To critically evaluate the conditions in which place-based public food procurement networks, utilising open-source socio-technical innovations can scale to deliver the transformative changes needed for socially just transitions in food systems.
The project aims to fill the scientific knowledge gap in peat-free plant production in ornamental horticulture.
DAISY - DigitAl, technologIcal and Social innovation mixes enabling transformation for biodiversity and equitY
Marginalised women-led smallholder farmers who rely on livestock for nutrition, income, and as a safety net, often have limited capacity to mitigate climate change impacts on livestock productivity.
This project aims to quantify the temporal changes of flow patterns in the River Niger.
This pilot project will explore spatial transitions and relational transformations experienced by animals due to interventions in their lives by humans
This PhD project investigates the ways in which collaborative practices of natural resource planning, management and ownership are currently being pursued in Wales and with what effect.
True project aims to identify the best routes, or “transition paths” to increase sustainable legume cultivation and consumption across Europe.
This project will determine the ability of purpose-built, large-scale biofiltration cells downstream from a large informal settlement to treat contaminated runoff resulting from dysfunctional sanitation and limited urban drainage infrastructure.
This project looks at how sustainable management of the Liben Plain enhances livelihoods and food security for 10,000 pastoralists, prevents mainland Africa’s first bird extinction and integrates biodiversity conservation into Ethiopian rangeland recovery.
Blooms for Bees aims to promote bee-friendly gardening and encourage citizen scientists from across the UK to explore the presence and floral preferences of bumblebees in their gardens and allotments.
The aim of this two year KTP project is to investigate the value of water managed green infrastructure in urban areas to improve biodiversity.
This research aims to assess the impact of this policy change on farmers through environmental, technical and economic perspectives.
The benefits of green roofs individually include the improvement and reduction of energy consumption, while a concentration across a large area has been proven to reduce temperatures in the surrounding climate.
This project evaluated key aspects of the CSM functioning in the context of the UN Committee on World Food Security (CFS) as it is today, 8 years after the Reform, and 3 years after the last evaluation.
This project from the Centre for Agroecology, Water and Resilience (CAWR) aims to critically examine the emergence of what we call ‘austerity retail’ initiatives amidst rising food poverty in Britain. These include ‘social supermarkets’ and other forms of ‘community shop’ offering highly discounted products, and often making use of ‘surplus’ or ‘rejected’ foods which would otherwise be thrown away.
The overall aim of the ‘Organic-PLUS project’ (O+) is to provide high-quality, trans-disciplinary, scientifically informed decision support to help all actors in the organic sector, including national and regional policy makers, to reach the next level of the organic success story in Europe.
Agroecology Now! is a research, action and communications project convened by the Centre for Agroecology, Water and Resilience that focuses on understanding and supporting the societal transformations necessary to enable agroecology as a model for sustainable and just food systems.
Adopting a holistic and multi-actor approach, HOMED aims to develop a full panel of scientific knowledge and practical solutions for the management of emerging native and non-native pests and pathogens threatening European forests.
The extension of the Master Gardener Programme from a community to a prison setting was in recognition of research evidence that showed a range of positive outcomes associated with the role of horticulture in supporting physical, emotional, behavioural and social wellbeing.
