Tunisia has implemented programs to combat desertification and land degradation since 1998. The National Action Program addresses strategies, projects, and rural development programs. Institutions were created and over $1.5 billion invested from 1990-2011 in soil and water conservation and forestry programs. This improved forest cover and protected areas. Tunisia is aligning its National Action Program with the UNCCD's 10-year strategy and will continue reforestation, pasture improvement, and updating degradation maps from 2012-2016 as desertification affects 54% of the country.

7.4 Regional approaches to adaptation planning
The session will consider adaptation planning and implementation at the transboundary level, for such areas as water management, hydroenergy production and supply, trade and ecosystem management, as well as technical assessment and data issues that can be addressed jointly among neighbouring countries. It will feature best practices from the Great Green Wall of the Sahara and the Sahel as well as examples on addressing water issues in shared river basins.

4. Institutions and tools developed to
combat desertification and erosion
Since 1998 a National Action Program for combating
desertification ‘’ NAP-CD’’ has been developed. It
represents the framework of strategies, programs and
projects based on rural development
It relies on a rural development strategy that gives
greater emphasis to different aspects of natural
resource protection and to combat desertification
NAP-CD is a tool for coordinating and integrating
different strategies of natural resources implemented
by the government and to ensure the consideration
of socioeconomic and environment issues.
4
5. NAP-CD mainly occur at three levels:
Institutionally: the creation of the National
Committee to Combat Desertification and local
committee.
Operationally: the implementation of programs
and projects planning and conducting horizontal
actions to support the implementation of the plan
by initiating a system of monitoring and evaluation
of programs and projects to combat
desertification.
Financially : increasing mobilization of funds for
natural resources protection.

6. Programs to combat desertification
and erosion
* NAP adopted since 1998
* Since 1990Tunisia planned many strategies to
improve natural resources management:
Soil and water conservation strategy
1990-2000

and agricultural companies) is about 5% of the
total amount.
