Cross-Border Living laboratories for Agroforestry

LIVINGAGRO addresses the challenge of knowledge and technological transfer in Mediterranean agriculture and forestry systems for achieving and sharing good practices aimed at sustainable production, thus protecting biodiversity, enhancing innovation transfer, increasing rural incomes and profitability for all stakeholders involved. Using an open innovation approach for co-creating economic and social values, improving interactions between the supply and demand of innovation, technological transfer and availability of research results, eliminating geographical and cultural barriers across involved Mediterranean countries, two Living Laboratories will be established focusing on olive multifunctional systems (Living Laboratory 1) and grazed woodlands (Living Laboratory 2).
