The United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) is the global vision and voice for land. We unite governments, scientists, policymakers, private sector and communities around a shared vision and global action to restore and manage the world’s land for the sustainability of humanity and the planet. Much more than an international treaty signed by 197 parties, UNCCD is a multilateral commitment to mitigating today’s impacts of land degradation and advancing tomorrow’s land stewardship in order to provide food, water, shelter and economic opportunity to all people in an equitable and inclusive manner.

Rangelands 🏜️ are sometimes wrongly labeled as “wastelands.” This leads to poor tenure security and unsustainable land management, causing further losses to already fragile ecosystems.
In reality, rangelands support about 60% of the world’s food🐮🥛 production, and need to be protected by achieving Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) ✅.
