CGIAR Multifunctional Landscapes (MFL) Science Program

The CGIAR Multifunctional Landscapes (MFL) Science Program is part of the CGIAR 2025–2030 Research and Innovation Portfolio. It advances integrated management of food, land, water, and ecosystems across scales. While implementation takes place at plot and farm level, where farmers make daily production decisions, these actions are designed to connect to landscape-level processes, where environmental systems, governance, markets, and social dynamics interact. By linking farm-level practice with landscape transformation, MFL supports coherent, system-wide change.
