Humanity’s greatest challenge
• To feed 9 billion people in 2050, we need to produce 70% more food without destroying the environment
• Rising incomes and population are already contributing to:
– Water scarcity
– Land degradation
– Loss of ecosystem services
CGIAR Research Program on Water, Land and Ecosystems (WLE)
Our visionA world in which agriculture thrives within vibrant ecosystems and where rural communities enjoy a decent living and have access to everything they need to
continually improve their livelihoods..

WLE has 3 main goals…
1. To improve food security and livelihoods of farmers through the sustainable intensification of agriculture
2. To improve the sharing of benefits and risks among users of different ecosystem services through policies that encourage collaborative behaviour and dialogue
3. To strengthen institutional arrangements that cut across sectors and national boundaries, foster equitable and sustained development, improve resource governance and support productive and resilient solutions

WLE’s focus on gender…
WLE aims to achieve gender equitable outcomes by:
•Analyzing data from a gender and equity perspective
•Understanding gender-specific barriers for adoption
•Developing gender-sensitive policies
•Identifying ways to improve women’s access to, and involvement in land and water management (e.g. new income opportunities; safer practices for improved health; gender-sensitive policies)

Trade-offs in WLE
• Trade-offs in livelihoods
• Trade-offs – short-term, versus long-term
• Trade-offs in space
• Trade-offs at the landscape scale: struggling with boundaries
• Trade-offs among ecosystem services
