Con el fin de brindar experiencias, el presente trabajo se desarrolló en fincas de campesinos de La Palma, Pinar del Río, y Urbano Noris, Holguín, dos localidades fuertemente afectadas por la sequía y salinidad en nuestro país. En ambas comunidades, los productores e investigadores han experimentado diferentes alternativas, las cuales transcurren desde sistemas simples para la captura de agua de lluvia hasta la introducción de diversidad en distintos cultivos y nuevas variedades tolerantes a las condiciones locales.
The purpose of the TATA-BOX project was to develop a toolbox to support local stakeholders in the design of an agroecological transition at local level. A participatory process based on existing conceptual and methodological frameworks was developed for the design of new configurations of stakeholders and resource systems in the farming systems, supply-chains and natural resources management that were to form a new agroecological territorial system. This process, presented here, was adapted and tested on two adjacent territories in south-western France.
This book presents feedback from the ‘Territorial Agroecological Transition in Action’- TATA-BOX research project, which was devoted to these specific issues. The multidisciplinary and multi-organisation research team steered a four-year action-research process in two territories of France.

This paper describes the strategic approaches to the development of a climate-smart village (CSV) model in the groundnut basin of Senegal. A CSV model is a participatory integrated approach using climate information, improved context-based technologies/practices aiming at reaching improved productivity (food and nutrition security), climate resilient people and ecosystem and climate mitigation.
In this study, it is applies a participatory scenario modelling framework to assess potential societal responses to the impacts of climate change by the mid-21st century, and model consequent land use and land cover change scenarios under different livelihood futures as guided by communities’ members in the areas under investigation. The authors focused their analysis on two montane sites of the Eastern Afromontane Biodiversity Hotspot , the Taita Hills, Kenya, and a montane area north-west of Jimma, Ethiopia
This presentation addresses the topic of sustainable agricultural intensification and gender- and age-biased land tenure systems in Africa.
