Agroecology, various approaches in Europe.

An audiovisual support to teach agroecology.

This film was made in the framework of the Erasmus+ project called "Euro-EducATES, Teaching agroecology in the transitory period and its consequences for the Agricultural Knowledge Systems."
It starts in September 2015 and ends in August 2018.

This European project aims to professionalize and assist teachers and trainers in agricultural schools in order to implement the environmental objectives initiated by the European Union. We develop common and innovative European educational tools to support teachers and trainers to teach agroecology.

There is not one definition of agroecology in Europe, yet agroecology can be considered as a science, a set of practices, a social movement.
The aim of this film is to illustrate the diversity of approaches of agroecology in the partners countries through different points of view (research, practices, education, public policies) :
