The overall goal of the CPP is to combat land degradation using integrated cross sectoral approaches which enable Namibia to reach its MDG #7: "environmental sustainability" and assure the integrity of dryland ecosystems and ecosystem services. The CPP has two inter-related objectives: Objective 1: Capacity at systemic, institutional and individual level built and sustained, ensuring cross-sectoral and demand driven coordination and implementation of SLM activities. Objective 2: Cost effective, innovative and appropriate SLM techniques which integrate environmental and economic benefits are identified and disseminated. The outcomes and outputs contributing to the objectives are shown in the table below, followed by a short narrative of outputs and activities.
