I gave a keynote talk at the #ils4 conference in Granada inviting legume researchers to reflect on the gap of influence between value-chain actors and which policies support legume-based cropping systems

🌱 🌱 🌱 Are you aware of the policy paradoxes of underutilised crops? @ESSRG colleagues investigated the implications of the current governance of agrifood systems on the use of underutilised crops in @eu_radiant. Do you have other examples? Share here: radiantproject.eu/policy/

👏Final coordination committee meeting of @COACH_EUProject - a lot to share on Collaborative Agri-food Chains and what drives innovation in Territorial Food Systems - Check out our resource repository: hub.urgenci.net/houses/territo…

Stay tuned for further steps of how this unfolds 👉👉 essrg.hu/en/coevolvers/

What this methodology enables: Helps people involved in a practice to organise and communicate what they have learned, discover better ways to perform and improve practice.

Can we let ourselves interpret our practices - critically and collectively, in a participatory way? Our senior researcher, György Pataki talked about the @coevolvers Living Lab Methodology, a novel way to reflect on practice-based learning.

🌍 Current global food systems are contributors to climate change because they account for approximately 35% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, leading to biodiversity loss and water pollution,. Find out how #RADIANTPROJECT is contributing to agri-food sustainability.

Congratulations to one of our new medicine laureates: Katalin Karikó (@kkariko)! 🎉 An interview with her will be coming soon.

@eu_radiant creates great taste in underutilized crops. This time leafy-green-powered favorites are on the table. With an incredible food champion like Avelino Ormond at Biofortinas, Terciera, it is a truly remarkable project!

Congratulations @essrg colleagues, Vanda, Emese, and Dia, for the fantastic #PlanEAT event this Thursday - presenting results from the food environment mapping! It's a huge milestone! Thanks to the 30+ participants representing the Horeca sector and our main collaborator, VIMOSZ.

Enlightening presentation from @essrg colleagues on alternative grain economies. Stay tuned for a video and training course.

Beacons of hope from the COACH project, the Collaborative Agri-food Chains: Driving Innovation in Territorial Food Systems and Improving Outcomes for Producers and Consumers, the final conference strated

So impressed by the dedicated farmers, millers, bakers, brewers, and consumers creating healthier, more just, and resilient food systems 🥐🥖

50 years ago, on February 7, 1973, I won my first science medal at an open biology exam in my high school, Kisújszállás, Hungary. The second award I received was the Rosenstiel award in February 2021.

See the big picture: How does #innovation address global problems? I will discuss with 4 experts from 4 continents #RRI #COCHANGE2020 Join us and register: lnkd.in/dn96XFhUthe @TechEthosEU @rosie_open @essrg @nieminenmp @B_FroehlichRath @spielkamp @mirkoschaefer @Johan_Schot
