Climate change and conflict
In 2024, many of the young partners that SIANI has worked with over the years have both received and provided new opportunities to the network since they engaged with SIANI.
In 2024, Alnarp’s Agroecology Farm collaborated with SIANI to publish its first Amplifying Stories of Agroecology Practices and Principles (ASAPP) case study. This project has become more than just a document, it has sparked discussions, inspired students, and strengthened the farm as a hub for sustainable agriculture.
Since 2015, SIANI has collaborated with its expert groups to contribute to a holistic understanding of emerging issues and foster regional action and collaboration. Many of these groups remain connected to the network years later and continue making meaningful change in their regions.
