The CIRAD is the French agricultural research and international cooperation organization working for the sustainable development of tropical and Mediterranean regions.\nWhat is the role of rural territories?\nThe question appeared clearly a development issue for the Mediterranean especially\u00a0South Mediterranean countries appealing for a more supportive regional cooperation.\u00a0\n\nAn active debate held on the 22nd of January 2018.\u00a0\u00a0Vincent Bonneaud \u00a9 CIRAD, 2018.\nOur increasingly globalized, uncertain world has raised interest in the term \u201cterritory\u201d, a type of area within which new forms of governance and solidarity are constantly being invented. \u201cWhether you\u2019re in the Pennines, in the wide savannahs of Maasailand in eastern Africa, the high Andean mountain terraces of Peru and Bolivia, or amongst the stout white and red manor houses in the valleys and hills of Basque country in the Spanish Pyrenees, there\u2019s a sense of pride in common identity and heritage\u201d.\n Camilla Toulmin from the University of Lancaster stresses in her foreword to the book \u201cLiving territories to transform the world\u201d. \u201cThis strength of rural solidarity is not surprising since it is less than ten years ago that world population swung from being predominantly rural to urban.\u201d\nHow to meet the UN Sustainable Development Goals?\nRural areas have seen a constant fall in population levels, yet almost half of the world\u2019s people still live in them. They would even seem to be one of the keys to action in favour of sustainable development and to meeting the UN Sustainable Development Goals.\n\u201cThe way in which stakeholders in rural territories work together to successfully navigate this ever-changing world is truly enlightening&#8220;, \u00c9lodie Valette, a geographer at CIRAD who co-wrote the book \u201cLiving territories to transform the world\u201d, published in 2017, explains. \u201cPlacing oneself on a local level serves to reveal ways of supporting global change, adapting to it, or limiting its effects\u201d.\nAgriculture : the world\u2019s largest employer\nThe book, published in the &#8220;Agricultures et D\u00e9fis du Monde&#8221;, coordinated by CIRAD and the AFD, the French Agency for the Development, shows how agriculture, the world\u2019s largest employer, could contribute to the rebirth of rural territories such that they serve to ensure food and nutritional security and human and environmental health, help adapt to and anticipate climate disruption, support the energy transition and shared economic growth and decent jobs, reduce migratory tensions, and anticipate conflicts.\u00a0\n\nProduction: Caroline Dangl\u00e9ant and Vincent BonneaudFilm and editing: Vincent Bonneaud \u00a9 CIRAD, 2018\nThink locally, act globally?\nThese three days of exchanges, focused on two topics: innovation, coordination and regulation; and territorial development and globalization: think locally, act globally?\nWe can note down the contribution from the following fellow partner\u00a0:\n&#8211; Sara Scherr, economist, President and CEO of EcoAgriculture Partners, Washington DC (USA);\n&#8211; Saskia Sassen, sociologist, Robert S. Lynd Professor and member of the Committee on Global Thought, Columbia University (USA);\n&#8211; Bruno Losch, lead political economist, CIRAD (South Africa);\n&#8211; Martin Bwalya, representing the New Partnership for Africa\u2019s Development (South Africa);\nThe debate covered a panel discussion, led by Patrick Caron, a CIRAD researcher who chairs the UN Committee for Food Security and Nutrition\u2019s.\nDiscover out our latest videos about the economic news in the Mediterranean :\u00a0\n\n\n","author":75,"featured_media":4088,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","tags":[5761,5763,2961,5760,5750,5769,5772,5759,5762],"location":[],"class_list":["post-28907","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-decision-makers","tag-direct-broadcasting","tag-institutions","tag-mediterranean-exchanges","tag-news","tag-only-for-you","tag-photos-videos","tag-politics","tag-trending"],"short_url":"","have_related_news":"true","chapo":"A global economy, large-scale movements of people, goods and ideas, galloping urbanization, etc. In a changing world, what is the role of rural territories for the Mediterranean?
