Objective / Goal

The project is expected to:

  • Support the transition towards improved agricultural practices enabling the sustainable management of land, soil, water and forest resources, and promoting the restoration of degraded land.
  • Increase carbon storage.
  • Support biodiversity.

Reliable information can enable the mainstreaming of agroecological innovations across drylands to increase food security, diversify agricultural livelihoods, reduce environmental degradation and increase soil carbon sequestration.
