Around the beautiful city of Genova (Italy)! VEG-ADAPT was present in the streets of Genova to join the Italian National Festival of Science on October 11-23th 2021. An infographic titled "TOO HOT TO EAT" was created using augmented reality showing the aims of the project.

The infographic has been hung up at the bus stops in the city center for about 15 days allowing general audience to know about the project contents walking in the city.

VEG-ADAPT has succeeded in selecting the 24-member VESAL: a collection of tomato, pepper, and melon #Mediterranean local varieties tolerant to #climate change-induced stress
