Background
The FAO GIAHS programme designates traditional agricultural systems that safeguard the livelihoods of small-scale family farmers who practise sustainable agriculture based on local and indigenous knowledge. Since its inception in 2002, GIAHS designations have been expanding worldwide, and there is a growing interest and need to holistically understand the impacts of GIAHS conservation through systematic monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of these activities.
