Indeed, this event highlighted the importance of Earth Observation data for monitoring land degradation and their contribution to providing decision-makers and populations with relevant information on the state of the resources. It also aimed to alert the stakeholders involved in the land degradation data reporting, identification and analysis process and to have their capacities built.
It is worth recalling that through these programs and projects implemented in the Circum-Saharan region, the OSS is having a key role in the development of Earth Observation data and services. These initiatives include the development of cost-effective processes and tools for assessing land degradation in the region.
