Introduction
I am an Interdsciplinary Agricultural Engineer with 10 years of experience. I worked in the field of Agroecology at the FAO, focusing on adaptation and resilience issues. I have now just finished my PhD, that focused on co-designing an assessment method to gain a better understanding on agroecosystems undergoing an agroecological transition. I co-designed this method with a diversity of stakeholders (NGO partners, researchers and farmers). This method is adaptable to diverse use situations.

My PhD focused on the issue of assessing farming systems undergoing an agroecological transition. During my PhD I co-designed a method with NGO partners, researchers and farmers and tested it in diverse situations in Senegal and France.
This method provides a holistic diagnosis of an agroecosystem's undergoing an agroecological transition. It pro...
Assessing the conditions and performance of agroecological transitions in different contexts is key to supporting these transitions. However, assessing agroecological transitions presents methodological challenges, including: 1) being adaptable to local conditions, 2) consideration of social interactions among stakeholders involved in transitions,...
Assessing benefits and limits of agroecological transitions in different contexts is of foremost importance to steer and manage agroecological transitions and to feed evidence-based advocacy. However, assessing agroecological transitions remains a methodological challenge. The objective of this research was to investigate to what extent existing mu...
Poster presented at the European Society for Agronomy (ESA) XVII Congress in Potsdam in September 2022. The related article was accepted in the Italian Journal of Agronomy in June 2023.
There is an inextricable link between our food systems and accelerated climate change.
A growing body of evidence reveals that accelerated climate change has far-reaching
impacts on our food systems, while at the same time, our food systems are adversely
affecting climate change trends.

This study highlights the links between agroecology and climate change, by providing evidence on the technical (i.e. ecological and socio-economic) and policy potential of agroecology to build resilient food systems.
The report aims to answer the following question: How can agroecology foster climate change adaptation, mitigation and resilience t...

Robust scientific evidence demonstrates that agroecology increases climate resilience. Success factors for this are that agroecology builds on: a) ecological principles, in particular on biodiversity, overall diversity and healthy soils (meta-analysis and case studies results) b) social aspects,...
