About MyLand
Around 15% of the world’s population is affected by land degradation, which is likely to worsen unless adequate and immediate action is taken to halt the degradation processes.
MyLand is part of the global efforts to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN), facilitating the effective allocation of technical and financial resources to groups of land users, who do not have sufficient support, but aim for cost-effective and transformative solutions.
MyLand is an initiative jointly developed by Fundación Agreste and LDN Advisory, promoted by UNCCD, and executed by a multidisciplinary team of professionals with extensive experience in various regions.
