Conference: “Local and Global: The Agri-Food Sector Takes Responsibility”

Faculty of Sciences, Triolet Campus, Building 10, Lecture Hall 10.01 – Place Eugène Bataillon, 34095 Montpellier.

As part of the Sustainable Development and Social Responsibility (DDRS) initiative for the SPA2E master’s program (Agricultural Resource Sciences and Processes for Food and the Environment), the EnvAgroTech association is organizing its annual scientific conference.

This year, the theme chosen for this event isthe use and promotion of agricultural resources.

The goal of the conference is to facilitate a discussion around this framework, thereby highlighting the importance of sustainable development, eco-design, and the food systems of the future.

Representatives from companies, startups, and the research community will be on hand to contribute to this discussion. The goal is to demonstrate that sustainable development is a collective effort and that it must restore value to our food.

To this end, a series of afternoon lectures will be held. These will cover various topics focused on the utilization of biomass, specifically byproducts from our industry. We are pleased to welcome Hélène Angellier-Coussy, who will present her work on the development of bioplastics from agricultural lignocellulosic residues—a resource that is currently underutilized. We will also welcome a representative from Antofénol, a startup seeking to guide and advance research on the utilization of wine-making waste. Other speakers will join us to further explore our central theme.

The event is open to everyone!
