Strengthening capacities by introducing new agriculture techniques and supporting them by developing and implementing projects in climate-resilient agriculture.
Mareen Zeitelhofer studied agricultural sciences and then completed her master's degree in agri-environmental management. She learnt about how climate change is affecting agriculture and vice-versa. In her second year of the master program, she did a research project about how heat and cold stress are affecting the physiology of 21 selected chickpea varieties.
