This episode of the Composing Green podcast series, recorded in 2023 by Damien Helly, explores how agroforestry connects science, culture, and artistic practice within broader debates on climate, biodiversity, and rural transformation. Bringing together Maya Marshak, Patrick Worms, Francesca Camilli, and Zayaan Khan, it presents agroforestry as both an environmental approach and a form of cultural heritage that has largely disappeared from European landscapes.  

Through discussions on colonisation, rural marginalisation, and the loss of ecological knowledge, the podcast highlights how artistic methods such as sound, visual archives, and historical representations can deepen scientific inquiry and public engagement. The episode argues that stronger interdisciplinary collaboration, supported by EU institutions, could help link environmental action with cultural dialogue, fostering more resilient landscapes and more inclusive forms of cooperation.
