 Here we are and we want to present with you and to get with Chris a little bit on where we are with the CGR initiative on agriculture that is has been kind of created in the context of the TPP as well and now being also implemented as part of the TPP. So next one. So this is just a reminder of what this initiative is about. So this initiative is working in seven countries and in these seven countries we are working on living landscapes and these living landscapes are really sort of innovations halves where we want to facilitate the co-creation of innovations not only at farming practices not related only with that but also institutional innovations that can help to support a different type of agricultural transitions. So for that we established this living landscapes in these seven countries and then we deploy different work packages with our partners. Two of the work packages are the ones on the top are devoted to work on those institutional innovations mainly in this phase of the initiative we are looking at business models and how the business models can incorporate agricultural principles and at the same time support agricultural transitions and the other one is about the policy and institutional arrangement that are conducive to agricultural transitions so we are working there with different type of food system actors to see how we can align better current policies or also can improve current institutional arrangements that can support agricultural transitions. In the bottom part you have other two work packages that are more related to the provision of scientific evidence on what work and what doesn't work in agriculture basically in relation to the innovations that are going to be co-created in the living landscapes but also since we are working and as you will see later in setups where that transition has already started that work package is going also to kind of learn from what is happening and see and build evidence on what is working what is not working from different perspective and in relation to different agricultural principles. And then we have another work package that is the one in the very bottom part that is understanding what triggers and what drive behavior change in those living landscapes and type of food system actors and then with these to try to set up strategies that can be more effective when supporting agricultural transitions in these areas. And here this is just some adjustment to this approach of glistening around the agricultural transformation and basically here we want to kind of note that when we have arrived to these different settings we have kind of a knowledge that in many cases we are starting from a level zero I mean this level zero means areas where there is not even any use of inputs so it's not about changing the inputs we use in farming or transforming the farming but it's actually how we can improve the activity there but with in a sustainable way. So this that's why we have made this adjustment to the initial the proposal of glistening to recognize that it is level zero. And then as you have noted before we are working beyond the farm level so we are talking about policy change we are talking about business models. So we really want to go beyond only the redesign or the adjustment of how food is produced but also how farmers are connected to markets and are connected to the policy framework in the countries where we work. So kind of going beyond a level two in practical terms. Next one so on this one then you can see these differences. So here we just want to show I mean how different are the different settings where we are working across these seven countries that also kind of show the different of ecological transitions we're talking about. So for example in working at FASU it's about optimizing the interaction between livestock and agriculture introducing the views in India in Andhra Pradesh it's about reducing the reliance on external inputs and improving water and soil management. And in Kenya it's about kind of improving pest management and soil and water management through better through co-innovations and also kind of interacting better with policies that can support that. And in Laos there were technicians in power also the conditions are very different among them so in Laos it is about improving water and land management through integrated low-input agriculture and aquatic food production in Peru it's about improving our organic cocoa systems that are already happening there but there is still some gill gaps there and also there are some opportunities to improve the environmental sustainability of those systems and also the socioeconomic dimensions. Indonesia is about boosting the resilience of crop livestock systems and also kind of mixing these with other sources of livelihoods. And in Simba we are also co-developing these innovations also with a focus on cereals, legumes, life-to-come vegetables. So here what I wanted to highlight is that the starting point in each of those living landscapes is very different. Also we have been engaging with the actors to define okay what is the type of afroecological transitions that you want to pursue you are interested in pursuing and then based on that understanding then we are also bringing very different type of partners into that co-creation process in each of the countries. Next one. So in a nutshell this is where we are after almost a year of having started this initiative. So basically as I said in each of the country we are engaging with different type of actors to understand what is the vision, the common vision regarding the desire of ecological transitions. We want to understand where we can improve things in the farms but also in relation to their business models with others and also to the policy environment. So here the numbers when you see their people engage or food system actors engage