Summary
This report is the result of a joint research partnership between the UNDP Equator Initiative and Ecoagriculture Partners. It follows closely on the heels of McNeely and Scherr’s book, Ecoagriculture: Strategies to Feed the World and Save Wild Biodiversity. Although ecoagriculture is a new concept, it is an umbrella term encompassing several landscape scale strategies designed to enhance and protect biodiversity and ecosystem services while simultaneously achieving food security. The Equator Initiative took an interest when it became clear that ecoagriculture as an approach and set of practices was highly relevant to their mission of increasing the capacity of local communities to enhance biodiversity while reducing poverty in the tropics.
