This document discusses land degradation in Africa and strategies to address it. It provides background on causes and impacts of land degradation. It then summarizes recent policy responses and projects to promote land restoration and sustainable land management. Going forward, it calls for a more integrated approach aligned with Agenda 2063 and the SDGs. This includes support for nexus projects and a strengthened TerrAfrica partnership to provide technical support while respecting priorities of member states. The conclusion emphasizes the severity of land degradation challenges and the need for enhanced capacity and assistance to strengthen the African Union Commission's leadership role.

A Principal Objective: Every integrated program of interventions will be aimed at achieving a principal objective, whose nature will depend upon the “entry point” and whose goal, in line with the MDGs and the WSSD Plan of Implementation, will be the fostering of environmentally sustainable development. In doing so, global benefits will be accrued in a cluster of focal areas, or even in all of them. A tentative/preliminary Operational Program indication will correspond to the Principal Objective.

Leading restoration and climate resilience experts share how entrepreneurs in Africa are leading the restoration movement, creating jobs, and making their communities more resilient to climate change.
Since July 2006, UNDP/GEF-SGP has supported 75 projects in Ethiopia, out of which, 13 of them were being implemented in Dire Dawa Administration. Taking the already phased out four community projects as a reference, this study examines the socioeconomic impacts of the program in the Administration. A cross sectional survey of 160 households (80 from the project beneficiaries and 80 from non-beneficiaries) was undertaken to examine and evaluate the impacts of the program on households’ livelihood. Descriptive statistics coupled with an econometric model was used to analyze the data collected from different sources. The descriptive analysis of this study indicates that the societies are becoming better off in their livelihood due to the existence of the project despite the fact that it is associated with many challenges. Applying a propensity score matching technique, the study has figured out that the level of monthly income, asset and monthly consumption expenditure of the program beneficiaries are higher than that of non-beneficiaries. Generally, the major findings of the study showed the average effect of the program to be positive and statistically significant; suggesting that the program has achieved its stated objectives of improving the socio economic conditions of the local community and the environment. It is also suggested that the project would have the capacity to improve the livelihood of the beneficiaries further if corrective measures are taken to tackle the challenges faced by the project.
This webinar takes a closer look at the global nutrient challenge and the work of the Global Partnership on Nutrient Management (GPNM) to promote better science and policy solutions to overcome this challenge.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

The emerging global and continental
political vision and agenda for
addressing DLDD
2. OUTLINE
1. Background on Land Degradation
2. Extreme Climatic conditions and Shattering impact of
extreme in the 60s, 70s, 80s & Responses
3. Background on Land Degradation
Land degradation is any process in which leads to
change in the condition of the land which reduces its
productive potential. This includes the loss of topsoil,
the loss of vegetation and increasing soil salinity. ...
Factors that have contributed to land degradation
include: a combination of human-induced processes
acting upon the land & natural causes to a lesser
extend.
Picture:JLL:AfricaUnionHub@
2016
5. Impacts of Land Degradation
Results of Land Degradation
unfertile soil, and limited retention of
water and nutrients.
the energy, nutrient and water cycles are
damaged or dysfunctional
productivity is low.
the soil surface may be unstable due to
soil erosion which pre runs plant
establishment
Can lead to desertification
These are very real and at times severe
issues.
The effects of soil erosion go beyond the
Impacts and Degradation
• Social
• Environmental
• Economic
6. Land restoration
‘
Land restoration:
Land restoration is the process of ecological
restoration of a site to a natural landscape and
habitat, safe for humans, wildlife, and plant
communities
Aspects successful restoration by
• good understanding of the site conditions and the
barriers that impede the system's self recovery.
• Clear goals and objectives that are agreed upon
among the different stakeholders help us to choose
the right interventions that speed up and direct the
restoration towards our goals
• Adaptive management that allows timely
adjustments of plans and interventions, if things do
not go according to plan, is also an essential
component of successful restoration projects.

