| Kurzbeschreibung | The aim of this lecture series is to offer students and the interested public a deeper insight into the fundamentals of agroecology and its potential role in transforming food systems. For more information on the public lecture part of this course, please visit: https://worldfoodsystem.ethz.ch/outreach-and-events/past-events/agroecology-lectures-2021.html | ||||
| Lernziel | Students know the elements of agroecology and are able to critically reflect on the important properties as well as benefits and trade-offs of agroecological systems and approaches. Students are able to understand and explain how the 10 elements could be implemented as guiding principles for policymakers, practitioners and other stakeholders across the food system in planning, managing and evaluating agroecological transitions. This course enables students and an interested public to engage in a lively and critical debate and to learn about scientific contributions to agroecology. Based on the knowledge gained, students are able to form a personal opinion on the role of agroecology and to reflect on the different facets and real-world applications supporting a transition towards sustainable food systems. | ||||
