| Description: |
How can agroecological performance be assessed in ways that are both locally meaningful and globally credible? The Local Indicator Selection Process (LISP) offers a practical, participatory answer. Developed and tested across diverse contexts, this guide supports teams in co-designing indicators that reflect local priorities while remaining aligned with broader agroecological assessment frameworks. Grounded in the Holistic Localized Performance Assessment (HOLPA) Framework, LISP provides step-by-step guidance for facilitators and project managers to convene stakeholders, articulate shared visions, and translate them into robust, measurable indicators across agricultural, environmental, social, and economic dimensions. The process balances scientific rigor with inclusivity, ensuring indicators are meaningful, feasible, and responsive to real-world change. Designed for use within Agroecology Living Landscapes (ALLs) but adaptable far beyond them, this publication is a hands-on resource for anyone seeking to generate credible evidence of agroecological transitions, whether for community monitoring, project evaluation, or investment decision-making. LISP puts local knowledge at the center of performance assessment, where it belongs. |
