Demand for agricultural commodities from EU agrofood systems are driving land use change in biodiversity-rich countries in the Global South, leading to major biodiversity losses. Tackling the EU’s global biodiversity footprint is a top EU policy priority. The science demonstrates the need for transformative change in economic, social, and financial models for safe and just transitions, but there is limited knowledge on how to achieve transformative change in practice, which requires navigation of biodiversity, climate and equity trade offs and synergies. TC4BE will support transdisciplinary research on different dimensions and scales of telecoupled agrofood systems, engaging diverse stakeholders, including EU and producer-country policy-makers and Indigenous Peoples and local communities. Scenarios and modelling of EU agrofood systems transformations, will be complemented by analysis of EU governance, trade, legal, consumer, collective action and sustainable finance levers and social innovations. In three producer countries (Cameroon, Colombia, and Kenya), TC4BE will generate methods for and assess land use change drivers, at-risk biodiversity hotspots, and the effectiveness of Sustainable Landscapes Initiatives. In six landscapes TC4BE will explore relationships to nature, perceptions of socio-ecological histories and futures, rigorously evaluate SLIs, and conduct regenerative enterprise case studies using a structured landscape learning process. Transformative change pathways will be co-generated by diverse stakeholders recognizing plural values and informed by new evidence, decision-making tools and training modules. The overall process will strengthen the capacity of participating stakeholders (care-knowledge-agency) to influence biodiversity and equity outcomes. A global dialogue, facilitated by the Global Landscapes Forum will link the transdisciplinary processes between the scales, supported by additional dissemination and communication activities.

欧盟农业食品系统对农产品的需求正在推动全球南部生物多样性丰富的国家的土地使用变化，导致生物多样性的重大损失。应对欧盟的全球生物多样性足迹是欧盟政策的重中之重。科学表明，需要对经济、社会和金融模式进行变革性变化，以实现安全和公正的过渡，但关于如何在实践中实现变革性变化的知识有限，这需要导航生物多样性、气候和股权权衡和协同效应。TC4BE将支持对不同维度和规模的远程农业食品系统进行跨学科研究，让不同的利益攸关方参与进来，包括欧盟和生产国政策制定者以及土著人民和当地社区。欧盟农业食品系统转型的情景和模型，将辅之以对欧盟治理、贸易、法律、消费者、集体行动和可持续金融杠杆和社会创新的分析。在三个生产国(喀麦隆、哥伦比亚和肯尼亚)，TC4BE将制定和评估土地利用变化驱动因素、面临风险的生物多样性热点以及可持续景观倡议的有效性的方法。在六个景观中，TC4BE将探索与自然的关系，对社会生态历史和未来的看法，严格评估SLI，并使用结构化的景观学习过程进行再生企业案例研究。变革性的变革道路将由认识到多元价值观的不同利益攸关方共同产生，并由新的证据、决策工具和培训模块提供信息。整个进程将加强参与的利益攸关方(关怀-知识-机构)影响生物多样性和公平结果的能力。在全球景观论坛的推动下，全球对话将在更多的传播和传播活动的支持下，将各比例尺之间的跨学科进程联系起来。
