No results found.Soil erosion from both wind and water as well as soil salinity have caused extensive land degradation in the Islamic Republic of Iran. In addition, an overconsumption of natural resources, water scarcity and ineffective policies and management practices have exacerbated the land degradation and led to a decline in biodiversity. To tackle these issues, this project focused on the promotion of Sustainable Land and Forest Management (SLFM) practices among local communities and institutions. Its design included four main elements: capacity development, participatory planning, policy integration and awareness-raising activities. -
