Sessions during the Conference
Block A - Methodology for integrated assessment
Alternative methods for integrated assessment of agricultural systems and contributions to rural development are presented. Methods for up- and downscaling are discussed.
Session A-1 Methods for integrated assessment of agricultural systems and land use
Session A-2 Methods for up- and downscaling in integrated assessments
Session A-3 Integrated assessment of ecosystem services from agriculture
Session A-4 The organization of tools for integrated assessment - standards or diversity?
Block B - State-of-the-art of components of integrated systems
Progress in modelling tools and their use for supporting policy assessment on agriculture, rural development and sustainable development. Focus in these sessions is on components rather than on entire systems: assessment capability at field, farm, regional, continental or market level; indicators, databases and software engineering.
Session B-1 Sector and Computable General Equilibrium modelling tools for policy assessment
Session B-2 Indicators for integrated assessment
Session B-3 Cropping system modelling
Session B-4 Bio-economic farm modelling
Session B-5 Integrated assessment methods for regional and landscape levels
Session B-6 Software infrastructures and tools for integrated assessments
Session B-7 Databases for integrated assessment of agriculture and rural development
Block C - Case studies and application of tools and empirical methods
Empirical applications, using modelling tools, to specific cases, policy areas and public concerns
Session C-1 Integrated assessment of biomass for biofuel or renewables – trade-offs with feed and food
Session C-2 Modelling adaptation and mitigation strategies to cope with climate change
Session C-3 Application of integrated Impact assessment tools
Session C-4 Systems analysis informing policy – case studies from agricultural systems and rural regions in the face of change
Block D - Integrated assessment science and impact
Explore the broader societal use and impact of integrated assessment tools, including the contribution of science-policy interaction.
Session D-1 Innovations in rural areas
Session D-2 Role of integrated assessment for policy
Session D-3 Capacity building and education of using impact assessment tools
Session D-4 Use of models by stakeholders
