Project’s development objective (PDO): Enable communities to contribute to combating land degradation in critical areas
|
|
|
Rural communities have developed participatory integrated land and water management plans that have positive impacts on native biodiversity and carbon sequestration, as demonstrated by the increased number o f hectares under SLM and soil conservation practices that reduce soil and water runoff and erosion

The indicator concerns mainly the Center Region. Consultants are on the field to collect data. And the value will be estimated by doing the ratio of the area under “best bet” practice over the total cultivable area
