This note focuses on the topic of access to land and land governance in protracted crises, providing some possible solutions illustrated by case studies from FAO interventions in such contexts. Protracted crisis represent a signal of alert on the fact that approaches proposed so far where not enough to deal with such a complexity. This is why a renewed thinking is needed, based on the concrete observations of local dynamics, making an effort to understand the positions and interests of the many diverse parties involved and moving out from a sectorial vision, towards a more holistic one.
The WOCAT-LADA-DESIRE mapping tool is based on the original WOCAT mapping questionnaire (WOCAT, 2007). It has been expanded to pay more attention to issues such as biological and water degradation, it also places more emphasis on direct and socio-economic causes of these phenomena, including their impacts on ecosystem services. It evaluates what type of land degradation is actually happening where and why and what is being done about it in terms of sustainable land management (SLM) in the form of a questionnaire.

Les pêches maritimes, comme les pêches pratiquées sur les grands lacs, dépendent des zones côtières de plusieurs façons. La plupart des pêches de capture sont basées sur les stocks côtiers, tandis que les autres exploitent les stocks de haute mer dont une partie de leur cycle s'effectue dans les eaux littorales, par exemple, dans les zones de reproduction ou d'alimentation. Les stocks de poisson sont également tributaires de la productivité primaire en milieu côtier pour une bonne part de la chaîne alimentaire.
Adoption of an integrated ecosystems approach for the management of land resources in the Kagera Basin will generate local, national and global benefits including: restoration of degraded lands, carbon sequestration, climate change mitigation and adaptation, agro-biodiversity conservation and sustainable use and improved agricultural production, leading to protection of international waters, increased food security and improved rural livelihoods.
