Land Degradation Initiative in Turkmenistan

Our programme facilitates advising government partner organisations on monitoring and reporting on international development initiatives (e.g. Bonn Challenge, Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) Initiative of the UNCCD and NDC).

For example, within the framework of the LDN Initiative, a policy brief was developed in Turkmenistan that contains measures to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality in the future.

The Economics of Land Degradation Initiative is a global initiative established in 2011 by the United Nations
Convention to Combat Desertification, the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, and the European Commission. It is supported by a broad network of partners across diverse fields of knowledge. ELD maintains a balanced perspective on parallel global concerns about the trajectory of anthropogenically induced trends and impact on land, which can be interlinked with endeavours to increase efficiency and outputs. Large-scale efforts that the ELD Initiative specifically endeavours to synergistically match its outputs with include the SDGs and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
