Over three days, the Caux Dialogue will gather senior figures from public, private, and non-profit sectors, as well as young professionals and grass-roots actors in a series of adapted formats. The meeting aims to deepen understanding of the links between land degradation and security; share lessons learned on sustainable land restoration; examine the potential for investment in land restoration and peace-building; present training resources; and build trust needed for land-peace policies, effective collaboration and partnerships. The meeting is supported, in part, by the UN Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD).
