Holistic Comprehensive Management: Decision-Making for Land and Life

🌱 Empowering Decision-Making for Better Outcomes

What is Holistic Comprehensive Management?

Holistic Comprehensive Management, developed by Allan Savory and promoted globally by the Savory Institute, is a decision-making framework that balances ecological, economic, and social considerations. It equips land stewards, producers, and communities with practical tools to enhance their land and livelihoods sustainably.

  • βš–οΈ Holistic Financial Planning - Align financial decisions with ecological and social values.

  • πŸ“Š Holistic Land Planning and Monitoring - Design and monitor land management actions for continual improvement.
