Abstract:
Desertification is a major global environmental issue exacerbated by climate change. Strategies to combat desertification include prevention which seeks to reverse the process before the system reaches the stable desertified state. One of these initiatives is to implement early warning tools. This paper presents SAT (the Spanish acronym for Early Warning System), a decision support system (DSS), for assessing the risk of desertification in Spain, where 20% of the land has already been desertified and 1% is in active degradation. SAT relies on three versions of a Generic Desertification Model (GDM) that integrates economics and ecology under the predator-prey paradigm. The models have been programmed using Vensim, a type of software used to build and simulate System Dynamics (SD) models. Through Visual Basic programming, these models are operated from the Excel environment. In addition to the basic simulation exercises, specially designed tools have been coupled to assess the risk of desertification and determine the ranking of the most influential factors of the process. The users targeted by SAT are government land-use planners as well as desertification experts. SAT tool is implemented for five case studies, each one of them representing a desertification syndrome identified in Spain. Given the general nature of the tool and the fact that all United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) signatory countries are committed to developing their National Plans to Combat Desertification (NPCD), SAT could be exported to regions threatened by desertification and expanded to cover more case studies.

Abstract:
As the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (CCD) enters its implementation phase, its technical advisory bodies are endeavoring to define their purpose. Parties to the Convention have questioned the effectiveness and even the relevance of CCD science advice, recommended reforms, and estab-lished a new Group of Experts to support existing advisory processes. These efforts, however, are unlikely to bring about effective change because they overlook the mutually constitutive relationship linking natural and social order (i.e., co-production) evidenced by a century of intergovernmental cooperation on dryland degradation. Historically, knowledge about desertification has been integral to the locus of desertification governance, the definition and application of cognitive resources, and the design of policy remedies. In the CCD former sites of co-production are now sites of incongruous knowledge and policy. A comparison of past and present desertification initiatives illuminates these incompatibilities and points to ideas for fostering greater coherence in the CCD's expert advisory and implementation activities.

Abstract:
Abstract. The concept of Zero Net Land Degradation was recently proposed as the basis for a future protocol for the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification to reduce global dryland degradation. It aims at reducing the rate of land degradation and increasing the rate of restoration of already degraded land. Whereas there is recognition of the socio-economic contexts that underlie degradation processes, there is a narrow focus on land and soil as the end core that needs to be protected. In particular, there is an essential human dimension to the sustainability of drylands that should be adequately tackled. In order to provide a wider perspective of the zero net degradation in drylands, I suggest considering the different livelihoods of rural households as a framework that encompasses the multidimensional perspective of desertification as a complex social-ecological problem. I propose the Zero Net Livelihood Degradation as an enhanced protocol to combat desertification that should foster sustainable livelihood outcomes rather than only sustainable land practices or soil management.

Abstract:
International efforts to tackle desertification led by the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) support participatory approaches. The emphasis has been on dialogue between different perspectives, which are often grounded in individualism rather than prioritizing society as a whole, and as a result progress in implementation has been slow. China has made substantial progress in tackling desertification, but its approaches have been controversial, and the sustainability of its achievements has been questioned. While China has been active in UNCCD processes, its approach to addressing desertification has differed from those of other countries. China can thus offer important insights into the international campaign, while acknowledging that China can also learn from the efforts of others. We compare the UNCCD’s “bottom-up” approach and China’s “top-down” approach to better understand the challenges of tackling desertification. We examine the evolution in how desertification has been addressed and shed light on the context behind the changes, focusing on the role of science, policies, and public participation. We find a convergence between top-down and bottom-up approaches and that similar challenges have been experienced. Constant communications with outsiders have enabled adjustments and changes in both China and the international community, even though their approaches remain distinct. We conclude that both approaches are moving toward solutions that start from proactive investments of governments in financial, legal, institutional, and organizational aspects, draw on scientific insights, and which are grounded in the motivated and voluntary participation of non-state actors. Improved sharing of lessons across these approaches would help to create a better enabling form of environmental governance that contributes to tackling desertification.

Abstract. Approximately 57% of the Brazilian northeast region is recognized as semi-arid land and has been undergoing intense land use processes in the last decades, which have resulted in severe degradation of its natural assets. Therefore, the objective of this study is to identify the areas that are susceptible to desertification in this region based on the 11 influencing factors of desertification (pedology, geology, geomorphology, topography data, land use and land cover change, aridity index, livestock density, rural population density, fire hot spot density, human development index, conservation units) which were simulated for two different periods: 2000 and 2010. Each indicator were assigned weights ranging from 1 to 2 (representing the best and the worst conditions), representing classes indicating low, moderate and high susceptibility to desertification. The results indicate that 94% of the Brazilian northeast region is under moderate to high susceptibility to desertification. The areas that were susceptible to soil desertification increased by approximately 4.6% (83.4 km2) from 2000 to 2010. The implementation of the methodology provides the technical basis for decision-making that involves mitigating actions and the first comprehensive national assessment within the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification framework.

