EMA’ S Tips & Solutions 

We aim to archive Land Degradation Neutrality For Our Nation Zimbabwe. And this requires three actions

• firstly, avoiding new degradation of land by maintaining existing healthy land;

• secondly, reducing existing degradation by adopting sustainable land management practices that can slow degradation while increasing biodiversity, soil health, and food production; and

• thirdly, ramping up efforts to restore and return degraded lands to a natural or more productive state.

EMA’s LDN objectives in compliance with the United Nations Include

• maintaining or improving the sustainable delivery of ecosystem services

• maintaining or improving land productivity to enhance global food security

• Increasing the resilience of land and the populations dependent on it

• seeking synergies with other social, economic, and environmental objectives

• reinforcing and promoting responsible and inclusive land governance
