Wefe Nexus Solutions To Restore And Return Degraded Lands In

Di: Ava

Land degradation continues to be an enormous challenge to human societies, reducing food security, emitting greenhouse gases and aerosols, driving the loss of biodiversity, polluting water, and undermining a wide range of ecosystem services beyond food supply and water and climate regulation. Climate change will exacerbate several degradation processes. Investment in

Bonn, 7 April 2025 – Accelerating progress to restore 1.5 billion hectares of degraded land around the world and jumpstarting a trillion-dollar land restoration economy will be the focus of this year’s Desertification and Drought Day on 17 June. Land restoration involves restoring the fertility of degraded lands. The social syndrome where diminishing availability of lands, inherent low fertility, continuous soil erosion, and continuous nutrient removal without replenishment, results in a spiraling downfall in productive capacity and a diminished resilience of the soil system to provide

Understanding the opportunities and challenges of the WEFE Nexus

Highlights • 29 case studies of WEFE nexus implementation were analysed in the Mediterranean area. • An analytical framework was developed investigating the impacts of 15 SDGs. • Economic, societal, and environmental perspectives were investigated. • The magnitude of interconnection of nexus pillars with SDGs was explicitly quantified. • Six types of

Background: Digitalization for natural resources management refers to the strategic adoption and integration of conventional and innovative digital policies and technologies in sectoral and cross-sectoral domains that contribute to sustainable development objectives. Digital solutions, including Artificial Intelligence (AI), can provide substantial benefits to Water management as well as to

Tackling the WEFE Nexus approaches from diverse angles of the Mediterranean food systems, they shared case studies and tangible examples of WEFE Nexus technical solutions applied in the Mediterranean region, reflecting on success factors and challenges, and discussing ways to facilitate replication and upscaling solutions across the Whether you’re a farmer looking to adopt precision agriculture techniques, a policymaker seeking data-driven solutions, or a researcher exploring new sustainable practices, Farmonaut’s tools can support your efforts. Together, we can restore our lands, transform our agrifood systems, and ensure a thriving planet for generations Introduction The goal of the principles is to create a guidance for successfully applying, implementing and operationalising the Water-Energy-Food security Nexus (WEF Nexus) approach1 in different contexts. The selection process followed a conceptual framework, which can be perceived as a guideline for choosing the principles. The principles are built upon the

In this context, the WEFE-Nexus Socioecological Modelling Tool (WEFE-SEM Tool) proposed by the RES-MAB project aims to simultaneously address current global challenges bringing together different actors within the WEFE Nexus – policymakers, public authorities, private sector, farmers, local communities and other end-users – to

The FAO estimates that 1660 million hectares globally are degraded due to human activities, with over 60% of this degradation affecting agricultural lands, including croplands and pastures. Given that 95% of global food production depends on land, this widespread degradation presents significant challenges to agrifood systems. This study compares patterns of human

President Mahama launched ‘Tree for Life’ under Ghana’s Green Revolution on Mar 21, planting 7 million trees to restore forests, fight climate change, and boost the environment. All restoration projects follow certain guidelines, which I have enlisted in Restoring a degraded site: Process to follow. Along these guidelines, we take the following steps to restore degraded lands We should keep in mind short-term and long-term goals of the project. The short-term goals are to ensure fast revival of the degraded ecosystem and the ability to support Discover key principles of sustainable agriculture and solutions to land degradation. Transform degraded lands for food security today!

We are pleased to announce a doctoral scholarship in WEFE Nexus and Biogas Generation, focusing on waste-to-energy solutions in urban areas. This research contributes to SDG 7: Clean and Affordable Energy for All by 2030 by exploring sustainable biogas generation as part of the Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystems (WEFE) Nexus.

Establishment of tree, shrub and grass plantations of value to restore the fertility of degraded lands where soil fertirainfed cultivation is practiced (use of Acacia and leguminous plants to restore lity). e. Seeding and planting catchment areas and banks of permanent and seasonal water-courses for regulation of water-flows and erosion control. Actions to restore and return degraded lands in the Mediterranean region into productive agroecosystems Increasing agri-food supply chain (cereal) resilience in the MENA region Accelerate adaptation and mitigation to climate change in the Mediterranean region by deploying WEFE nexus solutions.

However, ecosystems − are increasingly recognized as important contributions to sustainable development solutions and, as a result, the WEF Nexus has evolved into the water energy hay ecosystems Nexus (‘WEFE nexus ’).

A continuously growing pressure to increase food, fiber, and fuel production to meet worldwide demand and achieve zero hunger has put severe pressure on soil resources. Abandoned, degraded, and marginal lands with significant agricultural constraints—many still used for agricultural production—result from inappropriately intensive management, insufficient Topic 1.2.1-2023 (IA) Actions to restore and return degraded lands in the Mediterranean region into productive agroecosystems.

Solutions must adopt a holistic approach to the WEFE interplay to achieve impact, with a pragmatic consideration of financial feasibility, economic return, sustainable resource use, and social acceptance. Zimbabwe is restoring degraded farmlands through sustainable practices like agroforestry, boosting food security and environmental sustainability. Funding mechanisms to support landowners, communities, and conservation entities to implement sustainable land use management have been established and are functioning. To ensure that degraded ecosystems are restored while contributing to ecosystem services delivery, climate change adaptation, and mitigation.

This study explores the integration of ecosystem services within the water-energy-food-environment (WEFE) nexus framework to inform conservation and d

While bioremediation is acknowledged as a promising technology for restoring polluted and degraded lands, its field potential is limited for various reasons. However, recent biotechnological advancements, including producing efficient microbial consortia, applying enzymes with higher degrees of specificity, and designing plants with

Communities nurturing trees to restore land in Ghana. Photo by Kelvin Trautman/CIFOR-ICRAF Tamale, Ghana (14 March 2024) — Experts According to a Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) report in Africa, 65% of productive land is degraded and desertification affects 45% of the continent’s land area.

Therefore, applying a WEFE nexus strategy, prioritizing the coexisting security of water, energy, food resources, embraces the possibility of enhancing the entire WEFE nexus scenery in Africa. This paper examines the current scenario through multidisciplinary viewpoints, identifying the main issues and potential solutions.
