\textbf{Abstract}
\begin{abstract}
\normalsize{
The very subsistence of the majority of rural households in the tropical areas of South East Asia are under an increasing threat either by nature or by economic reorientations.



Natural parameters are changing rapidly by climatic change impacts and  these challenges are aggreviated by global economical developments beyond the control of the rural people.



By applied research efforts between partner universities model projects could be developed which are presently deseminated by either non"=governmental channels or by governmental adoptation meachnisms. 



One of these model projects is the so"=called \glqq{} Rainforestation Farming \glqq{} technology which is combining food security  for the rural poor with environmental rehabilitation and biodiversity protection. This t3echnology is based on the hypothesis that " the nearer an agricultural system is to the local physical and local conditions of the environment the more sustaionable is this farming system".  This model has been developed to enable the rehabilitation of former rainforest areas by reforestation efforts using local fruit and timber tree species only and refocusing the  open sun"=demanding agriculture into a more shade"=tolerating agriculture. By these means protective measures for the threatened landscapes can be supported, the vulnerability of the rural subsistence is reduced , because the diversity of plants on the single farms is improved and an option for high quality products like  e.g. spices for the global market can be achieved.



The various aspects of challenges either from nature or from the globalisation of the economy are discussed showing various applications of the Rainforestation Farming Technology in different rural areas and ethnical groups in South East Asia.
