The role of agriculture in the context of climate change was one of the topics discussed at COP30, the 30th UN Climate Change Conference, which is currently underway in Brazil. In addition to large-scale global negotiations, we need people who are committed to climate protection and sustainable agriculture at the local level. One of these people is Jasmin Hufschmid, who speaks in our series "Voices on climate".

Jasmin Hufschmid has been climate project manager at Bio Suisse, the umbrella organisation for Swiss organic farmers, since 2022. In this interview, she explains why she is committed to organic farming and climate action, how research and practice should go hand in hand, what is expected of her as a young person, and why networking and collaboration are more effective than black-and-white thinking.
