Abstract: ALL- Ready is a Coordination and Support Action (CSA) funded by the European Commission (EC) with the aim of preparing a framework for a future European network of Living Labs (LL) and Research Infrastructur es (RI) that will enable the transition towards agroecology throughout Europe. Based on the premise that agroecology can strengthen the sustainability a n d r e s ili e n c e o f f a r m i n g s y s t e m s , t h e p r o j e c t w ill c o n t r i b u t e t o a d d r e s s i n g t h e m u l t i p l e challenges that they are facing today including climate change, loss of biodiversity, dwindling r e s o u r c e s , d e g r a d a t i o n o f s o il a n d w a t e r q u a li t y , a s w e ll a s t h e s o c i a l a n d e c o n o m i c dimension s of sustainable and resilient agroecosystems. To build the framework of the future European network of living labs and research infrastructures that will enable the transition towards agroecology, we first pointed out the main transformations and changes of paradigms associated with agroecology, then mapped what is necessary for agroecology transition, before specifying what is expected from living labs and research infrastructures to accelerate transition. To outline what is necessary for the agroecosystem and agri-food chain to move towards agroecology, we synthesised scientific literature (reviews and policy papers) on agroecology principles into four mind-maps: values, categories of activities and of policy incentives, and competences and skills. The four mind maps were submitted to stakeholder evaluation and inputs, then translated into synthetic tables. The main characteristics of agroecology LLs and RIs proposed according to the picture formed by the four mind maps are shown in the tables herein. A glossary has been collectively established as an outcome of this deliverable.
