Resumen
Descripción
Botswana faces increasing pressure from land degradation, driven by recurrent droughts, overgrazing, land-use change and climate variability. These pressures have affected agricultural productivity, biodiversity and rural livelihoods.As a party to the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), the Government of Botswana committed to achieving land degradation neutrality (LDN). However, limited baseline data, weak monitoring systems and insufficient technical capacity constrained effective planning and reporting.To address these gaps, the government, with technical support from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), implemented a national project in Botswana to strengthen land degradation assessment, monitoring and restoration planning.
