Dr. Anneke Trux, GIZ, on the threat of soil erosion and desertification
About UNCCD:
The UNCCD COP 14 ended on 13 September 2019, after ten days of meetings, 11 high-level, 30 committee and over 170 stakeholder meetings, 44 exhibitions and 126 side events. The Conference adopted the Delhi Declaration in which parties expressed commitment for a range of issues, including gender and health, ecosystem restoration, taking action on climate change, private sector engagement, Peace Forest Initiative and recovery of five million hectares of degraded land in India.
UNCCD COP14 agreed on 36 decisions to ramp up and elaborate further action on the ground to ensure that the Convention’s goals for 2018-2030 are achieved. At the closing of COP14, UNCCD Executive Secretary Mr. Ibrahim Thiaw shared these takeaway messages:
1. Land restoration is the cheapest solution to climate change and biodiversity loss
2. Land restoration makes business sense if regulations and incentives to reward investment are in place
3. Drought preparedness and response are critical in the face of climate change
4. To put people first is to ensure gender balance, engage youth, secure land rights
