Intro -- Contents -- Foreword -- What is the nature and extent of desertification? -- Does desertification only involve the expansion of deserts? -- Does climate change exacerbate the desertification process? -- Which regions and populations are affected by desertification? -- Can we adapt to desertification? -- According to the UNCCD, why is it important to combat desertification and who should be involved? -- Learn more -- What are the causes and consequences of desertification? -- What are the processes, how do they interact and where do they occur? -- How do certain practices lead to desertification? -- How do economic and land institutions engender desertification? -- How does desertification affect soil ecosystem services? -- How does desertification affect biodiversity? -- How do desertification and water resources impact EACH other? -- How does desertification affect the atmosphere and climate? -- What are the economic effects of desertification? -- How does desertification make populations vulnerable and what are the repercussions? -- Learn more -- How and why should we combat desertification? -- What does it mean to "combat desertification"? -- Why do we need a holistic and systemic approach? -- Why do we need a territorial approach? -- Why do we need an interdisciplinary, multistakeholder approach? -- Why are agroecology-based solutions important? -- Why should we foster complementarity between local, regional and global scales? -- How does adapting to climate and environmental variations help combat desertification? -- What are the different techniques for rehabilitating land affected by desertification? -- What impacts and results have efforts to combat desertification had to date? -- Learn more -- What support mechanisms exist to combat desertification? -- What legal provisions exist in this area?.
