Healthy soils provide the largest store of terrestrial carbon. When managed sustainably, soils can play an important role in climate change mitigation by storing carbon (carbon sequestration) and decreasing greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere. Conversely, if soils are managed poorly or cultivated through unsustainable agricultural practices, soil carbon can be released into the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide (CO2), which can contribute to climate change.

Changements collaboratifs: un cadre de communication pour l’adaptation au changement climatique et la sécurité alimentaire

Journal Articles & Books
November, 2010

De nos jours, les problématiques comme le changement climatique et la sécurité alimentaire nécessitent des approches multidisciplinaires et l’action des parties prenantes dans le processus d’apprentissage social afin de pouvoir trouver des moyens d’existence capables de s’adapter. Cela nécessite davantage d’information, de connaissances et de participation qui placent les besoins en actions de communication planifiées au centre des initiatives de développement (CSDI).

REDD+ and FLEGT: Working Together to Strengthen Forest Governance and Mitigate Climate Change

Policy Papers & Briefs
June, 2016
Honduras

Forest loss contributes to one-sixth of annual greenhouse gas emissions, making it a major contributor to climate change. Experience shows that approaches to reducing deforestation and forest degradation and strengthening forest governance – such as Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) and Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade (FLEGT) – can be far more effective in countering forest loss if they are jointly implemented. To date, however, few countries have capitalized on the synergies between these processes.
