In diesem Projekt ein so genanntes agentenbasiertes Modell ist vorgeschlagen. Dieser Modell ermöglicht die Auswirkungen dieses Strukturwandels auf die ökologische, ökonomische und soziale Situation landwirtschaftlicher Betriebe darzustellen.

Da bäuerliche Versuche und bäuerliche Entwicklungen eine zentrale Quelle für die Weiterentwicklung des gesamten Agrarsektors sind, ist es von Bedeutung die Elemente und Prozesse bäuerlicher Versuche und Entwicklungen zu verstehen. Ziel dieses Projektes ist die Sammlung und Dokumentation von Beispielen für Innovationen und Erfindungen von Biobauern.

Ziel dieses Projektes ist ein verbessertes Verständnis von Forschung, Versuchen und Entwicklungen von Biobauern, deren Beitrag zu Wissenszuwachs und Innovationen. Es ist geplant Gründe, Motive, Themen, Methoden und die Ergebnisse für/der Versuche zu dokumentieren und Einflussfaktoren auf das Variabilität des Systems „Bäuerliche Versuche“ zu identifizieren.

The ViRTU@LiS (Social Learning on EnVIRonmental Issues with the InTeractive Information and CommUnicAtion TechnoLogIeS) project brings together a consortium of specialists in information technology, sustainable development, environmental modelling, public policy and governance, learning psychology and open learning, to develop computer-based learning tools on ecosystems and natural resources.

SLIM is a multi-country research project funded by the European Commission (DG RESEARCH – 5th Framework Programme for research and technological development, 1998–2002). Its main theme is the investigation of the socio-economic aspects of the sustainable use of water. The project ran from February 2001 to May 2004 and involved about 30 researchers from France, Italy, the Netherlands, Sweden and the UK.

This site aims to provide a practical resource for those who work with communities (in the wider sense of the term) to help them identify and adopt more sustainable practices. This site was initiated in 1998 as part of a PhD thesis, and has developed over the past years as the NRM-changelinks site. During 2007 the NRM-changelinks was discontinued, and has been superceded by this Learning for Sustainability site.

LEARNing is an interdisciplinary project based on interactive approaches and stakeholders’ participation. It aims at building a research agenda for social sciences on R&D in European agriculture.
The main emphasis is to engage stakeholders in a new way of learning in order to tackle new issues like multifunctionality, food safety, rural development, environment.
LEARNing involves eight European countries (Belgium, Denmark, France, Greece, Hungary, the Netherlands, Poland, United Kingdom) and Australia.

The aim of the HarmoniCOP project (2002 -2005) was to increase the understanding of participatory river basin management planning (RBMP) in Europe. RBMP is the integrated cross-sectoral planning and management of river basins if necessary across political and administrative borders. The project’s objective was to generate practical information about participation processes in river basin management and to support the implementation of the public participation provisions of the European Water Framework Directive.
