... This is a resource for organisations and individuals advocating about sustainable development issues in Burma. This resource provides information about the concept of sustainable development and about the government of Burma’s commitments and responsibilities when it comes to sustainable development. Sustainable development is development that does not damage the environment or the country’s natural resources, and that meets people’s needs, including the needs of the most vulnerable communities. Sustainable development relates to many aspects of the natural world and of people’s lives.

En este estudio se evaluó la sostenibilidad de los agroecosistemas tradicionales y alternativos de producción de maíz en tres Ejidos de la Región Selva de Chiapas, mediante la aplicación del enfoque agroecológico (MESMIS). El estudio se realizó en dos ciclos agrícolas: milpa y tornamil. En el primero se evaluaron los sistemas de roza-tumba-quema (R‑T‑Q), sin quema y en sucesión de nescafé (Mucuna deeringiana Bort.). En el segundo ciclo se analizaron tres sistemas sin quema con diferentes periodos de nescafé, y se modificó la densidad poblacional para analizar su efecto sobre la producción.

Existing approaches and methodologies that investigate effects of land degradation on food security vary greatly. Although a relatively rich body of literature that investigates localized experiences, geophysical and socioeconomic drivers of land degradation, and the costs and benefits of avoiding land degradation already exists, less rigorously explored are the global effects of restoring degraded landscapes.

The results of this study reveal that the full inclusion of crop production in the forest landscape restoration approach could produce largescale,
worldwide benefits for food security and therefore facilitate a wide uptake of restoration practices and the implementation of large
restoration projects. The positive impacts are multifaceted and significant in size: a reduction in malnourished children ranging from three
to six million; a reduced number of people at risk of hunger, estimated to be between 70 and 151 million; reduced pressure for expansion
