Rangelands subjected to land degradation are the object of management interventions under the GEF funded project: Healthy Ecosystems for Rangeland Development (HERD). HERD builds on the sustainable management of pastoral rangelands for the provision of ecosystem services and protection of biodiversity. The concept of HERD is being consolidated through this project on the back of numerous projects, programs, initiatives, studies, scientific articles and policy papers.

The four-year GEF project focuses on desertification of pastoral rangelands in Jordan and Egypt. In addition, the project aims to catalyse the scaling-up of HERD, both regionally and globally.

HERD aims at strengthening restoration and sustainable management of pastoral rangelands for the provision of ecosystem services and protection of biodiversity in Egypt and Jordan and catalysing scale up regionally and globally.
