Sharing Agroecological Innovations

ETHZ D-USYS, Department of Environmental Systems Science

  • For many agroecologists, the sharing of one’s research is fundamentally important. How can innovations be shared efficiently and accessibly for diverse stakeholders? We created two videos highlighting tools like Design Thinking and real-life scientific experience.
