Climate change and desertification in Algeria: strategies and policies
for achieving sustainable development
T
his paper will focus on strategies and policies to combat desertification to ensure
sustainable development in Algeria in the context of climate change and will present
a long-term perspective of rational management of natural resources and a set of scenarios
on climate change and its impact in Algeria. Our study analyzed the relationship between
desertification and climate change in Algeria, particularly in the steppe region as a
multidimensional problem: economic, social, environmental and cultural. It will showcase
the most important national projects aimed at eradicating poverty and improving the life of
steppe areas such as the Green Dam project, which aims to achieve ecological balance in
these affected areas. Next, clarify the role of local civil society in raising awareness of the
importance of protecting the environment and reducing desertification. Since the signing
of the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) in 1996, Algeria
has made great efforts to reduce the spread of desertification and land reclamation in arid
and remote areas and in many local areas directly impacted on sustainable development
in general.
