Transformative Change for Biodiversity and Equity (TCforBE)
Agricultural biodiversity includes all wild and domesticated forms of life found on farms – from plants and animals to soil organisms, pests and pollinators. Agriculture relies on biodiversity and vice versa. However, agricultural biodiversity is in declining in producing countries due to value chains that are promoting deforestation, biodiversity losss, pollution, land degradation and inequity. To find a solution, the EU-funded TC4BE project will support transdisciplinary research on different dimensions and scales of telecoupled agrifood systems, engaging stakeholders, including EU and producer-country policymakers and indigenous peoples and local communities. This in order to analyse the different pathways for fostering food systems transformations towards biodiversity and equity.
