                              Chronic Land Degradation:

                              Global Land Outlook 2 Report
                              Wednesday, 27 April 2022

                              A new report from the United Nations 
Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), to be released Wednesday, 27 
April 2022, offers both stark warnings and hundreds of practical ways to 
effect local, national and regional land and ecosystem restoration.

                              UNCCD’s evidence-based flagship Global Land 
Outlook 2 (GLO2) report, five years in development with 21 partner 
organizations, and with over 1,000 references, is the most comprehensive 
consolidation of information on the topic ever assembled.

                              It offers an overview of unprecedented breadth 
that includes new analyses of various future land scenarios and the 
potential contributions of land restoration investments to climate change 
mitigation, biodiversity conservation, poverty reduction, human health and 
other key sustainable development goals.

                              Report embargo: Wednesday, 27 April 2022
                              09:00 US EDT / 13:00 GMT / 14:00 UK Summer 
Time / 15:00 CEST
                              (check local time here)

                              GLO2 is being released shortly before the 
UNCCD’s 15th session of the Conference of Parties opens in Abidjan, Côte 
d'Ivoire (COP15, 9-20 May, www.unccd.int/cop15).

                              The first GLO edition in 2017 underscored the 
wide-ranging drivers, risks, and impacts of persistent land degradation, 
which have intensified considerably in the last five years – increasingly 
evident in the deterioration of human health and stable livelihoods.

                              The new report sets out the rationale, 
enabling conditions, and diverse pathways by which countries and communities 
can design and implement a customized land restoration agenda.

                              Advance access to the GLO2 report and a 
summary for decision makers, will be available next week.

                              Advance embargoed interviews with report 
authors and officials are also available.

                              A high-level virtual launch will be followed 
by a press conference Wednesday, 27 April 2022

                              The press conference will begin 27 April 2022 
at 09:00 US EDT / 13:00 GMT / 14:00 UK Summer Time / 15:00 CEST (check local 
time here)

                                About the United Nations Convention to 
Combat Desertification (UNCCD)

                                The UNCCD, established in 1994, is the only 
legally binding framework set up to address desertification and the effects 
of drought. There are 197 Parties to the Convention, including 196 country 
Parties and the European Union. The Convention aims to mitigate the impact 
of land degradation by uniting governments, scientists, policymakers, the 
private sector and communities around a shared vision to restore and manage 
the world’s land, and to ensure the sustainability of the planet and the 
prosperity of future generations.
