Participants will be able to discuss and understand sustainability in the context of plant science research
Objective
Key objectives for the seminar are that (1) participants will be able to discuss issues of sustainability in the context of plant science research topics, e.g. how a specific research topic is important for understanding and advancing sustainability of plant systems and that (2) participants will be able to phrase their own visions for sustainability in plant sciences, their group work topic and their own MSc or PhD project. Plant science research topics will be on conservation agriculture, agro-ecology, plant breeding for orphan crops and methane emissions from wetland ecosystems.
