This week, the 2024 GRÓ LRT cohort of fellows visited the headquarters of the Agricultural University (AUI) of Iceland in Hvanneyri, West-Iceland. The visit began with a warm welcome from the the Director of International Relations and Research, Christian Schultze, with introduction to the strategy, educational- and research programmes, as well as history of the university and Hvanneyri.
