This article analyzes international experiences in the transition to agroecology, resulting from public policies that promote agroecological transition, considering social, ecological, economic, political, and cultural factors. The study focuses on how these transitions have developed in different countries, each with its geographical, political, and economic particularities, and how public policy initiatives often arise from cooperation between people to promote sustainable production and preserve natural resources for future generations. The research methodology is exploratory/descriptive and qualitative. The exploratory nature is due to the search for relatively new and little-known experiences of public policies for agroecological transition. The descriptive phase focuses on the collection and analysis of the characteristics of agroecological transitions in each country that has recorded the experience. The deductive method was used to identify key elements implemented in the co-creation and establishment of actions, laws, and public policies for agroecological transition. International experiences of laws and public policies for agroecological transition have contributed to sustainable development in different countries, providing insights into how agroecology can be promoted through legislation and government action, and how these policies can influence environmental sustainability, food and nutrition security, and public health. Key words: Agroecology; agroecological transition; public policies; sustainability; economics.This article analyzes international experiences in the transition to agroecology, resulting from public policies that promote agroecological transition, considering social, ecological, economic, political, and cultural factors.
