With this renewed Strategic Research Agenda, F ACCE-JPI will create valuable knowledge and impact to feed into policies and practices, continuously contributing to tackling the societal challenge of transformation towards sustainable agriculture respecting natural boundaries, securing biodiversity, and reducing emissions while at the same time contributing to climate neutrality, and sufficient and healthy food and diets. FACCE-JPI consists of 23 European members and New Zealand as an associated member, with a governing structure that connects relevant national ministries, policy makers and funding organisations and has access to and is guided by the latest scientific expertise and stakeholder advice. Since 2010, FACCE-JPI has united its members to align research efforts in order to tackle societal challenges related to food security, agriculture and climate change. So far, FACCE-JPI has funded over 120 projects worth a total of €250 million of funding, involving roughly 900 project partners from nearly 500 organisations in mainly newly established collaborations. This research has not only given rise to over 600 publications of high scientific quality, but it was also invaluable for capacity building and providing training for over 300 PhD students. This updated SRA outlines how FACCE-JPI will continue to align and co-design research and deliver knowledge for addressing the challenges of sustainable and resilient agricultural production systems integrating the interdependent climate system, food system and ecosystem. In four core themes, this SRA outlines a path towards an agricultural sector that respects the planetary boundaries, preserves and encourages biodiversity, reduces emissions and inputs, embraces new approaches such as agroecology, and at the same time provides a sufficient and healthy diet. |
