A case study on a 'landscape approach' to agroecology. Although its primary audience is policy-makers, this document may hold value for CCRP members, along with others interested in agroecological approaches and agricultural development in East Africa, as an example of an agroecological strategy for development. From the introduction:"Competition for land has increased tremendously with growing population. Very often food, fiber and other land use functions such as biodiversity conservation have been addressed separately, with little synergy sought between one or more functions. Climate change mitigation and adaptation have also been pursued mostly separately. Landscape approaches have been increasingly advocated as a way of bringing about integration and synergy among these multiple functions and thus enhancing effectiveness and efficiency of natural resource management." This policy brief reviews experiences in the Shinyanga landscape in Tanzania in light of synergies between mitigation, adaptation and development. Note: This resource was added to this database as part of a migration of resources from the now defunct CCRP Sphaera platform, and is still awaiting a comprehensive review and quality check.
