Component 1 is aligned with Component 1 of the FOLUR Impact Program – Development of Integrated Landscape Management Systems. It aims to enhance the enabling environment for landscape-scale interventions based on comprehensive land use planning, that are necessary to foster a transformational change in food systems and land use that is more productive, and more socially and environmentally sustainable. The change that can be expected as a result of interventions through Component 1 of the project relates to the pathway to change shown on the left-hand side of the Theory of Change diagram – the establishment of an integrated land use planning and management system at all levels, building on the emerging government integrated National Land Use Planning Policy. This will, in turn, lead to higher level change through better land use planning decisions that protect biodiversity, ecosystem services and carbon sinks – by promoting restoration of degraded lands, sustainable intensification on the existing agricultural footprint, and participatory forest management of remaining forests. Components 2 and 3 apply this integrated landscape planning and management approach in the crop farming, coffee producing, agroforestry and forest management sectors.
