2.1 Descrição curta da abordagem

The approach involves, the use of incentives to motivate particpation of communities in the planning and implementation of SWC activities which improve land productivity and income.

2.2 Descrição detalhada da abordagem

Descrição detalhada da abordagem:

Aims / objectives: The purpose is to tackle food shortages of the participating households in preventing and controlling soil erosion by conserving soil and water and through improving soil fertility, enhance the production and productivity of lands, which are aimed at improving the income of the communities and hence improving livlihoods. The specific objective of the approach is to enable each individual land user to be aware of land degradation problem and the use of SWC. . The approach includes discussion during general meetings on the concept, discussion of SWC specialist with community memebers, demonstration, and conducting training.

Stages of implementation: The stages of implementation include site selection, making participatory work plan, selection of participants, construction of structures and planting trees.

Role of stakeholders: Communities participate in palnning and management, implementation of the technology which consists of soil consrevation and stablizing of bunds by planting suitable plant species.

The Approach focused mainly on SLM with other activities (Infrastructure development, water harvesting, income generating)

To allviate the problem of food insecurity and to rehabilitate the degraded lands by involving the communities in planning and implementaion of SWC activities.

The SLM Approach addressed the following problems: Land degradation, soil erosion, food insecurity and low soil fertility.

	Envolvimento do usuários de terra/comunidades locais	Especifique quem estava envolvido e descreva as atividades
Iniciação/motivação	Participativo	Mainly:public meetings; partly: interviews/questionnaires; At this stage public meeting is important to change land users attitudes.
Planejamento	Participativo	workshops/seminars, rapid/participatory rural appraisal
Implementação	Apoio externo	Mainly: responsibility for major steps; partly: responsibility for minor steps; Proirity is given to highly degraded areas for treatment.
Monitoramento/avaliação	Nenhum
Research	Nenhum

3.4 Decisão sobre a seleção de tecnologia/tecnologias de GST

Especifique quem decidiu sobre a seleção de tecnologia/tecnologias a serem implementadas:

• Principalmente usuários da terra, apoiados por especialistas em GST

Explique:

During the community meatings land users choose the proper SWC technology. The SWC specialists give explanation on the importance/use of the technology.

Decisions on the method of implementing the SLM Technology were made by mainly by land users supported by SLM specialists. Eventhough land users can make decissions on the methods of implementing SWC technology, advise from SWC specialist is required.

4.1 Reforço das capacidades/ formação

Foi oferecida formação aos usuários da terra/outras partes interessadas?

Sim

Especifique quem foi capacitado:

• Usuários de terra

• SWC specialists (1), extensionists/trainers (3)

Tipo de formação:

• Em exercício
• Áreas de demonstração
• Reuniões públicas

Assuntos abordados:

Training on how to rehabilitate degraded lands by closing the area, laying out and constructing of physical and biological techniques to conserve soil and water and how to maintain them.

4.2 Serviço de consultoria

Os usuários de terra têm acesso a um serviço de consultoria?

Sim

Especifique se foi oferecido serviço de consultoria:

• nas áreas dos usuários da terra

Descreva/comentários:

Name of method used for advisory service: Conventional extension package: Household package; Key elements: mass mobilization (regular extension package), group work (MERET), family labour (Household package); 1) Mainly: government's existing extension system, Partly: projects own extension structure and agent; Extension staff: mainly government employees 2) Target groups for extension: land users; Activities: implement soil and water conservation activites.

Advisory service is quite adequate to ensure the continuation of land conservation activities; Awarness creation given to SWC specialists and land users, so that they will be able to practice SWC technologies. As a result, substantial amount of degraded land have been rehabilitated and made productive.

Não

6.1 Impactos da abordagem

6.3 Atividades de sustentabilidade de abordagem

Os usuários da terra podem manter o que foi implementado através da abordagem (sem apoio externo)?

• Incerto

Caso negativo ou incerto, especifique e comente:

There are different types of supports: without specialists, technical support it is most unlikely that they will continue specially on communal lands. Without incentives the approach could be continued on individual land holdings as well as on communal lands, but there could be some communities who without food support may not be able to support their livelihoods until they create their own assets
