In particular, we are talking about land potential. The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) International Resource Panel defines land potential as "the inherent potential of the land to sustainably generative ecosystem services" (Land Potential).
Learn more about land potential by exploring the Land Potential homepage as well as the project page for our featured program of the month, LandPKS. Some members of the LandPKS team will also be joining us as speakers for an ECOLinks webinar on October 21, 2014 from 12-1pm EST.
We've also shared some helpful resources on land management and land potential in conjunction with the webinar.
This month's issue includes information about our FRAMEweb photo contest and the 2014 Frontiers in Development Forum held on Sept 18-19. We also have highlighted resources recently posted on FRAMEweb.
