Abstract

A brief about land degradation highlights its impact on biodiversity, food security, and livelihoods, with over 25% of agricultural land globally affected. Nutrition-sensitive and climate-resilient restoration of landscapes can enhance food production and ecosystem health. Integrated approaches that promote inclusive governance and strategic investments are crucial for sustainable restoration and resilience. Successful case studies from Tunisia, Colombia, West Africa, and India demonstrate effective practices that align with global climate goals.
