On the occasion of the “Cyprus Capacity Building for LIFE – Cyclamen” LIFE Project’s delegation visit to Athens, the Greek LIFE Task Force organized a workshop on the networking of Greek LIFE projects. The event took place on Tuesday July 2 at the headquarters of the Green Fund at Villa Kazoulis.
Among the projects that participated and were presented during the workshop was LIFE GAIA Sense: A European project coordinated by NEUROPUBLIC, and co-funded by the LIFE Programme of the EC.
The project is based on the gaiasense smart farming system and aims to present the way in which gaiasense contributes to the conservation of natural resources, to environmental protection and more generally, to circular economy models.
Vassilis Protonotarios, NEUROPUBLIC’s Outreach & Networking Manager, participated in the Workshop and presented the LIFE GAIA Sense project, its objectives, the methodology it develops as well as the the progress it has made during its first year of operation.
The presentation focused on the gaiasense smart farming system, with references to the system’s concept, its four dimensions, the role of technology, scientific results, data and human factor, as well as the benefits (environmental, financial etc.) resulting from its application.
After the end of the presentation there was a number of questions from the participants, who showed special interest in the approach followed by the project, as well as the gaiasense system. In addition, during the break, opportunities for cooperation between LIFE GAIA Sense and other projects participating in the event were discussed, extending the system’s activity to new contexts and examining new potential applications.
