This year marked a milestone in the history of GGAA. With over 450 participants from around 50 countries, GGAA2025 reflected our community’s truly global reach. Since its first meeting, GGAA has continued to evolve and grow in scope and themes, reflecting advances in science and the changing realities of agriculture and climate. During the opening ceremony, we highlighted challenges and opportunities for mitigating greenhouse gas emissions from ruminant livestock in Latin America, Africa, and Asia. This year we presented nine themes addressed in eight keynote presentations and 17 breakout sessions across livestock, climate, and sustainability. We also succeeded in sponsoring more than 50 researchers, including many students from non-OECD countries, whose voices are essential for shaping the future of our field. GGAA2025 placed strong emphasis on scaling solutions and addressing regional priorities, such as carbon finance. With the presence of the World Bank and IFAD, alongside our partners and sponsors, we hosted side events that brought greater focus to specific issues vital to Africa and low- and middle-income countries from Asia and Latin America. The combination of cutting-edge research, regional dialogue, and global policy engagement ensured that GGAA2025 was a platform for academic exchange addressing directly realworld problems.

NORSØK og NIBIO har gjennom flere år brukt det globale verktøyet SMART Farm til å analysere bærekraft på en rekke norske gårder i ulike forskningsprosjekt. En grundig sammenligning mellom SMART Farm og KSL viste stor grad av overlapp (Eiter m.fl. 2025) på mange områder innen blant annet dyrevelferd, helse, miljø og sikkerhet, produktkvalitet, bruk og håndtering av gjødsel og plantevernmidler, kildesortering og håndtering av avfall. Bøndene som driver i henhold til KSL oppnår derfor gode resultater innen disse områdene. Samsvaret mellom de to systemene bekrefter den høye graden av tillit som norsk matproduksjon har blant forbrukere. SMART Farm inneholder en del viktige indikatorer for bærekraft som ikke fanges opp av KSL. Dette handler i stor grad om sosial og økonomisk bærekraft, som blant annet lønnsomhet, arbeidsmengde, ferie og fritid, rekruttering, økonomisk sikkerhet ved sykdom, bondens dugnadsinnsats i lokalsamfunnet og bondens bidrag til å skape arbeidsplasser.

This paper examines the World Health Organization (WHO) within the broader context of the post-1945 liberal international order. It begins with a brief historical account of the establishment and development of WHO, emphasizing its role as a central institution for global health governance. Particular attention is given to the role of the European Union’s (EU) member states and the United States (US) in supporting the WHO through financial contributions, personnel secondments, crisis assistance and capacity-building measures. The paper then explores more recent developments, notably the US withdrawal from the WHO during the first and second Trump administrations and the termination of key US aid programs. Finally, the implications of this withdrawal are analysed, both for WHO’s operational capacity and for transatlantic relations, with consequences for challenges such as the global fight against HIV/AIDS, antimicrobial resistance, drug and vaccine development and emergency preparedness. Keywords: World Health Organization; United States; European Union; COVID-19; public health emergency; International Health Regulations

Edible coleopteran insects are an important source for sustainable protein and generating chitin as a significant waste (exuviae, cuticle residues, and frass), which can be valorized into value-added biopolymers. These side-streams can be diverted for chitin and chitosan production due to their biocompatibility and biodegradability in biomaterial applications which gained attention in recent times. Therefore, this review evaluates various types of chitin and chitosan extractions and their structural characterization suitable for industrial applications. The nutritional and bioactive functionalities of chitin as derived from coleoptera insect side-streams were critically discussed. Furthermore, it also distinguishes the presence of α-, β-, and γ-chitin polymorphic forms exhibited in the coleopterans order with recent research gaps was also discussed herein. Currently, there is no literature review that describes the roles of coleopteran side-streams derived chitin and chitosan. Hence, this review not only underscores the potential for chitin production from coleopteran side-streams but also outlines critical bottlenecks that warrant further investigation in biopolymer chemistry. Moreover, it provides comprehensive recommendations to facilitate the scale-up of chitin and chitosan derived from coleopteran side-streams as an added advantage for new business models.

Agricultural production is highly dependent upon pollinators to achieve maximum yield and increase global food security. Wild pollinators, such as bees, are declining due to a loss of habitat from agricultural intensification, and the use of domesticated honeybees to supplement pollination services is increasing. Apple is an important, pollinator dependent food crop that commonly experiences pollination and production deficits worldwide. In this thesis, I explored whether pollination and production deficits occur in Norwegian apple orchards and what factors might be driving potential deficits. To test for pollination (seed set) and production (yield) deficits I conducted a supplemental pollination experiment for three cultivars, in eighteen orchards, in two distinct growing regions in Norway, over two years. I also assessed which pollinators are present in Norwegian apple orchards and how different groups of bees and their behaviour affect pollination of apple. Lastly, I studied different management practices to increase bee diversity and pollination success, by increasing alternate floral resources and evaluating orchard design that promotes cross-pollination. Pollination and production deficits were found across all locations, with differences in pollination deficits among cultivars. I also found that a high abundance of wild bees increases seed set in apples—a key indicator of pollination success. Behaviour also varied among bee groups, for example bumblebees visited more flowers, while solitary bees were slow, but potentially more thorough, foragers, which increases pollen deposition. Wild bees visited more apple flowers than dandelion flowers (Taraxacum spp.) when orchards were left unmowed. I also found that a higher abundance of dandelions increased bee visitation to apple flowers, suggesting higher floral diversity can increase pollination success and support a greater diversity of bees. In addition, block design orchards appear to limit cross-pollination among apple cultivars, and management actions to decrease the distance among compatible apple cultivars is needed to achieve sufficient pollination. Overall, my results suggest that greater pollination and production of apples in Norway is possible, and management actions should focus on increasing wild bee abundance and diversity, increasing alternate floral resources, and optimising orchard design to facilitate cross-pollination across shorter distances. Such actions have the potential to ensure greater yields of higher quality apples for human consumption and increased economic output for farmers.
