BIOSEFAIR metaprogramme

Objectives

Biosefair aims to approach research linking biodiversity and ecosystem services in a way that is open to a diversity of points of view and disciplines (including agronomic, environmental and human and social sciences).

Governance

The metaprogramme is managed by a unit comprising a Director and co-manager who determine the scientific approach, and a project leader responsible for operational aspects.

Genesis

The IPBES has sounded the alarm bell about the rapidly declining state of biodiversity and ecosystem services throughout the world. In addition to the loss of ecological diversity, dwindling biodiversity is also threatening many human activities.

INRAE metaprogrammes

In 2019, the FAO issued a warning about the threat to activities as vital as agrifood systems.
In light of these major challenges, the metaprogramme Biosefair, one of the multidisciplinary research programmes INRAE has put into place, seeks to mobilise research and a range of perspectives and disciplines (including agricultural, environmental, human and social sciences).
