G20 Global Land Initiative (UNCCD)
Description
The Group of 20 Global Initiative on Reducing Land Degradation and Enhancing Conservation of Terrestrial Habitats (G20 Global Land Initiative) was established from the G20 Environmental Ministers Meeting in Riyadh in 2020, with the objectives to prevent, halt and reverse land degradation with an ambition to reduce degraded land by 50 percent by 2040. The Initiative aims to promote land-based solutions by sharing knowledge and data, building capacity and showcasing good practices, supporting promising projects and programmes, and engaging with relevant stakeholders for their increased access to decision-making processes regarding land restoration and management.
