Managing Sustainable Transitions in Agriculture: Newer Directions for Research and Civic Action (MST 2023)
November 16-18, 2023, Anand, India
The conference on “Managing Sustainable Transitions in Agriculture: Newer Directions for Research and Civic Action” aims to bring together the two streams of sustainability transition scholars and those working on rural and agrarian studies on a common platform. The conference seeks to deepen conversations across disciplines (natural and social sciences) and actors (social movements, civil society organisations and state agencies working on sustainable agriculture) on processes and practices that would enable better articulation of a new paradigm for agrarian change that is both socially just and ecologically viable. The conference is proposed as a stock-taking of ongoing research, a way to bring together multiple research streams and an opportunity to create a platform for continued understanding and engagement that could seed a network of scholars engaged in articulating this alternative agroecological paradigm. More details on themes and context of the conference is available at https://irma.ac.in/conference/mst-2023/home
