Title: Tanzania - Reversing Land Degradation trends and increasing Food Security in degraded ecosystems of semi-arid areas of Tanzania (LDFS) – July 2023
Description: This aerial view shows the harsh reality of land degradation in Kondoa District. The land is full of gullies, eroded slopes, and barren patches, a stark reminder of the environmental challenges faced by the region.

Years of unsustainable practices, deforestation, and climate change have taken their toll. The consequences are far-reaching, impacting agricultural productivity, water resources, and the overall well-being of local communities.

Reversing Land Degradation trends and increasing Food Security in degraded ecosystems of semi-arid areas of central Tanzania (LDFS) is one of 12 national projects under the Integrated Approach Pilot program on Fostering Sustainability and Resilience for Food Security in Sub-Saharan Africa (IAPFS). The project focuses on geographic areas with high levels of poverty, food insecurity, malnutrition of children under 5 years of age, land degradation and average annual rainfall. It also centres on areas where there may be conflict among communities related to access to and use of crop, grass and forest land and water resources.
