The land we depend on is under threat. 🍎⛈

Land degradation drives losses in agricultural production through:
🪨Erosion
🥀Soil fertility loss
☀️Salinization
💧&other processes
This is a real risk to food security.

What is soil fertility & how is it important?💭

Healthy soils sustain life. 🌿🌦️

But land degradation leads to, among other things, the loss of #soil fertility constituting a risk to food security.

Empowering women as leaders and active actors is important in community development. Lumen, one of the women rangers in Sibalom Natural Park, is proactively involved in the conservation 🤲🌳 of the Protected Area w/ the assistance of @BIOFIN_PH project of @DENROfficial & @UNDPPH

[UNDP Philippines 🇵🇭 @UNDPPH]

Women are powerful agents for #development. In Antique, generations of women rangers sustainably manage their forests. W/ @BIOFIN_PH of the @DENROfficial & @UNDPPH, they also develop tourism products for Sibalom Natural Park to increase revenues. READ 👉🏼 https://t.co/x7MEZSbWUf

Deforestation for wildlife means = loss of shelter, migration routes and reduced food availability.

Our forests, their home.

On #WorldWildlifeDay & every day, let's remember the importance of protecting the source of the world's biodiversity.
