What the Satoyama Initiative is?
An initiative for:
� Promotion and support of socio-ecological production landscapes
� And thus maintaining and/or enhancing their contribution to human well-being and the three objectives of the CBD
But what are socio-ecological production
landscapes?
Why should we
promote them?
What are socio-ecological production
landscapes?
• Dynamic mosaics of habitats and land uses shaped by interactions between people and nature over many years (cultural heritage), including sea-scapes
• Compatible with the Ecosystem Approach and Guidelines on Sustainable Use
• Natural resources are used, re-used, recycled in a cyclical manner within the carrying capacity and resilience of ecosystems
What are socio-ecological production landscapes
(SEPL)?
Found in many regions of the world under various names
• Srair-Chamkar in Cambodia
• Muyong, uma and payoh in the Philippines
• Mauel in Korea
• Dehesa in Spain
In common
� wise and sustainable use of biological resources
• Dehesa in Spain
• Terroirs in France and other Mediterranean countries
• Chitemene in Malawi and Zambia
• Satoyama in Japan
More examples in CBD Technical Series No. 52
of biological resources
� In accordance with traditional and, in some cases, modern cultural practices
SEPLs Case
Mt. Kilimanjaro Region, Tanzania
Chagga communities
have practiced
complex agroforestry for centuries, providing key eco-
Garrity D. ICRAF
providing key eco-system services to protect critical watersheds and biodiversity on Mt. Kilimanjaro, which is recently under threat
of climate change.
SEPLs Case
Kagogo, Northern Rwanda
Soil erosion have
caused loss of fertile soil, leading to sediment and pollution in lakes and
Garrity D. ICRAF
pollution in lakes and rivers. Sustainable land management, esp. AF has reversed soil degradation and kept water clean, benefitting
communities.
Why should we promote SEPL?They are beneficial
• Provide humans with goods and services needed for their well-being (provisioning, regulating, cultural and supporting services) as well as maintain biodiversity
• Achieve optimal balance of food production, livelihood improvement and ecosystem conservation, thus achievement of MDGs and national development policies.national development policies.
• Provide sense of roots and identity
• Contribute to the mitigation of and adaptation to climate change
• Play role in achieving connectivity/corridor conservation
• Thus = tools for implementing CBD and post 2010 targets
Why should we promote SEPL?
They are threatened
� Abandoned because
� Rural depopulation in search of employment and better living conditions
� Ageing populations
� Insufficient provision for the livelihood of local communities
� Lost because of unplanned
Consequences
• Decline in ecosystem services with
serious consequences for the local and
broader communities and biodiversity
� Lost because of unplanned urbanization, industrialization encroaching on SEPL
� Overexploited or degraded due to increase in population/resource demand
We need
Urgent measures for socio-ecological
production landscapes:
�Support existing ones (maintain them)
Revitalize or rebuild degraded or abandoned �Revitalize or rebuild degraded or abandoned
ones
�Create new ones
• Building positive human-nature relationships by:
– Maintaining and developing socio-economic activities (including agriculture, forestry and fishing) in alignment with natural processes
Realizing Societies in Harmony with Nature
The Satoyama Initiative: Vision
with natural processes
– Ensuring that biological resources are managed and utilized in sustainable manner
• So that biodiversity can be maintained, and humans can enjoy a stable supply of various benefits of nature (ecosystem services) well into the future

Conceptual Structure of the Satoyama Initiative
12
Achieving the Vision (long term goal) by carrying out activities in accordance with the Three-fold Approach, which in concrete terms,
entails the Five Perspectives.
�Consolidating wisdom on a stable supply of diverse ecosystem services
�Integrating traditional ecological knowledge with modern science
Three-fold Approach of the Satoyama Initiative
modern science
�Exploring new forms of co-management system or “new” commons while respecting traditional communal land tenure

Perspective 1:
Resource use within
the carrying capacity
and resilience of the
environment
Winter grazing in winterage on Burren Hills, Ireland•Farm management based on traditional knowledge of natural carrying capacity (13 cows per winterage for 6 months) •Ensures removal of accumulated dead vegetation and prevents overgrazing of the uplands
Five perspectives of the Satoyama Initiative

What the Satoyama Initiative intends to
achieve
• Better understand importance of socio-ecological production landscapes for livelihoods and the three objectives of the CBD
• Raise awareness
� Provide support to existing socio-ecological production
landscapes landscapes
� Expand where appropriate
= part of implementation of the post-2010 Strategic Plan
� Collaborate with other initiatives dealing with socio-ecological
production landscapes (e.g. GIAHS, ICRAF, IUCN, Bioversity
