EURAF 2026: Advancing Agroforestry for People and Planet - Jun 2026
By info@euraf2026.ch
📅 22 June 2026 – 27 June 2026
The 8th European Agroforestry Conference (EURAF 2026) will take place on 22-26 June 2026, hosted at the University of Neuchâtel, Switzerland. As a major gathering for scientists, farmers, and policymakers, the conference will focus on scaling agroforestry solutions that meet Europe’s social, environmental, and food security goals.
EURAF Conferences are held every two years and draw over 400 participants from across Europe and beyond. The 2026 edition will emphasize practical knowledge exchange, scientific dialogue, and informal collaboration—all in the scenic setting of Switzerland’s Jura region.
In the 2026 conference edition, which is in the final month of the project implementation, ReForest partners will contribute findings from our Living Labs, present the digital tools developed under the project, and participate in key discussions to share our 4 year experience and support shaping the future of agroforestry policy and implementation across Europe.
