Recently, institutional members of the Agroecology TPP came together to discuss progress and set priorities for the future in the first Members Forum meeting – an annual gathering in which representatives of key stakeholder groups and institutional members of Agroecology TPP examine the latest research findings and key knowledge and implementation needs, and address other pressing issues and topics.

Held on 22-23 February at the Agropolis International headquarters in Montpellier, France, but also catering for online audience, the two-day event was the first of its kind due to COVID-19-related restrictions experienced over the last couple of years, which made it difficult for the members forum to meet in-person and engage in group debates and discussions. 

Although thought of as a member-only meeting mainly attended by representatives from member institutions, including research and donor organizations as well as civil society, the Members Forum meeting also included a session open to Agroecology TPP’s Community of Practice (CoP), which delved into Agroecology TPP’s current project portfolio and results so far.
