On June 28, 2024, the 3rd ISCRAES Conference in Dublin, Ireland featured a workshop entitled “Pros and Cons of Livestock Reintegration,” sponsored by the ReLive Project and funded by ERA-NET.

Prof. Bruce Osborne, ReLive Project Coordinator, introduced the session, which focused on the advantages and challenges of integrating livestock into climate-resilient farming practices. The workshop fostered discussions on innovative solutions and future opportunities for sustainable agriculture.

The ReLive Second Annual Meeting took place on 21-22 March 2024 at Helmholtz-Zentrum Potsdam, Germany. Chaired by Prof. Bruce Osborne and facilitated by Dr. Ibrahim Khalil. 

Presentations highlighted research progress, fostering collaboration. The meeting addressed constraints, risks, and issues, and provided recommendations for future research and communication activities, setting a strategic direction for the project.

The mid-term meeting of our ReLive project, generously funded by ERA-NET, was held virtually on 17th June 2023. It was chaired by the project coordinator, Prof. Bruce Osborne, and facilitated by Dr. Ibrahim Khalil. The meeting brought together 19 participants!

During the meeting, we delved into the progress made, tackled challenges head-on, and devised a stellar roadmap for achieving our goals!

Dr. Khalil unveiled the HOLOS-IE funded by SFI-GOV.IE-ECRRF. 

The journey continues with HOLOS-EU, backed by the ReLive project (funded by DAFM/ERA-NET). 

This ignited discussions on Modelling the Future of Food at AGMIP9 held at Columbia University, NY, USA in June 2023. Over 300 attendees joined at Columbia University in NYC uniting brilliant minds and stakeholders 

Dr. Ibrahim Khalil, our acclaimed researcher, presented the HOLOS-IE project at the BONARES 2023 conference.

The project, funded by SFI-Gov.ie-ECRRF, introduced the framework of a comprehensive landscape model, leading to HOLOS-EU funded by ERA-NET through ReLive project. He highlighted the challenges and the project’s potential societal impact at the national and EU level. We congratulate him.

Dr.Anna Walkiewicz, our esteemed researcher, presented a paper derived from the ReLive project at the prestigious EGU 2023 conference.

She shared compelling insights, impressing the audience and showcasing the project’s potential. We congratulate her for representing our team and pushing scientific boundaries.

ReLive Carbon Credit Team Meeting

ReLive project team dealing with carbon crediting issues organised a meeting recently to address farmers’ needs for GHG calculations, their motivations to venture on such calculations, and how to incentivize carbon credits through GHG mitigation and carbon sequestration. One conclusion was that financial benefits play a major role in implementing the changes needed and that expert advice and support are vital.
