We engage in participatory science and open science, as well as disseminate our results as broadly as possible, to bridge the gap between science and society. We regularly inform about our Impact activities and related outputs in this section of our website.
Workshop “Rethinking European Rural Development policy: staking stock of local collective experiences and theory” 2nd and 3rd of December 2024
Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) initiatives often aim to incentivize the joint adoption of forest protection and sustainable management practices.

Prof. Kai Chan from the University of British Columbia visited LASEG at ICTA-UAB in December 2019 to discuss the relevance of relational values in the face of non-market food production, environmental conflict and virtual communities.

New special issue focused on climate change policies, natural resources and conflict
