Natural resources management for resilient inclusive rural transformation

Increasing land and water scarcity, unequal distribution and competition over resource use, land degradation and biodiversity loss, exacerbated by climate change, question the capacity of current models of agriculture growth to sustain inclusive resilient rural development. This paper invites to integrate in rural development policies and investment a focus on sustainable, inclusive and adaptive management of natural resources. It combines a conceptual framework based on scientific literature with illustrative examples enriched by the perspectives of the experts participating in two workshops. It proposes 4 key pathways (resource efficiency, systems diversification, sustainable bioeconomy, and landscape approaches) to achieve more inclusive and resilient agrifood systems.
