dc.descriptionThis is Chapter 8, "Governance and policy responses to soil change," of the main report <a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-i5126e.pdf"><i>Status of the World’s Soil Resources. </i></a><p>This chapter provides an overview of policy and governance responses to soil change. While most attention is given to issues at the global, regional and national levels, it is emphasized that effective responses nearly always have a basis in local action by individual land managers. Indeed, understanding the interc onnectedness and the consequences of actions at each level is central to effective governance and policy.</p> <p>The full report has been divided into sections and individual chapters for ease of downloading:</p> <ul><li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc589e.pdf">Introductory information</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc590e.pdf">Chapter 1: Introduction</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc591e.pdf">Chapter 2: The role of soils in ecosystem processes </a></li> <li><a hre f="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc592e.pdf">Chapter 3: Global Soil Resources</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc593e.pdf">Chapter 4: Soils and Humans</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc594e.pdf">Chapter 5: Drivers of global soil change</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc595e.pdf">Chapter 6: Global soil status, processes and trends</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc596e.pdf">Chapter 7: Soil change: impacts and responses</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.f ao.org/3/a-bc597e.pdf">Chapter 8: Governance and policy responses to soil change</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc598e.pdf">Chapter 9: Regional Assessment of Soil Changes in Africa South of the Sahara</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc599e.pdf">Chapter 10: Regional Assessment of Soil Change in Asia</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc600e.pdf">Chapter 11: Regional Assessment of Soil Changes in Europe and Eurasia</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-b c601e.pdf">Chapter 12: Regional Assessment of Soil Changes in Latin America and the Caribbean</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc602e.pdf">Chapter 13: Regional Assessment of Soil Changes in the Near East and North Africa</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc603e.pdf">Chapter 14: Regional Assessment of Soil Changes in North America</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc604e.pdf">Chapter 15: Regional Assessment of Soil Change in the Southwest Pacific</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc605e.pdf">Chapter 16: Regional Assessment of Soil Change in Antarctica</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc606e.pdf">Annex: Soil groups, characteristics, distribution and ecosystem services</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc607e.pdf">Glossary of Technical Terms</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-bc608e.pdf">Authors and affiliations</a></li></ul> <p> Also available: <a href="http://www.fao.org/3/a-i5126e.pdf"><i>Technical Summary of the Status of the World’s Soil Resources.</i></a></p>
