Soil and water salinization is a growing global threat that undermines food security, biodiversity, and livelihoods. It is closely linked to climate change, land degradation, and desertification. To address these challenges, FAO’s International Network of Salt-Affected Soils (INSAS), the Global Framework on Water Scarcity in Agriculture (WASAG) and several partners have joined forces to foster collaboration and raise awareness on the importance of sustainable management of saline soils and waters.
This joint webinar will be a science-policy dialogue building on the outcomes of the draft policy brief “Addressing the challenge of soil and water salinity through collaborative action,” which consolidates insights from discussions held at different Conferences of the Parties of the UNFCCC, CBD, and UNCCD between 2021 and 2024.
