Institutions and policy processes
The Drylands programme aims to promote the sustainable, equitable, participatory and decentralised management of natural resources in dryland Africa, through policies and institutions, thereby contributing to improved livelihoods, poverty reduction, and long term ecological and economic sustainability.
The programme's work covers seven main fields:
- land rights and tenure
- pastoral resources and the commons
- building participatory policy processes and institutions
- participatory soils management
- poverty and livelihoods
- desertification: assessing the convention
- information & networks
