Grassroots Science Wageningen- Socially driven initiatives that tackle global problems

“Socially driven” initiatives, by for example farmers, consumers, civil society organisations, sometimes in collaboration with scientists, constantly emerge in the face of ­poverty, social injustice, hunger, natural resource degradation, environmental decline and other (global) problems. Some of these initiativ

es contain practices that promise more sustainable livelihoods for the people on the ground while simultaneously tackling global problems. Many initiatives stand in stark contrast and sometimes even contradict with the “technologically or market driven” solutions implemented by many scientists and policy makers. With “grassroots science”, representatives from a selection of these types of initiatives will present their struggles, achievements and their views on how these can contribute to positive social change. We invite you to participate in a journey full of exiting examples of good practices, local initiatives, grassroots organisations, farmer groups, and others who successfully contribute to social and environmental justice. With this series, we aim to provide clear alternatives that work. Grassroots Science is a collaboration between RUW Foundation, Otherwise and Boerengroep, three organisations from Wageningen.
