IAVFF takes over from Agreenium

IAVFF, France's Agricultural, Veterinary and Forestry Institute, is taking over the actions initiated by Agreenium. The primary mission of Ce nouvel institut is to enable its members to work together to formulate training and research strategies that they will then implement through shared projects. It coordinates a network dedicated to training teaching, educational and supervisory personnel in mainstream, technological and professional agricultural education that brings together the members of the Institute participating in these training modules. It also implements stronger mechanisms for cooperation to draw up a map of agricultural training programs and coordinate teaching and research in the field of veterinary science.
