| Resumen: | This case study compendium brings together detailed case studies on twenty Equator Prize winners that have demonstrated outstanding achievement and success in sustainable land management. Each is from the African continent and each tells the story of community leadership in addressing those social, environmental and economic issues that are specific to drylands ecosystems. The intention of the compendium is to present and promote these community projects as best practices in sustainable land management, and to offer them as instructive examples of the environment and development dividends that are possible from empowering local and indigenous community management of dryland ecosystems and resources. The case material, lessons and guidance put forward in this compendium are offered as an input to the Eleventh Conference of the Parties to the UN Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD). |
