Landscape resilience knowledge alliance

for agriculture and forestry in the Mediterranean basin

Engaging with farmers and foresters to share knowledge and increase landscape resilience in the Mediterranean

Against the growing effects of climate change, our landscapes and environments are more and more vulnerable. For this reason, it is fundamental to improve landscape resilience and understand how it can contribute to the effective mitigation of the impacts of climate change.

Publications

Produced through the joint efforts of ResAlliance partners and practitioners, these publications represent core outcomes of the project and contribute to advancing landscape resilience across the Mediterranean.

Resilience thinking: a brief overview

Date: May 2024 – Version: 1.0
Enhancing landscape resilience addresses a ‘triple challenge’: sustaining a growing global human population, combating climate change, and reversing biodiversity loss. Landscape resilience refers to a landscape’s ability to persist, adapt, and maintain its essential structure, functions, and identity. Landscapes are complex social-ecological systems where humans and nature interact closely. This infobrief offers a concise overview of key concepts in resilience theory

Report on needs, barriers, gaps and solutions for landscape resilience implementation in the forest and agriculture sectors

Date: April 2024 – Version: D2.3
The ResAlliance project aims to provide foresters and farmers with the knowledge and tools necessary to implement innovative landscape resilience solutions. As described by the project, landscape resilience is defined as the ability of a landscape to sustain its range of natural and human-related functions and processes over time under changing conditions, despite multiple stressors and uncertainties. For this, the project gathers and assess knowledge, gaps, barriers, and good practices to achieve.

LandLab standardised manual, programme and templates

Date: September 2023 – Version: V2
This manual provides implementation guidelines for the LandLab (LL) activities throughout the ResAlliance project. It standardises the procedures for Resilience Ambassadors (RAs) in planning activities, collecting results, and adapting methods to their regional contexts. The flexible approach and accompanying templates support consistent information sharing and promote best practices within and beyond the project.

Factsheets

Browse a multilingual collection of 120 practices and case studies on landscape resilience in the Mediterranean relating to agriculture, forestry, and agroforestry. These are presented as two- or four-page factsheets and are classified by economic sector, type of solution, climate hazard and targeted implementing actors. Available in English, French, Spanish, Greek, Italian and Portuguese.

ResAlliance is a new project which aims at increasing knowledge flow, skills, and innovation in landscape resilience. With a specific focus on Mediterranean countries, the project will engage with farmers, foresters, and other stakeholders to support the application of innovative landscape resilience approaches to fight climate change and mitigate its effects.

How?
ResAlliance will create multi-stakeholder interactive initiatives at two levels: the LandNet and the LandLabs. 

Developed as part of the ResAlliance Project, this free Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) brings you the latest knowledge on how climate hazards (wildfires, droughts, desertification, floods and pests) are impacting the Mediterranean region.

It explores cutting-edge solutions for the agriculture and forestry sectors in four thematic areas: technology, finance, management and governance. With lessons delivered by experts from Europe’s leading institutions and real-world case studies from Spain, Italy, Portugal, Greece,Tunisia and Cyprus, this course is your opportunity to deepen your understanding and take action for a more resilient future.

Explore the forefront of sustainable practices with ResAlliance! If you’re a trailblazer addressing climate change in the Mediterranean, share your innovative story through captivating videos (up to 3 minutes) or compelling written narratives (up to 4 pages). 

Feature your work on LandNet and gain exposure throughout the ResAlliance project. The best contributions will be celebrated at the Closing Conference in November 2025, earning a Recognition Certificate and Gift and extensive promotion across our channels. Seize the opportunity to be a catalyst for change in agriculture and forestry—submit your groundbreaking practice now on our website!
