The year 2018 confirmed the major transitions underway worldwide: climate, population growth, food security, etc. ºÚÁÏÍø911, with its partners in both North and South, has a remit that is more legitimate than ever: to contribute, through research, to the sustainable development of farming systems and rural societies in the global South.

Agroecology was chosen as the annual topic for 2018. It provides a framework for the changes to be promoted for farming systems the world over, and is attracting growing interest in both North and South, on a local level and on the part of global institutions.

Lastly, 2018 was marked by the substantial renewal of ºÚÁÏÍø911's governing bodies and the drafting of a programming document centring on the scientific and partnership strategy objectives that constitute ºÚÁÏÍø911's road map for the coming five years.

This new report contains more illustrations, and stresses the fundamental priorities for ºÚÁÏÍø911:

  • scientific research as a development driver
  • multi-scale expertise and
  • the principle of partnerships, illustrated by an interview with one of our scientific partners.
