International audience. This study evaluates the contribution of agroecology to food security, resilience and mitigation of climate change in family farming, in the Mariño basin (Peru). We use the three principles of Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) as an analytical framework. We carry out surveys and measurements in the field, evaluating three principles, 10 criteria and 12 indicators. We found that the application ofagroecological practices improves food self-sufficiency and family income and reduces antagonisms or increases synergies between productivity and adaptation or mitigation. This suggests that agroecology can help achieve simultaneously the often-conflicting goals of Climate Smart Agriculture. . Este estudio evalúa la contribución de la agroecología a la seguridad alimentaria y contra el cambio climático en la agricultura familiar en la cuenca Mariño (Perú). Utilizamos como marco analítico los tres principios de la Agricultura Climáticamente Inteligente (CSA). Realizamos encuestas y mediciones en campo, evaluando tres principios, 10 criterios y 12 indicadores. Encontramos que la aplicación de prácticas agroecológicas mejora la autosuficiencia alimentaria e ingresos familiares; asimismo, reduce los antagonismos o incrementa sinergias entre productividad y adaptación o mitigación. Ello sugiere que la agroecología puede ayudar a alcanzar simultáneamente los objetivos (a menudo conflictivos) de la CSA.
