#Agroecology as the path to #ClimateResilient and just food systems
By Dr Susan Chomba, Director Food, Land and Water at World Resources Institute Africa
Monday, July 28, 2025 — updated on August 02, 2025
"The 2nd National Agroecology Symposium, held in Nairobi from July 10–11, 2025, marked a pivotal moment in #Kenya’s food systems transformation.
"The event brought together farmers, researchers, civil society, private sector actors, media, and policymakers with one clear message: Agroecology must move from the margins to the centre of national agricultural strategy. It is not just an alternative; it is the most viable path forward to achieve our intertwined goals for #people, #nature, and #climate—without compromising one for the other.
Agroecology offers a coherent framework for #RegeneratingSoils, producing safe and nutritious food, and building #ClimateResilient and #equitable #FoodSystems."As #ClimateChange intensifies, this approach provides Kenya and other #AfricanNations a powerful opportunity to lead a just transition—rooted in #LocalKnowledge, backed by #science, and responsive to the realities of #smallholder #farmers.
A crossroads for Kenya’s food systems
"Kenya’s food systems are at a crossroads. The dominant model—based on chemical-intensive agriculture and ultra-processed foods—is driving soil degradation, poor nutrition, increased prevalence of non-communicable diseases, and the pollution of our rivers and lakes. This model also contributes significantly to #biodiversity loss and #GreenhouseGasEmissions.
"Alternatively, a more resilient and #sustainable path is within reach—one that aligns human health with ecological integrity. But this transition cannot be left to smallholder farmers alone. It requires coordinated leadership from governments—particularly ministries of agriculture, health, environment, and finance—as well as development partners, scientists, and the private sector.
"Farmers should not be expected to feed a growing population and withstand escalating #ClimateShocks while being under-supported or misdirected by ineffective policies and subsidies. Without the right investments and incentives, we risk deepening the crisis.
What agroecology is—and isn’t
"Agroecology is too often misunderstood as a nostalgic return to low-productivity farming. In reality, it is a sophisticated, evidence-informed, and farmer-driven approach to transforming food systems in ways that are locally appropriate and ecologically sound. It is not a one-size-fits-all solution, but a dynamic practice that integrates scientific research with #TraditionalKnowledge.
"The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) outlines 10 elements of agroecology, while the High-Level Panel of Experts (HLPE) has identified 13 principles. These include #RecyclingNutrients, enhancing biodiversity, strengthening synergies, and co-creating knowledge."

I’m a full time #carer so I’m generally having to fight for things that should be universal rights, which takes up a surprising amount of time - and all other interests are squeezed around or related to that!
Work is all things #LivedExperience perspectives and especially getting these to shape research.
Life in the gaps is mostly being a totally novice #smallholder, a guardian of many animals and a pretty decent cocktail maker. -
Slow down, to take a look at our #photo essay on local #drought experiences of #smallholder #farmers in #Morocco https://www.emerald.com/insight/content/doi/10.1108/DPM-06-2022-0134/full/html
An open access blogpost on the article can be found on the blog of our research group: https://medium.com/people-nature-landscapes/impressions-of-drought-in-morocco-f9f200854b12
The early cite version has been out for a while. Now you can read it in good company though, among lots of other great articles, in the latest issue of #Disaster Prevention and Management: https://www.emerald.com/insight/publication/issn/0965-3562/vol/31/iss/5

Hey, I´m new here, so time for a short #introduction:
I´m an #openscience advocate with roots in #geography, working with #earthobservation & other #geospatial data. Reading all things related to #python, #rstats, #QGIS & #machinelearning. Researching in #landsystem #science, #landuse in #agriculture, currently trying to find #fields in #smallholder landscapes.
Let´s connect & (re)build a strong community!
