This exploratory research analyzes how women participate in Bolivian family farming, identifying their productive, reproductive, and decision-making roles. It examines the challenges they face in accessing resources, land, and technology, as well as the strategies they use to strengthen their autonomy. The study provides gender perspectives for designing inclusive agricultural policies.

The article reviews successful agroecological experiences in tropical livestock systems in Latin America and the Caribbean, highlighting cases in Colombia, Cuba, Haiti, Mexico, and Guadeloupe. It analyzes how integrated practices—such as adapted genetic management, nutrition with local resources, hormone-free reproductive management, and natural parasite control—improve sustainability, resilience, and animal productivity. It includes emblematic studies such as Finca Tosoly (Colombia) and the “Lèt Agogo” program (Haiti), which combine food production, energy, and ecosystem services. The research proposes a framework for transitioning to resilient, multifunctional, low-emission livestock systems based on biodiversity and the circular economy.

The study reveals that much of the research on the Coffee Cultural Landscape is limited and fragmented, which hinders its effective management as cultural heritage and aggravates the tensions between conservation, tourism and rural reality (Cruz-Rincón, D. F., 2024).
