Combating Desertification
Jean-Marc Sinnassamy, Senior Environmental Specialist
“African Initiative for Combating Desertification to Strengthen Resilience to Climate Change in the Sahel and Horn of Africa”
March 1-3, 2017, Dakar, Senegal
Land Degradation Focal Area
Mandate – Finance efforts to arrest and reverse current global trends in land
degradation, specifically desertification and deforestation.
Focus – Sustainable Land Management (SLM) in production landscapes
Impacts:
• Flow of ecosystem services increased or maintained
• Sustained crop, livestock, and forest production (existing areas)
• Sustainable livelihoods (development benefit)
GEF is a Financial Mechanism of the UNCCD
Land Degradation Focal Area is main GEF financing window Sustainable Land Management
GEF financing leverages resources in agriculture, livestock, forestry for global environmental benefits
Investing in Sustainable Land Management supports implementation of the UNCCD by affected country Parties
Land Degradation Focal Area
Sustainable Land Management
“….a knowledge-based procedure that integrates land, water,
biodiversity, and environmental management to meet rising food and fiber demands while sustaining livelihoods and the environment ” (World Bank 2006).

GEF-6 LD Objectives and Programs
Goal: To arrest or reverse land degradation (desertification and deforestation)
LD 1: Agriculture and Rangeland
Systems
LD 2: Forest Landscapes
LD 4: Institutional and Policy Frameworks
1. Agro-ecological Intensification – efficient use of natural capital (land, soil, water, and vegetation) in crop and livestock production systems
2. SLM in Climate-Smart Agriculture – innovative practices for increasing vegetative cover and soil organic carbon
3. Landscape Management and Restoration –community and livelihood-based options for increasing forest and tree cover
5. Mainstreaming SLM in Development – influencing institutions, policies, and governance frameworks for SLM
LD 3: Integrated Landscapes
4. Scaling-up SLM –moving appropriate interventions to scale for crop and rangeland productivity
Sustainable Forest Management
GEF-6: Adaptation Programming Strategy
Least Developed Countries Fund (LDCF) and Special Climate Change Fund (SCCF)
• Agriculture and food security• Water resources management• Coastal zone management• Infrastructure• Disaster risk management
• Natural resources management• Health• Climate information services• Climate-resilient urban systems• Small Island Developing States
Thematic Priorities for Adaptation
Adaptation Programming Strategy
Aims to “increase resilience to the adverse impacts of climate change in vulnerable developing countries,through both near- and long-term adaptation measures in affected sectors, areas and communities” (GEF/LDCF.SCCF.16/03)
1) Reduce the vulnerability of people, livelihoods, physical assets and natural
systems
2) Strengthen institutional and technical capacities
3) Integrate climate change adaptation into relevant policies, plans and associated processes

Opportunities Looking Forward
• Alignment with GEF investments and activities at national (CSIF, LDN) and sub-regional level (IAP, SAWAP)
• Harmonization across scales – knowledge sharing and learning (TerrAfrica)
• Integrated approach – tackling drivers of desertification at scale; managing natural capital (land, soil, water, vegetation, and biodiversity)
