  2. Take home messages • SESSION 1:MOBILIZING FINANCIAL RESOURCES • Sustainable Land Management (SLM) is a solution to land degradation • Technology (techniques, approaches, practices) is important but not enough • Multi-stakeholder involvement is necessary • Finance needed from broad range of sources: internal, external, public, private • Integrated Financing Strategies (IFS) are processes leading to the required investments

  3. Take home messages • SESSION 2 : • MAKING THE CASE • Mainstreaming is the process leading to the integration of SLM in policy and budget processes – both in developing and developed countries • Economic assessment of the total value of land and cost of land degradation is needed to make the case • Importance of measuring returns on investment (outputs) in addition to finance (inputs) • Examples from countries (e.g. Cameroon, Eritrea, Jordan, etc.) demonstrate positive results from Integrated Financing Strategies (IFS) processes

  4. Take home messages • SESSION 3: • SEIZING NEW OPPORTUNITIES • The public sector alone cannot deal with the issue of land degradation • Vast range of innovative financing sources, instruments and mechanisms • Examples: Market Based Mechanisms, Private sector financing, climate change financing • Importance of adopting an inclusive and participatory approach in the promotion of SLM (e.g. in setting up Payments for Ecosystem Services)
