Mountainous areas are often associated with natural beauty and rugged landscapes, but they also present a unique set of challenges for the people who live there. MARGISTAR, a COST Action forum, was established to address these issues and promote innovative solutions towards a greener, digital future.
On October 17-18, Brussels hosted the COST Connect event, “Agriculture and Its Products.” This gathering brought together policymakers, stakeholders, and more than 40 researchers from 20 COST Actions to discuss agricultural research and policies. Prof. António Manuel Teixeira Monteiro from the University of Lisbon, Dr. Irene Christoforidi from the Hellenic Mediterranean University and Dr. Somaye Latifi from the Federal Institute of Agricultural Economics, Rural and Mountain Research (BAB) represented MARGISTAR at the event.
