This morning in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Anouk Fraisse, Amila Slijep?evi? and Emmanuel Artus will present the results of their six months of work on the agrarian system and landscape dynamics in the production area of Livanjski sir, Canton 10. Fran?ois Lerin and Claire Bernard-Mongin will then address: ?? the different protection status of agro-sylvo-pastoralism, such as the UNESCO label, ?? and an overview of Geographical Indications, along with the features of the new legislative framework. This event is part of a special morning session titled “Strategies and Tools for Agroecology in Europe”, organized by the @House of Europe in Sarajevo. It will be introduced by the French Ambassador in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Mr. Fran?ois Delmas, and will notably include speeches by Bo?o Peri?, Ministry of Agricuture, Water and Management and Forest, Canton 10, and Alexandre Martinez, French National Agricultural Advisor. It concludes a week-long series of presentations and discussions led by AIDA - Association Internationale pour le Développement de l'Agroenvironnement and by CIRAD, in collaboration with representatives of Canton 10, the Municipality of Livno, and key stakeholders in the sector. The challenges highlighted by the students' work lay a solid foundation for envisioning the development of Geographical Indications in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

?? We hosted on October 7th webinar on "Agroecology Territories" that brought together the ABC Balkans network. The event highlighted the powerful role of territorial collaboration in driving agro-environmental transitions. ??? Our discussions opened with Claire Bernard-Mongin (CIRAD) who emphasized the need for an integrated, holistic commitment to sustainable transitions beyond traditional siloed approaches, recognizing that real change occurs at the territorial level. Cassiano Luminati shared insights on the Val Poschiavo project (Switzerland), who described the territory and the approach to enroll each actor of the food system (from farmers to restaurants). Pierre Friedrich Ribolzi from Centre d'Innovations Sociales Clermont Auvergne - CISCA (France) illustrated the role of territorial mediators as facilitators between political, social-economic, and scientific actors to foster innovation and cooperation for sustainable transitions. ?? We’re inspired by the commitment shown by all participants and look forward to advancing these initiatives across agroecological territories. https://lnkd.in/gQpdYCzQ Orianne Crouteix Jimmy Balouzat #Agroecology #SustainableAgriculture #TerritorialApproach #ClimateAction #FoodSystems #WebinarRecap

Last year with the student of the MASTèRE SPéCIALISé FNS-MI, we did a territorial diagnosis of the four main karst poljes of Canton 10 in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina ???? (Livanjsko, Glamo?ko Kupre?ko, Duvanjsko). ? ?? This year, AIDA - Association Internationale pour le Développement de l'Agroenvironnement is back on this field to continue the work initiated last year, with the support of the Gingko research project financed by the French ANR (Agence nationale de la recherche) : “Geographical indications as common knowledge. Reassessment of current models of regulation and collective action in the context of agroecological transitions" At the end of the month, Emmanuel Artus and Anouk Fraisse from L'Institut Agro Montpellier will go in Bosnia-Herzegovina to carry out an agrarian diagnostic-analysis in a territory which houses a dynamic Geographical Indication : the Livanjski Sir.
