This collage showcases the responses of undergraduate students at Ithaca College, US, to the question of what agroecology means to them, presented as keywords and with corresponding graphic representations. As a whole, it illustrates how young people understand agroecology after learning about its components, processes and outcomes for a semester.
Students developed the poster during the Fall 2025 semester during the course ENVS 28000 – Socioecology of Biodiversity in Agroecology at Ithaca College, NY, United States.
The poster was made by students under the supervision of Georgina M. Catacora-Vargas during her time as a Fulbright Scholar in Residence at the Department of the Environment, Ithaca College, NY, United States. Georgina is a Bolivian agroecologist, researcher and former negotiator in various UN processes. She works as professor of Agroecology at the Academic Peasant Unit ‘Tiahuanacu’ of the Bolivian Catholic University, and is the President of the Latin American Scientific Society of Agroecology (SOCLA).
