Conteúdo: | Socio-ecological systems can greatly bene?t from integrative approaches that combine formal and informal knowledge to address current sustainability problems associated with global change. The increasing attention paid to local knowledge in recent years results from the recognition that the knowledge of people who have been closely interacting with their environment for a long time can o?er many insights about the sustainable management of natural resources. Participatory methodologies used to develop a ?hybrid? knowledge base, combining local and scienti?c knowledge, re?ect an e?ort to understand the complexity of the land management decision making to promote and protect multifunctional land uses. Increased concern about soil management as a key determinant of sustainability in agricultural landscapes has led to the identi?cation of early warning indicators to monitor changes in soil health, and their impact in the provision of ecosystem services, as a?ected by land use change and agricultural intensi?cation. This is part of a continuing e?ort to develop land health monitoring systems that strengthen local environmental/agricultural institutions and communities with tools that support local decision-making in natural resource management and promote sustainable land use in agricultural landscapes. Development of this participatory research approach has undergone several rounds of South-South collaboration and it is currently being adapted and further developed in Brazil as part of a CIAT/Embrapa/ ICRAF collaborative project with ?nancial support from CNPq and Embrapa.
