Desertif'actions 2017
The International Civil Society Summit took place from 27 to 28 June in Strasbourg
An edition to strengthen ties!
Co-organised with the Climate Chance association and the Convention to Combat Desertification, and with the support of the city of Strasbourg, this 3rd edition orchestrated by the CARI consolidated the inseparable link between the climate and desertification agendas. “Land degradation and climate change: time to act!”
By keeping the plenary sessions to a minimum, this year’s event gave nearly 200 participants the opportunity to get to the heart of the issues by tackling a dozen themes in workshops: adaptation, territory, land, water, gender, knowledge, migration, oases, financing, decentralised cooperation, initiatives (4/1000 and GMV). Numerous points of convergence and possible synergies were identified, providing a roadmap for action to be taken on the ground and the political messages to be conveyed at forthcoming international meetings.
