Delivering climate change outcomes with agroecology in low- and middle-income countries: evidence and actions needed
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/114993
Abstract
Food systems need to meet food security, nutrition and environmental goals, especially in a world with growing demand and a changing climate. There is now broad consensus on the need to transform current food systems towards more sustainable models. Agroecology is increasingly seen as a framework to transform food systems. A key question is: how far can agroecology meet the…
