ICRAF organised the initial stakeholder engagement workshop to co-design and develop an online Resource Hub to tackle land degradation in the semi-arid drylands of Makueni County, Kenya
A recent study by IFPRI supported by WLE came up with key insights in the role of women’s empowerment for soil health that can be directly incorporated into improved soil health management.
Using these new decision analysis approaches scientists can more realistically model scenarios for agricultural development and natural resource management in the context of climate change mitigation.
New soil strategies, water technology, policy initiatives and advances on restoring degraded landscapes are bringing cross-sectoral and cross-scale results in Ethiopia's agricultural sector.
The report provides guidance in estimating soil organic carbon (SOC) and help identify appropriate deployment of sustainable land management (SLM) technologies, with a special focus on maintaining land degradation neutrality (LDN).
A recently published report, which followed the UNCCD in New Delhi, emphasizes how Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) plays a role in preventing land degradation and desertification. Experts from ICRAF and WLE contributed to the discussion.
With Ethiopia and the world working towards improved Sustainable Land Management (SLM), global experts met in Addis Ababa and recommended a move towards stronger landscape solutions and better demonstration of the benefits of SLM for livelihoods.
More than 300 actors, including technicians and decision makers from six departments in western Honduras have benefited from the Honduras Water platform [Agua de Honduras], co-developed by CIAT’s Agroecosystems and Sustainable Landscapes (ASL) and Decision and Policy Analysis (DAPA) research areas, with WLE support.
A delegation from Makueni County, Kenya went on an exchange visit to Tigray, Ethiopia to see integrated landscape restoration approaches in action and learn some lessons for restoring watersheds in their own county.
More than 300 actors, including technicians and decision makers from six departments in western Honduras (Copán, Intibucá, Lempira, La Paz, Ocotepeque, and Santa Bárbara), have benefited from the Honduras Water platform [Agua de Honduras], co-developed by CIAT’s Agroecosystems and Sustainable Landscapes (ASL) and Decision and Policy Analysis (DAPA) research areas.
One-third of carbon emissions are absorbed by the earth’s biosphere. After forests, agricultural lands and wetlands have the most potential to do this. A panel of experts convened at COP24 last week to discuss ways in which this potential can be realized.
