CIFOR–ICRAF publishes over 750 publications every year on agroforestry, forests and climate change, landscape restoration, rights, forest policy and much more – in multiple languages.

CIFOR–ICRAF addresses local challenges and opportunities while providing solutions to global problems for forests, landscapes, people and the planet.

We deliver actionable evidence and solutions to transform how land is used and how food is produced: conserving and restoring ecosystems, responding to the global climate, malnutrition, biodiversity and desertification crises. In short, improving people’s lives.

Ten principles to apply at the nexus of agriculture, conservation, and other land uses

There's been little consensus on applying 'landscape approaches' and 'ecosystem approaches': general principles and guidelines have been largely missing. This presentation gives an overview of work by CIFOR and partners in refining 'landscape approaches' and gives ten principles for a landscape approach at the nexus of agriculture, conservation, and other competing land uses. CIFOR scientist Terry Sunderland gave this presentation during Tree Diversity Day, held on 11 October 2012 at the 11th Conference of Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD COP11). Tree Diversity Day was organised by the CGIAR Research Program on Forests, Trees and Agroforestry. For more information visit www.worldagroforestry.org/crp6/events/tree-diversity-day-cbd-cop11
