Requirements from public organizations to deal with desertification risk
Structure of the RIO 92 Environmental Conventions General assembly (GA) National Committees and Focal Points (NAPs) Committee for Science and Technology (CST) Global Mechanism (GM) Secretariat (ad hoc nominated groups)
SOs are multi-dimensional and trade-offs to be made • Among threestrategicobjectives • Global versus local concerns • Track progress • ‘Progress’ indicators • Harmonization versus standardization of indicators SO1: to improve the living conditions of affected populations SO2: to improve the condition of affected ecosystems SO3:to generate global benefits through effective implementation of the Convention UNCCD Strategy strategic objectives (SOs)Implications for indicator approaches
Tracking progress in meeting the SOs requires • an information and knowledge base • through an M&E approach • with interactive modules • Indicators • Global • National/local • Indicator sourcing and management mechanisms at global and national/local levels • Conceptual framework that allows integrating indicators Prerequisite: operational delineation of affected areas Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) approach
