Cover Story: Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) is a recent UNCCD initiative aimed at addressing desertification. Its goal is to stabilize land degradation at 2015 levels by planning future land use and implementing restorative actions to offset degradation. Turning this conceptual effort into effective action requires a systemic approach. This is essential due to (i) the decoupling of resource consumption and production, which leads to a virtual trade in land degradation, (ii) the need for coordination across administrative levels and sectoral interests, and (iii) the integration of various strategies related to energy, food, agriculture, and water. This work proposes tools such as system dynamics and cognitive maps to illustrate the multiple interconnections within the complex socioecosystems that we inhabit. View this paper