Abstract:
This study takes an integrated approach using theories and methods from both the natural and social sciences to examine western scientific, government, NGO and local land user understandings of land degradation in Swaziland. Of key importance in the research is the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), which itself marks a new, integrated approach to sustainable development, promoting concepts of community participation and local level decision-making. Grounded in the theory of political ecology, these concepts are examined in the Swazi context. Local knowledges are integrated with western scientific understandings of land degradation to create hybrid understandings of environmental degradation and to examine issues such as how far, under what conditions and for whom land degradation is problematic. Understandings of soil fertility, drought, changes to woodland areas and soil erosion in three case study villages are critically assessed, as local inputs into policies addressing land degradation are evaluated and reasons behind both individual and collective actions to combat degradation are considered. Issues of access and power are found to dominate natural resource management in Swaziland, as the majority of the power is concentrated in the hands of the minority of the population. Using a community land rehabilitation project as a case study, it is discovered that concepts such as community participation and local level decision-making by democratically elected village committees can cause conflict to develop between new and traditional institutions, as new institutions challenge the traditional balance of power. It is concluded that until changes are made to broader scale governance structures, concepts advocated by the UNCCD will not be implemented to their full potential in Swaziland and this could have important social and ecological implications.

This paper presents the main objective to analyze the Technical Cooperation Project for implementation of the Convention to Combat Desertification, within the Sustainable Management of Land, recognized by the acronym PCT/INT/3201, and agreed, through a Memorandum of Understanding, between the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP) and the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), given that all states of the Community are members of the Convention. Running this PCT had direct support of their own CPLP since that would serve African Countries of Portuguese Official Language and Timor Leste, and also had the technical and financial assistance of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the support and assistance of the Global Mechanism (MM) and the former Portuguese Institute for Development Support (IPAD). To achieve this greater goal, the following steps were performed: In the first chapter it studied the evolution of the international discussion on desertification. Therefore, it sought to understand the issue of desertification in a general context. Then it explored the understanding of international cooperation, based on the construction of theoretical rationalist perspectives international on relations in order to facilitate the understanding of the international discussion on desertification, to come to the knowledge of the Convention to Combat Desertification, with its various Conferences of the Parties (COP) and meetings. In the second chapter it discussed the Community of Portuguese Language Countries and its performance in relation to the environment. This objective was satisfied through the contextual study of the creation of the CPLP, specifying on which it is based, your goals and knowledge about the structure of this community. It also sought to explore the understanding of the physical space of the Member States of the CPLP and their geographical locations, and the situation of these States, in particular the PALOP and Timor Leste, in relation to the process of desertification and/or degradation of land. Then, they analyzed the international partnerships mentioned above, in the development of PCT CPLP/FAO 3201. Finally, in the third chapter, it was thoroughly investigated in this Project. Therefore, it sought to study it from the history of your proposal through the understanding of its two phases (2008-2010, 2010-2011), to examine the plans of interviews conducted with three actors, which had partial or full participation in the Project. With these interviews, it sought to develop a better understanding of the initial challenges, the difficulties of implementation, contributions and perceptions of the end situation, check the lessons learned from this PCT. It was concluded that, despite failures and difficulties presented by the project, this brought contributions to help implement the UNCCD, which will be observed throughout the work.
O presente trabalho apresenta como objetivo principal analisar o Projeto de Cooperação Técnica para implementação da Convenção de Combate à Desertificação, no marco da Gestão Sustentável das Terras, reconhecido pela sigla PCT CPLP/FAO 3201, acordado, por meio de um memorando de entendimento, entre a Comunidade dos Estados de Língua Portuguesa (CPLP) e a Convenção das Nações Unidas de Combate à Desertificação (CNUCD), haja vista que todos os Estados da Comunidade são membros desta Convenção. A execução deste PCT teve apoio direto da própria CPLP, uma vez que serviria aos Países Africanos de Língua Oficial Portuguesa e ao Timor Leste, e também contou com a assistência técnica e financeira da Organização das Nações Unidas para Agricultura e Alimentação (FAO), do Mecanismo Mundial (MM) e do antigo Instituto Português de Apoio para o Desenvolvimento (IPAD). Para o alcance desta meta maior, foram realizados os seguintes passos: No primeiro Capítulo, foi estudada a evolução da discussão internacional sobre desertificação. Para tanto, buscou-se a compreensão da questão da desertificação em um contexto geral. Em seguida, explorou-se o entendimento acerca da cooperação internacional, a partir da construção teórica de perspectivas racionalistas das relações internacionais, a fim de facilitar o entendimento da discussão internacional sobre desertificação, até chegar ao conhecimento da Convenção de Luta contra Desertificação, com suas diversas Conferências das Partes (COP) e reuniões. No segundo Capítulo, abordou-se a Comunidade dos Países de Língua Portuguesa e sua atuação em relação ao meio ambiente. Este objetivo se conformou por meio do estudo contextual da criação da CPLP, especificando em que ela se baseia, seus objetivos e o conhecimento acerca da estrutura desta Comunidade. Também buscou-se explorar o entendimento a respeito do espaço físico dos Estados-membros da CPLP e suas localizações geográficas, bem como verificou-se a situação destes Estados, em especial dos PALOP e do Timor Leste, em relação ao processo de desertificação e/ou degradação de terra. Por fim, foram analisadas as parcerias internacionais supracitadas, no desenvolvimento do PCT CPLP/FAO 3201. Finalmente, no terceiro Capítulo, foi detalhadamente analisado o presente Projeto. Para tanto, buscou-se estudá-lo, a partir dos antecedentes de sua proposta, passando pela compreensão de suas duas fases (2008-2010; 2010-2011), até a análise dos planos de entrevistas, realizados com três atores, os quais tiveram participação parcial ou inteira no Projeto. Com essas entrevistas, buscou-se desenvolver um melhor entendimento dos desafios iniciais, das dificuldades de implementação, contribuições e percepções da situação final e, verificar as lições aprendidas com esse PCT por parte dos entrevistados. Concluiu-se que, apesar das falhas e das dificuldades apresentadas pelo projeto, este trouxe contribuições para ajudar a implementar a CNUCD, que serão observadas ao longo do trabalho.

