Delivering Results in Degraded Lands for People and Planet

December 16, 2015

This document provides the overview of the UNDP’s support to countries on sustainable land management and rehabilitation, which is designed to enhance livelihoods, secure food and water, build resilience and increase carbon storage and sequestration. It outlines how the UNDP, drawing on over 40 years of experience and expertise, assists countries to integrate land and related environmental concerns into national and sectoral development plans and strategies, secure resources, and implement programmes that advance inclusive, sustainable growth and development. This work supports governments to implement Multilateral Environmental Agreements and achieve their Sustainable Development Goals.
