This research activity titled “ACTIVITY A6: DEVELOP METHODS FOR INTEGRATED ASSESSMENT OF RESTORATION INTERVENTIONS (IMPACT ON SOIL AND ECOSYSTEM FUNCTIONS) AT BADIA SCALE AND AT EXPERIMENTAL SITE SCALE” was funded as part of the Project titled “Sustainability and Operationalization of Established Regional Agricultural Research Centers in Five Arab Countries” (sub-project “Restoration of Badia ecosystem services for enhanced community livelihood”), granted by the Arab Fund for Economic & Social Development (AFESD) and implemented by ICARDA.

The research Activity “Improvement of water productivity and adaptation to climate change through the development of integrated inputs (water and nitrogen) management options” was launched in 2015, and implemented by ICARDA in Morocco, in the frame of the Project titled “Sustainability and Operationalization of Established Regional Agricultural Research Centers in Five Arab Countries”, which was granted by the Arab Fund for Economic & Social Development (AFESD).

Within the framework of its collaboration with Tunisia, the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), with the financial support of the CRP Livestock Program led by ILRI and the BMZ / GIZ, organized a workshop on "Partnerships to improve pastoral policies in Tunisia". This workshop represents an important step towards a better pastoral policy in Tunisia, by developing strategies for updating the pastoral code aiming at better governance of rangelands.

Identification institutional and legal limitations that hamper the development of rangelands taking into account the requirements of the rational management of natural resources, the compliance to the clauses of international resolutions, and the local and decentralized development

This report summarizes the work done during 2017 to review the relevant policies, programs, and interventions implemented during the recent decades in Badia, as part of Activity A6.

This report summarizes the work done during 2017 to elaborate a typology of the SWC and WH structures implemented in the Badia rangelands, based on both literature and remote sensing evidence, as part of Activity A6.

This template is related to the study "Identifying Women's needs related to rangeland governance". The purpose of this study is to explore gender roles, relations, constraints and opportunities in livestock production in interdependent agricultural systems of Tunisia, constituting of forest, rangelands and/or agriculture. Overall, there is very little research conducted on gender issues (such as roles, relations, and responsibilities) in agriculture in Tunisia, even less so in rangelands.
