Scenario development for climate-resilient food futures
This webinar introduces an accessible framework for scenario development, as used within the Eco-Ready project. With climate, food, and biodiversity policy landscapes rapidly evolving, scenarios offer a valuable tool to explore future uncertainties and inform proactive strategies. The session will guide participants through key methodological steps, with interactive elements to apply the concepts to their own contexts.
Planning for contingencies in food security
This session explores how contingency planning tools can strengthen food system resilience under conditions of uncertainty. Drawing on experiences from across Europe, the webinar introduces a flexible, IT-supported contingency planning guide developed within Eco-Ready, designed to integrate diverse scenarios, data sources, and AI support. Participants will gain practical insights into how to structure effective contingency responses in policy and practice, tailored to evolving climate and food security challenges.

Forecasting tools for decision support in food systems
Forecasting plays a critical role in strategic food system planning. This webinar introduces a tool-supported methodology for selecting appropriate forecasting approaches based on key indicators. Participants will explore how to link forecasting models with realworld databases on food security and biodiversity.

From data to decisions – AI for food security under climate and biodiversity stress
This advanced session explores how artificial intelligence (AI) can be applied to anticipate and manage food security risks emerging from climate change and biodiversity loss. Through real-world use cases — including seafood safety, mycotoxin risk in cereals, and pest forecasting — participants will learn how AI supports early warning systems and policy decisions. The webinar also covers ethical and explainable AI practices to ensure trust and transparency in riskbased decision-making.

Applying life cycle assessement in climate resilient food systems
This session provides a practical introduction to Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and its application within the Eco-Ready project. It explains how LCA is used to evaluate the environmental and social impacts of agricultural systems, supported by concrete examples from Living Lab case studies. The webinar also explores how LCA results contribute to long-term scenario analyses and inform decision-making within the Eco-Ready Observatory.

Understanding the MAGNET Model – Insights into Global Agricultural Scenarios
This webinar introduces the MAGNET model – a global, economy-wide model used to project long-term developments in the agriculture and food sectors. Participants will gain nsights into how MAGNET supports scenario analysis for climate-resilient food systems, including how the model operates, what data it uses, and how its results feed into the Eco-Ready Observatory. Real-life applications from case studies will highlight the value of MAGNET in shaping agricultural policy and strategy for 2050.

Remote sensing for smarter farming: Earth observation in agrifood systems
This technical webinar offers an introduction to Earth Observation (EO) and remote sensing tools for monitoring agricultural and environmental systems. It covers the principles of satellite data use, key indices (NDVI, EVI, NDWI, etc.), and cloud-based platforms such as Google Earth Engine, Copernicus Browser, and EarthMap. Participants will learn how EO supports decision-making in food security, biodiversity, and climate resilience, and how to conduct timeseries analysis using real-world datasets.
