The recent Food, Agriculture, Biodiversity, Land-Use, and Energy (FABLE) workshop, held from 31st July – 2nd August 2023, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, provided valuable insights into the potential of the FABLE-Ethiopia country team to assess the synergies and trade-offs of different national development targets and identify sustainable pathways . During this event, we explored the lessons learned and the potential of the FABLE calculator for creating a more sustainable future. At the start of the workshop, Professor Beyene Petros, the director of the Policy Studies Institute (PSI) stated that
“The objectives of FABLE are truly inspiring, as they encompass cross-cutting issues relevant to many research divisions within our institution. We address a range of critical issues, including food security, agricultural production, climate change, environmental degradation, land use change, deforestation, and other related concerns. However, many of these issues stem from policy gaps and undefined development objectives. For instance, the lack of a land use policy is driving unsustainable utilization of natural resources in the country. We hope to get insightful findings from the FABLE activities, to support us in addressing these issues.”
