Mapa da Agroecologia

Agroecology Map is a digital platform for citizen science and open data that enables people to map and share agroecological experiences and practices. Our aim is to connect individuals and strengthen collaboration networks that facilitate the exchange of knowledge in agroecology. By bringing together farmers, researchers, and practitioners, we create a vibrant community dedicated to sustainable agricultural practices.

As free software, Agroecology Map's source code and data are openly available for anyone to use and share. This commitment to open-source principles ensures that knowledge remains accessible to all, fostering innovation and collaborative development. We believe that by sharing resources and experiences freely, we can accelerate the adoption of agroecological practices worldwide. Through this approach, we're building a democratic and transparent platform that serves the global agroecology movement.

The platform is maintained by volunteers who are passionate about agroecology and social technologies. Our community includes farmers, developers, researchers, and activists working together to improve and expand the platform's capabilities. We believe agroecology is the path forward, and through collaboration, we can achieve more together. By documenting and sharing successful practices, we're creating a valuable resource for anyone interested in sustainable agriculture and food sovereignty.

Our primary goal is to democratize access to agroecological knowledge and practices through an interactive digital platform. We aim to break down barriers between different actors in the food system by creating a space where farmers, researchers, activists, and practitioners can document and share their experiences. By mapping these initiatives, we make visible the growing movement of sustainable agriculture and help connect people working towards similar objectives in different regions. This visualization of agroecological practices helps demonstrate the viability and scalability of sustainable farming methods while fostering knowledge exchange across communities.

Furthermore, we strive to build a resilient network that supports the transition towards more sustainable food systems. Through our open-source approach, we seek to empower communities to adapt and improve the platform according to their local needs and contexts. Our goal extends beyond simply collecting data – we aim to facilitate meaningful collaborations that can strengthen local food systems, preserve traditional farming knowledge, and promote innovative solutions to agricultural challenges. By connecting different voices and experiences in agroecology, we work to create a collaborative ecosystem where successful practices can be shared, adapted, and implemented across diverse geographical and cultural contexts.
