On 25-26 May 2016, the Plant Production and Protection and Land and Water divisions of FAO Rome convened in Nairobi a Regional pol-icy dialogue on ecosystem services from sustainable agriculture for biodiversity conservation. The event brought together some 50 participants from government agencies, academia, NGOs and FAO country offices, with the overall goals to:<ul> <li>Raise awareness on the key linkage between the conservation of agricultural ecosystem services and biodiversity, and the ben efits that ensue from this for agricultural production; and</li> <li>Establish mechanisms for cross-sectoral co-ordination geared towards the formulation of policies that support ecosystem services and biodiversity in Kenya – and more broadly within countries of the East African Community.</li></ul>
