Activating Living Labs in Bioregions: HORIZON-CL6-2025-02-FARM2FORK-01

As part of HORIZON-CL6-2025-02-FARM2FORK-01, Korowód is excited to contribute to the development of agroecology and agroforestry living labs as part of the European partnership on sustainable farming transitions.

We are actively building a bioregional platform in Lower Silesia and Central Poland that integrates:

• Agroecological demonstration sites with agroforestry and mixed farmers;

• Partnerships with research institutes (e.g. IUNG, InHort);

• Citizen and farmer-led experimentation;

• Cultural and narrative-based engagement with the public.

Our contribution to the consortium includes:

• An operational context and cross-sectoral local ecosystem;

• A focus on systemic place-based transition pathways;

• A governance framework rooted in participatory co-creation and bioregional identity;

• Integration of educational and storytelling tools for farmer and community involvement.

We aim to connect living labs to food systems, watershed planning, and landscape regeneration, making agroecology not just a practice—but a cultural and economic model.
