The FarmForward project aims:
-
to raise awareness of the challenges of agriculture stakeholders, in particular farmers who are facing the increasingly evident impacts of climate change.
-
to enhance the capabilities of agricultural trainers, empowering them to effectively educate about climate change and resilience agricultural strategies.
-
to motivate agriculture professionals and stakeholders to seek innovative solutions and adopt efficient farming practices for climate change mitigation.
The FarmForward project will empower the agricultural community, particularly agricultural educators and future/existing farmers, to actively engage in climate-resilient farming practices. It will offer new methodologies and insights to the agricultural sector, enhancing knowledge and skills in climate-resilient practices. Thus, it will contribute to the global dialogue on sustainable agriculture and climate resilience.
