Restoring Degraded Lands: Achieving UN Sustainable Development Goals addresses challenges for researchers and policymakers in environmental management and sustainability in identifying, characterizing, and classifying degradation phenomena occurring in terrestrial landscapes. The book presents accounts of degradation processes, site-specific strategies for revitalization, and socio-economic and climate impacts of sustainable management. Through the latest research from experts in the field and global case studies, the book offers strategies for revitalizing degraded lands, explores impacts of restoration on socioeconomics of local populations, and presents approaches for sustainable land management. These strategies provide a framework for eco-restoration, taking into account ecological, environmental, and social well-being.
