
We are an independent horizontally organised collective sharing a vision and a spirit of mutuality, care and solidarity. Together we facilitate and participate in actions of people seeking food sovereignty and of those confronting inequalities, injustice and oppression in food and farming systems.