are those that have been effectively participating in that process of defining those transitions. And then we have now created this or established these living landscapes in the seven countries and as I noted already that reflect a variety for context with different types of partners. Also all the living landscapes already have a context assessment where we have kind of noted okay where we are in terms of ecological principles and that's kind of our starting point. Then we have also developed a new assessment framework that we want to apply in these settings to understand what work and what doesn't work. And what is very key on this one is that we are proposing to use indicators that are sensitive and context relevant for the food system actors in each of these landscapes. Also we have already identified the value change where we see opportunities to incorporate ecological principles and we started already in Peru kind of nailing that down to specific business models and see in collaboration with the business partners. I mean the farmers for example and the buyer of the product how they can incorporate ecological principles in the business models. And here I'm talking about for example inclusion. I'm talking about furnace and environmental stewardship. Also we have advanced already with that policy tracking tool that is going to help us to see okay where are those policies that can be influential in an ecological transitions and how we can track it systematically across the landscapes. And also we have analyzed already some previous experiences in the landscapes from the behavior change perspective to understand what really triggers different type of behaviors and decision in these living landscapes and from there learn and see how we can strategize better in our landscapes to trigger the desired behavior change. And just before I pass the floor to Chris we are already also engaged in some specific opportunities that we have identified in these living landscapes to kind of trigger some impact outcomes. I mean changes in behavior, changes in investments towards these ecological transitions. So for example we are now linked to the process for developing the national ecology strategy in Kenya. We are also now linked to the process in the region in Peru where we are working at that wants to establish an ecological corridor of 100,000 hectares. We are also working and linked to a process in Peru for the promotion of biotrade and the government is very interested to put a focus on agriculture in this strategic plan for biotrade. And also with a private sector in Peru we have agreed on exploring how carbon markets can be an alternative or a supplementary financial mechanisms to support ecological transitions in cocoa farmers that are producing organic cocoa already. So with this I want to pass the floor to Chris to listen a little bit of what is coming next in this year and what will be our priorities. Over to Chris. Thanks Marcel and greetings everyone. So we progress has been good this last year and looking forward to 2023 just to give you a few extra insights into what we're planning. So there have been a flood of reports that have come out already. So from work package one, the essence of the engagement with the stakeholders in the seven different living landscapes and then developing a stakeholder mapping plan and how to work with stakeholders. They're basically on the ground working with stakeholders to co-create possible innovations for agricultural ecology which will probably be built on top of a visioning exercise where again working with stakeholders to come up with a vision for agriculture in the region bearing in mind that we're talking about holistic agriculture, the whole food system. So it's not just the land practices but also the whole food chain policy etc. So that work is starting at pace and there's a great deal that will have to be done this year. In support of that the second work package is developing a new assessment tool and some people might roll the eyes of this but you know there are many assessment tools on the shelf already and the emphasis of this one is really we've given it the acronym of Holper with the emphasis being on that it's a holistic performance assessment tool that the tool encompasses all of the environmental, the social, economic and agricultural factors all of them together and the idea is that we will synchronize with the visioning factors which is taking place in the living landscapes and based on the visioning we will introduce specific local indicators which will be matched against general indicators that will be applied in every living landscape. So the tool will be a mixture of both general indicators as well as context specific indicators and that tool is in the process of finalization and then will be piloted and then rolled out later in this year. So Marcel has already mentioned the progress that's been made in Peru and Kenya and these are two reports that have been produced and really this is looking at business models and how business models can actually affect the way that agroecology can develop in a living landscape and going forwards there's also a keen eye on the policies and how policies can be changed and adapted to encourage investment and development of agroecology in each living landscape and then the final thing is and this report alludes to it as well is identifying the drivers of behavior change per type of actor and seeing what can be done to work with behavior issues around the innovation towards agroecology. So there's a lot of information there are a lot of reports which have already been produced you probably can't click on your link right there but you can go into the website and there's a lot to be seen and it's still early days in the project and this year we have to achieve a great deal but so far so good thank you very much
