This project promotes agroforestry systems (AFS) to restore degraded Mediterranean lands, offering benefits like improved livelihoods, climate change mitigation, and biodiversity conservation. It addresses barriers to AFS adoption by implementing community governance, policy support, and demonstration projects in Morocco, Tunisia, and Türkiye. The project emphasizes involving women and youth, addressing labor challenges, and exploring business models and incentives to ensure sustainable adoption. TRANSFORMED also aims to inform policymakers about AFS’s socio-ecological benefits to support broader implementation.
