The scope of the training ''Agroecology in the 2021-2027 Multi-annual Financial Framework of the European Commission's Directorate-General for International Partnerships (DG INTPA)'' that was held on 3 and 4 November 2021 was to raise awareness on the meaning, role of and country experiences in agroecology and to provide concrete clues and guidance for programme formulation (e.g. entry points, indicators, etc.).

In her welcome words Carla Montesi, Director “Green Deal, Digital Agenda”, DG INTPA, underlined the extreme relevance of Agroecology (AE) in the efforts to manage and mitigate Climate Change. The European Union is very committed to promoting this approach in international cooperation and in regular programmes on agriculture and nutrition. All Multi Indicative Plans (MIPs) include references to sustainable agrifood systems. Such interventions need to be in line with AE principles to reach the climate and biodiversity targets.
