Insights from the Field
SLAT: A Journey Rooted in Landscape and Legacy
The SLAT (Sustainability Landscape Assessment Tool) was born from over 15 years of hands-on experience in tropical landscape sustainability, particularly within the coffee value chain. Our founder’s journey began with the design of the sustainability management plan for Colombia’s Coffee Cultural Landscape—later recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This formative work laid the foundation for his doctoral research at the University of Lausanne, where he explored sustainability across coffee-producing regions.
