| dc.description | Forests and trees in Africa are a source of resilience for communities in the face of climate change Farmers, pastoralists and other forest dependent people often meet their basic needs for income, food and nutrition, medicines, shelter, cooking, heating, building and fencing materials, as well as fodder for livestock, by using the surrounding forests Forests are essential for the provision of ecosystem services, and are key to sustaining agriculture, food security, nutrition and livelihoods Extensive areas of Africa’s forests are degraded and at a high risk of further degradation Vast tracts also face associated environmental and socio economic challenges, including desertification, climate change, conflict, water and food insecurity, migration, unemployment and poverty Each year almost 3 million ha of forests are lost in Africa, 65 percent of Africa’s land is affected by degradation, and 3 percent of gross domestic product is lost annually through the depletion of soil nutrients on agricultural land. | |
