Desertification processes are increasing, driving losses in agricultural productivity and incomes in drylands. The report examines the interconnectedness of land policies and their implications for climate change. For instance, if irrigation were to decrease in India, it would result in lower rainfall in Eastern Africa. A range of policies and practices has been identified which can help people adapt to climate change, mitigate against further climate change, combat land degradation and desertifi¬cation, and improve food security.application/pdfenLAND USEPROPERTY RIGHTSOWNERSHIPCLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATIONIPCCDESERTIFICATIONFOREST CONSERVATIONBIODIVERSITYFOOD SYSTEMSFOOD SECURITYECOSYSTEM APPROACHESRIGHT TO NATURAL RESOURCES CONTROLWOMEN’S ROLECLIMATE CHANGE RISK MANAGEMENTSOUTH OF SAHARAGLOBALTraining Material
