Descripción
The rationale of this fact sheet raises awareness of the policymakers and relevant Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems. This initiative promotes an “adaptive management” approach to exploring and developing novel social, economic and governance processes that strengthen the existing livelihood and management practices that generate sustainable agriculture and rural development – that is, enhance the ecosystem goods and services and provide other globally important outcomes such as cultural diversity and indigenous knowledge systems. Ultimately assists the traditional and family farming communities living in and around GIAHS in establishing strengthened socio-political (governance) and economic processes that help them address the challenges of globalization and make the most of the opportunities of modern living, while at the same time maintaining agro-ecosystem goods and services.
