Organic food and farming is experiencing a great success. In 2017 51 million ha were farmed under organic agricultural management worldwide while 2.4 million farmers have chosen the organic way. The organic food market was valued at 65 billion euros.
The clear success has opened the way to Organic 3.0 launched at the ISOFAR Symposium in 2015, and further developed at the Organic World Congress 2017 in Delhi.
The organic movement is more than a market. It is part of a larger global movement of agroecologically minded producers and consumers, many operating outside of certification programmes and market transactions. The new strategy promotes sustainable farming and consumption through a widespread adoption of organic farming based on innovation, social inclusion, improvement of best practices and adequate valuing of organic food.
The aim of the workshop is to share views and knowledge to support the agroecological transition to more sustainable agricultural and food systems of tomorrow.

We welcome theoretical and empirical contributions from researchers and practitioners on themes related to the following scientific tracks.
