Malgré les avantages, il existe peu de politiques qui incitent les agriculteurs à investir dans le maintien et l'amélioration de la santé des sols. Cette note d'orientation met en évidence les possibilités d'inclure la santé des sols et le carbone organique du sol (COS) dans les contributions nationales déterminées (CND) du Mali.

The 2022 Restoration Barometer Report demonstrates the progress that reporting countries have made on their restoration targets during the as of the 2021-2022 reporting period.

Ce guide permet à son utilisateur de mettre en œuvre une approche participative de S&E de l’adaptation. Il met l’accent sur la découverte du contexte des risques climatiques et l’évaluation des effets d’adaptation de la GDT en s’appuyant sur les connaissances et l’expérience d’un grand nombre de parties prenantes. Il est principalement axé sur les projets de développement rural, qui veulent optimiser leur efficacité en matière d’adaptation aux effets du changement climatique, élaborer des conseils et des recommandations pour l’utilisation de la GDT dans le contexte de l’adaptation aux changements climatiques et mettre en place de solides chaînes d’impact de l’adaptation. Cette évaluation plus qualitative peut facilement être combinée avec des données supplémentaires, par exemple sur les taux d’adoption des pratiques de GDT en vue de tirer des conclusions quantitatives, telles que le nombre de ménages appliquant des pratiques efficaces d’adaptation.

Le guide a été élaboré par le Programme mondial Protection et réhabilitation des sols pour la sécurité alimentaire (ProSol) mis en œuvre par la Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH sur mandat du Ministère fédéral allemand de la coopération économique et du développement (BMZ). ProSol est mentionné partout à titre d’exemple. Néanmoins, l’approche et les critères peuvent facilement être adaptés au contexte d’autres projets de développement agricole.

To make progress on some of the world’s most pressing challenges such as food security, nutrition, climate change and inclusive economic opportunity we must look at soil as a vital asset. The Call to Action for Soil Health -- issued in July 2021 by the Private Sector Guiding Group Coalition for Soil Health -- is inspired by these challenges and the UN Food Systems Summit.
