Land degradation is a major driver of insecurity, forced migration and conflicts worldwide. Our failure to act is turning issues that were once imagined to be domestic problems into matters of global instability. For example, the US National Security Strategy (2010) refers to climate change as a key global challenge that will lead to conflicts over refugees and resources, suffering from drought and famine, catastrophic natural disasters, and the degradation of land across the globe. These issues are intimately linked. By addressing land degradation as an underlying cause of instability and insecurity, UNCCD stakeholders can reduce the effects of climate change, prevent future conflict over scarce natural resources and strengthen the security, resilience and well-being of vulnerable populations.
