Abstract:
The national leaders who adopted the 17 Sustainable Development Goals and subsequentlysigned the Paris Climate Accord agreed to an integrated approach across many now-separatepolicy domains. Partial solutions that cause larger problems elsewhere are no longer acceptable.In the land-use sector, the separate histories and institutions for agriculture and forestry work againstintegration. Agroforestry can help as integrating concept to bridge the sectors in a unified landscapeperspective.
ASEAN Member States have an opportunity to use the SDGs, climate-policy articulation and the newstrategic thrust of ASEAN�s Food, Agriculture and Forestry sector to create a more level playing field.By integrating agriculture and forestry as land uses, focus can shift to function over form in achievingmultifunctional tree cover, and helping adaptation, mitigation and ecosystem services.
