Background


Steering Committee Meeting,Vila Real, 12-15 December 2002

The European Group of the International Farming Systems Association (IFSA) carries out European Symposia biannually. Past symposia took place in Edinburgh/UK, Granada/Spain, Hohenheim/Germany, Volos/Greece and Florence, Italy

The last two took place in 2000 (Greece) and 2002 (Italy).

This European Symposium addresses all Europeans irrespective their area/region of research and work as well as Non-Europeans working in Europe. It would be highly welcomed, if participants and authors would represent a wide range of European States (EU member States, Central and Eastern Europe).

At world level, the IFSA International Farming Systems Association, also carries international meetings. The last one was the 17th and took place in 2002, in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, USA. Recent IFSA conferences have been held in Chile (2000), South Africa (1998), Sri Lanka (1996) and France (1994). The next will be held in 2004, in UE territory (Portugal).
