AGROFORESTEAM is an international project that aims to transform Mediterranean agriculture by promoting territorially adapted agroforestry systems. At its core is the development of Multi-Actor Platforms (MAPs), collaborative spaces that bring together farmers, researchers, policymakers, businesses, associations, and other local actors. These platforms facilitate the integration of scientific and practical knowledge, identify barriers and opportunities, and co-design agroforestry solutions tailored to each region’s specific needs. MAPs foster dialogue, mutual learning, and innovation, and serve as tools for community empowerment. MAPs actively promote the participation of women and includes the gender perspective in the transition toward more sustainable, resilient, and equitable farming systems. By placing MAPs at the heart of its strategy, AGROFORESTEAM find that its actions are grounded in territorial realities and collective intelligence. This approach is operationalized through a series of interconnected Work Packages, each addressing key dimensions of agroforestry transformation across the Mediterranean. AGROFORESTEAM will document traditional and innovative techniques, co-design agroforestry systems, monitor agronomic, environmental and economic performances of already on-going case studies and elaborate learning materials and capacity building activities.
