Drylands cover more than 40% of the world’s land surface and are home to more than two billion people. These areas, and the people, plants and animals that live in them, are predicted to face unprecedented threats as a result of climate change. Dryland regions often experience unpredictable rainfall patterns and severe land degradation, which is exacerbated by climate change.
Through effective land restoration and the prevention of farming practices that contribute to land degradation, we can enhance biodiversity and increase communities’ resilience to the effects of climate change.
