This brief gives an overview of available
knowledge on agroecological approaches in
the Mekong Region, focusing on agroecological
solutions that aim to protect ecosystem
functions and thereby to create environmentally positive agricultural landscapes.
More specifically, this brief:
- Puts agroecology on the map, by showing
where experiences have been documented
-Assesses what agroecological solution
types are used either in isolation or in
combination, and what ecosystem services
they target
- Identifies targeted transformations
(modernisation of traditional systems,
diversification of industrial systems,
restoration of degraded land)
- Assesses how women are integrated
within agroecological initiatives, and how
these initiatives can contribute to more
gender equality
