Core message

event summary

The event will showcase concrete examples of how sustainable livestock management and technologies can restore and improve grassland ecosystems, contributing to the strengthening of grassland restoration and management. This, in turn, plays a crucial role in delivering on the commitments included in NDCs. The event aims to bring together practitioners facilitating the sharing of successful experiences and encouraging the replication and scaling up of existing practices across regions.

Considering that there are approximately 1.1 billion hectares of degraded land worldwide, the discussions will delve into how effective grazing management, expansion of conservation agriculture, and implementation of mixed crop-livestock production systems can offer strategies to address land degradation.