• Nexus Projects – WEF
• Recognition of LDN as tool for implementation
of LD on the continent & make use of the
opportunities of the LDN Fund
• Undertake Landscape approaches : ( Sustainable
Land Management )
• Focus to also be shifted on Watersheds
management
• Multi sectorial and multi ministerial approach in
the Member states
20. Continental political orientation on DLDD
2. Project / Programme implementation Approach
Large scale sustainable Land Management and restoration
Promote Strong Collaboration between all projects and initiatives
Forge stronger links with Paris Agreement, UNCCD & CBD
Projects and programmes in LD should be continental wide and focus
on investments and solving real challenges in MS
Projects / initiatives should support the enhancement of
negotiation capacity in global negotiations and enhance the
attainment African Common position esp. in UNCCD negotiations
21. 3. Continental Policy level
Implementation of the LD should clear show alignment with AU
AGENDA 2063 , SDGs
Projects and initiatives aimed at supporting AU resolutions be
undertaken under the supervision of the AU organs, Agency and the
AUC responsible for coordination and reporting to the Summit and
& The Specialised Technical Committee
Bilaterals with member states on the implementation of projects
in support of AU resolution should be undertaken under the
Supervision of AU Agency and AUC
Seek to Work closely with the RECs and their organs
22. . Continental Policy level
Projects and programmes implemented in support
of AU resolution should support AU Agencies and
AUC in it their Coordination, supervision
Knowledgement and reporting duties , and
especially to continue to influencing continental
and Global Policies
On financial mechanism, the AU Strongly believes,
after listening to its MS that there is a need for it
to be more inclusive
“Enhancing agricultural transformation and environmental sustainability for food security and employment for
Africa’s Youth”
23. Advocacy
Take advantage of Recognised Events to advocate for
DLDD
• Africa Union Days
• The Africa Environment and Wangari
Maathai Day
• The African Dry land Week
• The Regional Steering Committee of the
GGWSSI
24. The Future of TERRAFRICA
The TERRAFRICA Partnership Platform has been
crucial in promotion and advocacy that have
brought Land issues in the limelight generally
The Partnership has been instrumental the
mainstreaming of SLM & restoration in domestic
policies in the Member states
The AUC strongly believes that the work of
TerrAfrica remains very relevant considering the
emerging policy and thematic issues
“Enhancing agricultural transformation and environmental sustainability for food security and employment for
Africa’s Youth”
25. Future of TA
To enable the platform to be more efficient and able to
contribute in seeking sustainable solution to the current
increasing and multi faceted challenge related to land and soils ,
AUC proposes
A robust TA with stronger mandate & Autonomy to undertake its
objectives
The TA platform to work according the needs of Ms, priorities of the
MS and in closer collaboration with the AUCs GGWI unit
The implementation of the programme be undertaken within the
strategic documents and approaches adopted my the MS through
the AUC
26. The TA continue to provide technical support to the MS while
supporting the AUC’s GGWI Unit to undertake its coordination
and reporting rule as per the mandate of the AU
The TA should be robust and flexible enough to be able to adapt
and able to absorp emerging issues
At the level thematic areas ,
Land restoration, and SLM remains the focus but the platform
should be able to support nexus projects
“Enhancing agricultural transformation and environmental sustainability for food security and employment for
Africa’s Youth”
27. Conclusion
DLDD and impacts will continue to be more
severe in the foreseeable and may be worse
The AU C recognizes the challenges it has faced in
playing the leadership role as the main political
body of the continent.
The Commission commits to step up its acts and
endeavor to play its role as per its mandate.
there is an urgent need for assistance and support
to enhance the capacity for the Commission to
effective play its role
“Enhancing agricultural transformation and environmental sustainability for food security and employment for
Africa’s Youth”
28. Conclusion
The AUC will work with its MS to ensure a more streamlined and
multi sectorial approach Restoration and SLM sector
The role of the GGWI unit in maintaining the Agenda of restoration
and SLM cannot be emphasized , so far the unit remains unique in its
role and its influence and mandate is recognized , supported and
playing increasing important role in supporting comprehensive
development of development strategies especially in Peace and
Security, Climatne change and
“Enhancing agricultural transformation and environmental sustainability for food security and employment for
Africa’s Youth”
29. Conclusion
The AUC is not in competition with any other institution,
the role and mandate of the Commission is clear, and as
far as DLDD is concern the value proposition is to keep up
with its support to MS, RECs & Partners and to ensure that
the Position and interest of the continent are highlighted
and supported at the highest level
Keep the Issues of DLDD at the highest Political level
The DLDD sector is now determinant in global politics and
Finance, meaning the sector is getting very interesting in
a positive way , and we hope to work closely for the next