Abstract:
Thesis advisor: M. Brinton Lykes
Most recent figures indicate that approximately one in five children in the United States is poor (Children’s Defense Fund, 2010; Moore et al., 2009). Thus, the United States ranks considerably below other Northern Hemisphere nations in indices of both child poverty and child well-being (Rainwater & Smeeding, 2003; UNICEF, 2007). Moreover, while the United States has not ratified the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), this treaty has been central in reframing policy and practices towards reducing child poverty in some other Northern Hemisphere nations. Many authors and activists have suggested that US nonratification of this Convention is based on “American exceptionalism.” This paper examines these claims – and counterclaims – and explores, through comparisons with several other Northern Hemisphere nations, how the Convention on the Rights of the Child, if ratified and implemented through US policy and practice, could play a significant part in tackling child poverty in this nation

Abstract:
In the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, the environmental protection of the marine environment was first addressed in a comprehensive manner on an international level. However, the Convention distinguishes between four different sorts of pollution depending on which source the pollution originates from. Still, one of these sources play a more crucial role in the protection of the marine environment than the other since that source is estimated to stand for 80 percent of all the marine pollution; namely marine pollution from land-based sources. As the throw-away culture has led to products being disposed of at a faster rate than ever before, in particular plastic products, the amount of land-based debris has also substantially increased over the last decades. This increased disposal rate of products in combination with poor waste treatment has consequently led to many kinds of wastes ending up in the ocean and causing severe harm, not only to the marine environment and its living species, but also to humans that eat the fish and use the many other ecosystem services of the Sea. In this thesis, some prominent international conventions on marine pollution from land-based sources are examined; namely the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, the Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and their Disposal, as well as the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants. To achieve United Nations Sustainable Development Goal number 14.1 to significantly reduce marine pollution from land-based sources by 2025, this thesis claims that international laws addressing this sort of pollution need to be implemented. Moreover, this thesis rests on the belief that regional implementation is a crucial component in making states align with international law. However, while regional implementation has been ambitious in the European Union Law, many regions still lack enforceable frameworks that aim to reduce and prevent marine pollution from land-based sources.

Abstract The purpose of this study is to evaluate the actual performance and effectiveness of the United Nations Convention on Combat Desertification (or UNCCD, the Convention) since its entry into force in December 1996. This study applies “Oslo-Potsdam Solution” posed by Arild Underdal as a research framework for evaluating the effectiveness of the UNCCD, while the year of entry into force of the Convention is designated as a “point of reference”, articles of the Convention are deemed as “collective optimum” or collective objectives for combating desertification and the obligations laid down by the provisions of the Convention are designated as evaluation standards in examining the implementation of UNCCD in global, regional and national levels as well as the gap between actual performance of the Convention and its objectives so as to better understand the relative improvement that has been made since the UNCCD entered into force. This study concludes that the implementation of UNCCD is ineffective on global, regional, and national levels. This Convention has certainly constructed valuable transnational communication channels and an implementation framework for dealing with desertification problems. However, the apathy and lack of substantive actions of the Contracting Parties to the Convention led to the consecutive failures on all three levels. That the Convention does not determine the ratio of Official Development Assistance (ODA) to Gross Nations Product (GNP) on the part of developed Contracting Parties to the Convention, nor impose any sanction for imbreachments of the Convention, made this Convention powerless in terms of its legal binding force which, in turn, indirectly led to the shortage of fund and technology in supporting the implementation activities on every levels. How to promote communication and integrate existing programmes under the framework of the UNCCD so as to raise environmental awareness and care of the Contracting Parties to the Convention for further harmonizing environmental conservation and economic development needs further study.
