Conclusion
Benefits of socio-ecological production landscapes for biodiversity conservation and human well-being should be shared globally Challenges facing socio-ecological production landscapes are common issues around the world In overcoming these challenges, it is important that; -we understand the best ways of nurturing a stable supply of ecosystem services, -we make them more applicable to the society by integrating traditional knowledge with modern science, -and since these are not only technical problems, we need to involve wider collaboration among multi-stakeholders Based on this concept, the SATOYAMA Initiative can bring to realization the vision of societies in harmony with nature In order to advance the Initiative, experience sharing and active cooperation with relevant bodies are essential
