Enabling Sustainability Transitions brings together three complementary resources that demonstrate how agroecology can support the transformation of agrifood systems from local practice to global policy relevance. The most recent contribution, the IPBES Nexus Assessment (2024/2026), applies the 10 Elements of Agroecology framework and its associated Visual Narratives methodology within a global intergovernmental science-policy assessment, showing how agroecological approaches can identify synergies, manage trade-offs, and support integrated responses across biodiversity, water, food, health, and climate change.

Building on this global application, Harnessing the Potential of the 10 Elements of Agroecology (FAO, 2023) translates agroecological principles into practice, illustrating how policies, institutions, and investments can support context-specific transition pathways through approaches such as agroforestry, inclusive governance, and sustainable healthy diets. These advances are grounded in the FAO 10 Elements of Agroecology (2020), a holistic framework approved by all 197 FAO members, that views food systems as interconnected socio-ecological systems, where diversity, co-creation of knowledge, and synergies foster resilience, efficiency, and recycling, supported by enabling conditions such as responsible governance, cultural values, and circular and solidarity economies. Together, these resources outline a pathway for sustainability transitions in agrifood systems: understanding complexity, implementing solutions, and scaling impact.
