The Economics of Desertification, Land Degradation, and Drought Toward an Integrated Global Assessment, ZEF- Discussion Papers on Development Policy No. 150, Center for Development Research, Bonn, May 2011.
<b>Land degradation</b> has not been comprehensively addressed at the global level or in developing countries. A suitable economic framework that could guide investments and institutional action is lacking. This study aims to overcome this deficiency and
to provide a framework for a global assessment based on a consideration of the costs of action versus inaction. Thus, a type of Stern Review (Stern 2006) for desertification, land degradation, and drought
(DLDD) is aimed for on the basis of this study. The urgency of land degradation problems, the
increased value of land, and new science insights all suggest that the time is ripe for a global
assessment of the economics of DLDD (<b>E-DLDD</b>).
