Organizational Setting
Mauritania’s natural resources and ecosystem services are under significant pressure caused by population growth, repeated droughts, climate change and especially human activities which are not adapted to the fragile nature of the ecosystems, the natural regeneration rate of the resources and the natural climatic variations. Pressure on pastoral and forest resources is especially high during times of drought and rainfall deficit. Overexploitation of natural resources disrupts ecosystems’ equilibrium, reduces diversity, and ecosystem services available to local populations which affect access to food, water and energy.
FAO supported the government of Mauritania to finance a project entitled “Integrated ecosystem management project for the sustainable human development in Mauritania “through the Global Environment Fund (GEF).
The project is aimed to enhance integrated, participatory and gender sensitive development, reduce land degradation and restore vegetation cover, increase water availability, and increase and diversify and stable sources of income for the local population through more sustainable exploitation of natural resources.
