En las últimas dos décadas el enfoque agroecológico se ha ido difundiendo en América Latina, captando progresivamente la atención de varios sectores, desde los ámbitos más académicos pasando por varias instituciones públicas y privadas, y las propias organizaciones y movimientos sociales. Este libro es fruto del Proyecto Escalonamiento de Experiencias Agroecológicas Exitosas en América Latina, financiado por el Centro Internacional de Investigaciones para el Desarrollo (IDRC). En el contexto de este proyecto, "escalonamiento agroecológico" se definió como "un incremento notable

La faim n'a pas disparu, et surtout elle pourrait s'étendre si l'humanité va bien vers les neuf milliards d'individus au milieu du siècle. Il n'est pas certain que le monde puisse nourrir le monde. Les experts internationaux qui négocient dans le cadre de l'OMC sont convaincus que la persistence de soutiens publics à l'agriculture dans certains pays est le principal obstacle actuel au développement des plus pauvres. L'idée paraît évidente, ce n'est pas pour autant qu'elle serait vraie. Pour qu'elle le soit, il faudrait que les denrées agricoles puissent être produites et échangées dans des con

Since 1998, the Dutch Ministry of Agriculture, Nature Management and Food Quality (LNV) promotes development-orientated agricultural and environmental research and strengthening of North-South partnerships through its International Cooperation (DLO-IC) research programme. By 2005, some 70 collaborative North-South projects had been carried out. All science groups in Wageningen University and Research Centre (WUR) were involved in the implementation of the programme and at least half the projects and activities undertaken were directly related to Rural Development and Sustainable Agriculture (RDSA). Facing new challenges with respect to sustainable development strategies for low-income countries, related to global environmental change and globalization of markets, an interdisciplinary Wageningen research group set out to draw lessons from the DLO-IC projects of the last eight years, stimulate discussion and support identification of a future research agenda for RDSA. In that process, special emphasis was given to lessons for future thinking about the contribution of agriculture to: 1) poverty alleviation and rural livelihoods; 2)food security, human nutrition and health; 3) environmental sustainability and natural resource management. In discussing the way ahead, a number of major research challenges, as well as policy questions are outlined. These include the interrelations between climate change and food security and environmental degradation, increased demand for biofuels and animal feed, and competing claims on natural resources, and rural development and livelihood strategies in low-income countries.
