Agroecology Promotion Programme APP
Switzerland has been one of the front-runners positioning agroecology globally to support food systems transformation, notably following the aftermath of the UN Food Systems Summit in September 2021. This Agroecology Promotion Programme strengthens this momentum, by supporting the capacitation of, dissemination and implementation by leveraging actors to further embed agroecology within the civil society, policies and markets, globally, in Sub-Sahara Africa and South-East Asia.

Hintergrund | The past few years have seen increasing severe strains leading to a global crisis in terms of food security and nutrition, in particular in Sub-Sahara Africa and South-East Asia. Under the momentum of the UN Food Systems in 2021, a growing set of actors are positioning agroecology as a compass to support food systems transformation. Further efforts are required to trigger real systemic change, by empowering civil society, informing and influencing policies, and seeing the development of agroecological markets notably by empowering the consumers to demand for more agroecological healthy products – and to connect these developments from the local to the global level. |
Ziele | Agroecology is broadly promoted as a pathway for food systems transformation to truly sustainable, resilient, localised and healthy food systems, worldwide and in particular in Sub-Sahara Africa and South-East Asia. |

Mittelfristige Wirkungen |
Outcome 1 : Civil society stimulates, as organisations, rural populations, women, youth, smallholder farmers, are empowered to act upon, demand, and implement improved food systems through agroecology. Outcome 2 : Policies progress, as policy-makers and governmental officials recognise the value of agroecology and adopt it as a means / compass to transform their national and regional food systems. Outcome 3 : Markets develop, as market actors (consumers, producers, small and medium enterprises) gain further knowledge, networking and financial resources to align with agroecological principles and generate appealing and economically sound localised and healthy markets. |
