What are transformative land investments?

TLI calls for more transformation land investments to deliver more sustainable food systems. Such investments take a holistic, systems perspective that simultaneously creates environmental, social, economic and societal values while preventing and addressing any value destruction that may inadvertently emerge. This involves developing innovative and integrated solutions to systemic problems confronting marginalized populations and fragile landscapes.

 

Sustainable food systems

TLI generates food and nutrition security by adhering to agroecological principles and practices while promoting environmental stewardship, economic growth and human well-being – ensuring food stability for future generations.
