An advocacy document resulting from the Désertif’actions 2026 initiative, aimed at better anticipating droughts and sustainably strengthening the resilience of regions.

Due to its wide-ranging consequences, drought is now the most significant climate hazard. This phenomenon, which is affecting more and more areas around the world, has major impacts on agricultural production, hindering it in the short term but also potentially slowing it down in the longer term. One of the best responses to drought today appears to be improving the resilience of farms, which is what agroecology aims to achieve.

this note aims to explain the importance of the role of local authorities in anticipating and managing crises related to these climatic events, and how they can be supported in this role. It should help to strengthen the arguments that can be put forward by civil society representatives at COP17 of the UNCCD.

this note aims to shed light on the facilitation of pastoral mobility, which is essential for preserving and even improving resilience in arid and semi-arid areas. It should help to strengthen the arguments that civil society representatives will be able to put forward at COP17 of the UNCCD.
