Here will come links, contact details and so on to the UNMEASURED Living Labs

UNMEASURED works through a Living Lab approach in which farmers, civil society, researchers and other actors take part in the joint development and testing of new tools. Living Labs are understood as co-creative spaces for learning, reflection and territorial transformation. The project includes Living Labs and territorial agroecological networks in Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Romania and Spain.

Living Labs

This gives UNMEASURED a strong transnational foundation for developing methods that are both robust and sensitive to local differences:

Living Labs

The Living Labs span diverse biocultural regions:

  • In Denmark, the LL innovates solutions for smallholder agroecology in the industrialised landscapes of Jutland.
  • In France’s Auvergne, actors co-develop ethical livestock models through networks of consumer-farmer partnerships.
  • In Germany, a dynamic farmer-led network in Schleswig-Holstein leads efforts to regenerate soils, supported by advisory services and regional institutions.
  • In Hungary, a national network engages farmers, youth, researchers, and civil society to build bioregional resilience and agroecological know-how through dialogue and training.
  • In Italy, a biodistrict on the Murgia plateau bridges organic farming, rural innovation, and cultural revitalisation, while addressing depopulation and land degradation.
  • The Dutch LL, located in the South Veluwe watershed, centres on storytelling and cultural memory to ‘scale deep’ agroecology by cultivating care, reciprocity, and territorial identity.
  • In Romania, the LL in Transylvania’s Kalotaszeg region activates traditional peasant networks and biodiverse landscapes to address intergenerational justice, land access, and social cohesion.
  • Finally, in Spain, the Iberian Participatory Guarantee System network operates as a translocal LL where farmers, citizens and researchers co-develop criteria to assess agroecology from an ecofeminist and sovereignty-based lens.
