This project is an international collaboration that aims to improve understanding of the change patterns and policy trends affecting change in agricultural landscapes in developed countries, and to identify opportunities and good practices to improve policy integration for sustainable agricultural systems at the local scale.
Outcomes to date have included symposia at international conferences, an edited text, journal articles and reports that progressively enhance conceptual understanding and identify examples of good practice
