| dc.description | FAO has been working on an initiative to develop a “lighter”, more concise WOCAT methodology, appropriate for Latin America in terms of structure, content and language. The methodology enhances the original WOCAT questionnaire on technologies towards a more modern and up to date approach. This need emerged after reviewing the advantages and disadvantages of the original WOCAT methodology for documenting conservation technologies during regional expert workshops. Among the limiting factors for ap plication, the experts identified the high time requirement for using the WOCAT questionnaire. Furthermore, the database platform is only available in English and the technology questionnaire and summary do not include climate change. The principal objective of this initiative is to propose and validate a lighter methodology to document soil and water conservation practices for Latin America, including assessment of the resilience of a practice against climate change. A simplified methodology is proposed for documenting new practices across Latin America.
