The review was conducted with the aim to provide guidance for future engagement / investments, in particular in the context of recent AU declarations on agriculture and on land restoration by NEPAD, GEF, TerrAfrica, the Great Green Wall Initiative for the Sahel and Sahara (GGWISS), UN agencies and other donors.
This paper provides an abridged summary of the findings for easier access by country policy / decision
makers, agencies, development partners and donors, as a basis for informing future interventions for scaling-
up sustainable land management (SLM).
The exercise was not an attempt to evaluate the SIP portfolio and its impact, but rather to synthesize achievements and lessons on key aspects of SLM implementation as was originally envisioned for the overall program under TerrAfrica.
