Field/Discipline
Expertise
Socio-economic research in agriculture and land use |Food systems| Regenerative agriculture
The Centre for Sustainable Agricultural Transition (CDLT) works towards an agricultural system that is ecologically sustainable, socially just, and economically realistic. And that starts with collaboration. The CDLT is the crossroads where science and application converge, where innovative ideas are translated into feasible, usable solutions. We are working on a fair food system in which all parties join forces. For agriculture with a future. For the farmer, the soil, and society as a whole.
As a senior researcher, I am partly responsible for the execution of ongoing projects, maintaining our network, and contributing to the development of new projects and products for the CDLT. I also mentor younger researchers in their work.
