This video summarizes the study "The potential of agroecology to build climate change resilient livelihoods and food systems" which highlights the links between agroecology and climate change, by providing evidence on the technical (i.e. ecological and socio-economic) and policy potential of agroecology to build resilient food systems. The report aims to answer the following question:

How can agroecology foster climate change adaptation, mitigation and resilience through practices and policies?
Inspired by the idea that transformation will only happen through a coordinated approach among all levels, this study aims to combine evidence from a broad range of backgrounds and perspectives.

The study was conducted by Biovision Foundation and the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation FAO.
