UNCCD: Final statement after 10 years Apart from these action programs there were and still are numerous quite successful projects. These projects were implemented especially by non-governmental organizations and within bilateral cooperations and in close partnership with the farmers. |
The farmers as the actual “makers” when fighting desertification were often forgotten – too many coordination meetings, expert opinions, recommendations and reports. |
|
Challenge for the non-governmental organizations (NGOs) The NGOs are especially suited for initiating and financing the implementation of these measures or they can take over jobs as partners within a major program. |
Farmers’ organizations with intact social structures are our strongest and most reliable partners for mutual actions.
