Closing symposium in Avignon

To bring to a close the work carried out over the four years of the project Olive For All, the French team is organizing a symposium from April 23 to 26, 2025 in Avignon. The researchers involved in the project will present a synthesis of the work carried out in the three countries. It will also be an opportunity to open up new perspectives, consider the future and see how work can be pursued, by inviting other researchers to reflect alongside the project teams. The colloquium will be structured throughout a series of presentations, meetings, round-table discussions, tours and tastings.
