The provision of this service is available in two options: 1) including group facilitation (available in English and Portuguese); 2) in the format of consultancy to a user (or group of users) that will be responsible for the implantation and facilitation of the group.

It can be applied to support collective decision-making or vision building for specific agrifood value chains or regions. The problem structuration is part of the tool that encompasses, for instance, the assessment of agroecology (or other sustainability approaches, such as regenerative farming) practices and strategies, the design of sustainability, or the agroecological transition roadmap.

The tool can be designed and implemented in the context of RI (research infrastructures), KICs (Knowledge Innovation Communities), Living Labs, or other collaborative environments. It can also support the design of collective regional smart sustainable strategies (RIS3 and RIS4).

It contributes to develop transdisciplinary research and interaction skills by discussing, reflecting and deliberating on their own views, identifying relevant consensus/dissensus and finding ways to converge to common understanding on the socioeconomic benefits and socioecological trade-offs of agro-ecological transition, including an operationalising of socioecological synergies and trade-offs between the concepts of sustainability and resilience in agriculture and agrifood.
