Her inter and transdisciplinary interest include participation in Living Labs in the context of agri-food systems in Europe, in projects such as Agroecology for Europe (AE4EU) and currently in the European partnership on accelerating farming systems transition through agroecology Living Labs and Research Infrastructures."
Olivier Ejderyan is a human geographer and group leader at FiBL, the Research institute of Organic Agriculture in Frick, Switzerland. His research focuses mainly on the interplay between the social, technology and nature to construct liveable worlds. He has coordinated transdisciplinary research projects on river management, geo-energy and more recently on the role of technology in organic agri-food systems.
Mª Helena Guimarães is a Senior Researcher at the Mediterranean Institute for Agriculture, Environment, and Development (MED) at the University of Évora and a member of the Global Change and Sustainability Institute (CHANGE). Her research focuses on the interactions between humans and nature from a social-ecological perspective. She is actively engaged in the coproduction of knowledge to inform actions aimed at transforming social-ecological systems. Governance has become a central theme in her work, as many of the challenges she addresses stem from the ways people and institutions interact. In 2016 she started a dialogue platform that, after 8 years, still serves as a transdisciplinary problem framing space. In 2021, she co-edited the book Governance for Mediterranean Silvopastoral Systems, the first publication to explore the human dimension of these systems in detail.

Session Abstract | ||
Our diverse panel, including researchers at different stages of their careers, discusses the realities of living out a professional life within an ITD field, highlighting the delicate balance between creativity and risk. The discussion will extend beyond academia, exploring pathways within and outside the traditional academic structure. Panellists will share unique experiences, offering a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted ITD career trajectory, and address crucial questions about fostering ITD curricula integration and creating more positions for researchers within academia and at the science-society interface. Join the panel and gain valuable insights into the evolving landscape of ITD scholarship and contribute to shaping the future efforts to foster ITD curricula. Don’t miss this opportunity to understand the challenges and possibilities within the ITD career path and engage in a constructive conversation about its transformative potential. The audience, thus you, will be involved interactively, thus come and voice your perspective too. BinBin Pearce is an assistant professor for policy analysis and design at Delft University of Technology, in the Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management, based in the Netherlands.
