Agroecology is a transformative approach to enhance resilience and climate change adaptation in agriculture and food systems
Agroecology is an integrated approach aimed at enhancing the sustainability of agriculture and food systems, extending beyond mere agricultural production to include the entire food journey from production to consumption. The 13 agroecological principles (HLPE, 2019) can be tailored to local contexts and needs, resulting in a various agroecological approaches on different scales.
The factsheet “Agroecology – From Principles to Transformative Pathways” gives an insight in how the 13 principles of agroecology can be used to shape a pathway for food and agriculture systems transformation.
Five projects, from India, Mali, Global, Regional in Sub-Sahara African, and Mexico share their lessons learned and how they used the principles to define their pathway towards sustainable food systems transformation. From designing a systemic approach for food systems transformation to tailor a strategy which supports rural women to create community benefits, to cross-sectoral approaches to integrate biodiversity protection and its sustainable use into agriculture systems.
The following short movies showcase best practice examples for agroecology and climate change adaptation for the transformation of agri-food systems. The movie series “Living Adaptation” consists of five clips: One overarching movie summarizes the topic broadly, whereas four examples from India, Ethiopia, Madagascar and the southern African region provide hands-on experiences and local voices.
