Welcome to the X edition of the PhD Students Meeting in Environment and Agriculture (Encontro de Estudantes de Doutoramento em Ambiente e Agricultura–EEDAA)!
This year marks a special milestone: a decade of EEDAA. Over the past ten years, this meeting has grown into a dynamic forum where PhD students come together to exchange ideas, present their research, and build networks across disciplines and between institutions. EEDAA is now more than a scientific event – is a space for inspiration, where early-career researchers contribute to shaping the future of science in the fields of agriculture, environment and sustainability.
The X EEDAA will take place over two days, on December 10-11, 2025, at the at the University of Évora – Mitra Campus (Conference Room). The official language of the Meeting is English.
The EEDAA is particularly designed for PhD students developing their theses in Agricultural Sciences, Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Biology and Ecology, Environment, Sustainability and Socioeconomic Development, Food Sciences, Veterinary Sciences and Animal Production, and related subjects.
Only abstracts submitted by PhD students will be considered for oral communications. However, all other researchers working in the thematic areas of the meeting are invited to participate and submit an abstract for poster presentation.
This event is organised by MED – Mediterranean Institute for Environment, Agriculture and Development and IIFA – Institute for Research and Advanced Training, of the University of Évora, with the support of the Food & Water sub-network of UNIMED – Mediterranean Universities Union.
The meeting also offers a great opportunity to explore the charming city of Évora, a UNESCO World Heritage Site full of history and culture.
We look forward to welcoming you to Évora for this special edition!
