[Author] [Author]. This book was released on 2024-08-12 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The African Union (AU) declared 2022 as the "Year of Nutrition" to address persistent food insecurity and malnutrition in Africa. Despite progress, challenges remain due to policy failures, conflict, climate issues, and global economic imbalances. In 2021, 322 million Africans faced severe food insecurity, with sub-Saharan Africa being the most affected. To tackle these issues, the AU and regional economic communities (RECs) prioritize food security and agriculture. Key frameworks like Agenda 2063 aim for a continent with stable, nutritious food sources. The AU and RECs have developed various instruments to support their Member States in these efforts. FAO commissioned CEFROHT to study the governance of the AU and RECs in sub-Saharan Africa, focusing on food and agriculture policies, implementation challenges, and collaboration opportunities. CEFROHT analyzed the activities of key organizations, including EAC, IGAD, SADC, CEMAC, CEN–SAD, CILSS, ECOWAS, ECCAS, and COMESA. The report highlights their governance structures, normative frameworks, and potential areas for collaboration with FAO.

Download or read book Combating Desertification in Asia, Africa and the Middle East written by G. Ali Heshmati and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the ‘how’ of desertification control as opposed to an analysis of the ‘why’ and fills a gap in the desertification-related literature in that it shows what to do in situations ranging from fixing mobile sands to arresting accelerated soil erosion in sloping lands. There are numerous illustrations to show the successful techniques. This compilation demonstrates that desertification and land degradation can be controlled and reversed with existing techniques in such widely varying environments as the Sahel of Africa to Sri Lanka and the Philippines in SE Asia, from mountains in Lesotho to low lands on desert margins in Mongolia. Proven approaches include technical interventions, changes in governance and to the legislative framework and policy reform. The book fills a gap in the desertification-related literature in that it shows what to do in situations ranging from fixing mobile sands to arresting accelerated soil erosion in sloping lands.

Download or read book Economics of Land Degradation and Improvement – A Global Assessment for Sustainable Development written by Ephraim Nkonya and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-11 with total page 695 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with land degradation, which is occurring in almost all terrestrial biomes and agro-ecologies, in both low and high income countries and is stretching to about 30% of the total global land area. About three billion people reside in these degraded lands. However, the impact of land degradation is especially severe on livelihoods of the poor who heavily depend on natural resources. The annual global cost of land degradation due to land use and cover change (LUCC) and lower cropland and rangeland productivity is estimated to be about 300 billion USD. Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) accounts for the largest share (22%) of the total global cost of land degradation. Only about 38% of the cost of land degradation due to LUCC - which accounts for 78% of the US$300 billion loss – is borne by land users and the remaining share (62%) is borne by consumers of ecosystem services off the farm. The results in this volume indicate that reversing land degradation trends makes both economic sense, and has multiple social and environmental benefits. On average, one US dollar investment into restoration of degraded land returns five US dollars. The findings of the country case studies call for increased investments into the rehabilitation and restoration of degraded lands, including through such institutional and policy measures as strengthening community participation for sustainable land management, enhancing government effectiveness and rule of law, improving access to markets and rural services, and securing land tenure. The assessment in this volume has been conducted at a time when there is an elevated interest in private land investments and when global efforts to achieve sustainable development objectives have intensified. In this regard, the results of this volume can contribute significantly to the ongoing policy debate and efforts to design strategies for achieving sustainable development goals and related efforts to address land degradation and halt biodiversity loss.
