Substantial transformations are needed to develop sustainable agriculture and food systems in Europe. Agroecology is increasingly seen as an important approach to prepare and guide the transition to sustainable agriculture and food systems. Over the past decade, the concept of agroecology has gained significant recognition in the scientific, agricultural and political fields. In Europe, agroecology has already established itself, in many cases the manifestations of agroecology remain very limited in terms of space and time. The greatest potential of serving as a facilitator for the transition to sustainable agriculture and food systems has not been exhausted. In the EU project, measures are developed for the European level that are needed to strengthen future agroecology in Europe in the areas of research, innovation, networks, training and further education as well as financing.
