First phase: 2006- 2011
National and regional structures
National Program Frameworks (NPFs)
12 national and 4 components
In 2009, all СAC updated their NPF and included
climate change, biodiversity and food security
What did we achieve in CACILM I
 7 Laws and 8 by-laws developed and adopted with direct
contribution of CACILM national projects;
 More than 20 000 people trained through CACILM network and
knowledge products (on-site training, Atlas of Natural Resources,
etc.);
 30 best SLM technologies and approaches documented and
placed in global knowledge database (WOCAT);
 5 National Financial Strategies for resource mobilization for SLM
interventions and measures developed for further capitalization;
 Benefits and outcomes of the national projects.
Total funds for CACILM Program (2007-2011) - about $155 mln, allocated by
the GEF and SPA partners (ADB, GIZ, UNDP, etc.)
What did we achieve in CACILM I
 Improved communication, exchange of experience: broad participation
and awareness of targets groups (science, responsible institutions, public
society and local communities), network of national and regional SLM
experts;
 Increased interaction of global Rio Conventions; understanding at the
national level that the land is the link for climate change adaptation and
biodiversity conservation(UNCBD NAP, CC Adaptation Strategy);
 Launched CACILM program at national and regional levels:
- new national projects under GEF-5 STAR programmed to CACILM-2;
- ongoing IFAD/ICARDA Knowledge Management project.
 Launched CACILM program at global level:
- GEF/FAO Decision Support for Mainstreaming and Scaling up of SLM.
CACILM I: Lessons learnt and way
forward
 More political and financial commitments of the CACs
 More ownership and leadership of CACs in communication with donor and
development agencies
 Lighter monitoring system
 More capacitated UNCCD National Focal Points (should be a viable link with
the ministry)
 Should be based on existing and/or sustainable structure at national and
regional levels
 Intention of the Central Asian countries to continue cooperation on
DLDD and SLM, and readiness of the GEF Secretariat to support the
CACILM program.
Updated CACILM NPFs that included new thematic areas (climate
change adaptation, integrated water management, and climate risk
management) and
Alignment of NAP with the UNCCD Strategy, which address national
priorities.
CACILM: national priorities
Integration and promotion of “green economy”. Increasing productivity of
ecosystems and mainstreaming of PES. Establishment of national mechanism
for Drought monitoring, assessment and management.

CACILM II: next steps
• Inform the national GEF focal points of the results of
Ashgabat Conference
• Conduct national workshops with stakeholders, the
coordinators of the Rio Conventions and decisionmakers to discuss the prospects and value add of
CACILM
• Identify an implementing agency for GEF
• Capitalize experience of CACILM II Component on
Knowledge Management (IFAD/ICARDA)
• In accordance with GEF proposal to prepare (the
program, the host country, etc.) and conduct a meeting
for the Central Asian countries.
Outline of Salinity Management Project Proposal
under GEF-6
Project Justification
In the sub-regional meeting ( Moscow, 2013) the Eurasian countrypartners decided the key priorities, including:
• to concentrate efforts on soil salinization and salinity management
issues across sectors at wide scales;
• to make an effort on mobilization and diversification of funding.
Prospective Country – partners: Central Asian countries and other
members of EASP states, with consideration of countries having
already reported salinity management as a priority for Technical
Assistance from FAO UN (e.g. Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Turkey,
Turkmenistan and Ukraine).

GEF Land Degradation Focal Area Strategy
GEF Land Degradation Focal Area provides the framework for eligible countries to
utilize GEF resources for implementation the UNCCD and its Strategy.
Goal: To contribute to arresting and reversing current global trends in
land degradation, specifically desertification and deforestation.
Impact: Sustained productivity of agro-ecosystems and forest landscapes in
support of human livelihoods.
The GEF-6 investments will be guided by the following four objectives:
LD-1: Maintain or improve flows of agro-ecosystem services to sustain food
production and livelihoods;
LD-2: Generate sustainable flows of forest ecosystem services, particularly in
drylands;
LD-3: Reduce pressures on natural resources by managing competing land uses in
broader landscapes; and
LD-4: Maximize transformational impact through mainstreaming of SLM for agroecosystem services.
GEF Land Degradation Focal Area Strategy
GEF Land Degradation Focal Area embraces the landscape approach
to promote integrated natural resource management.
Definitions
• The landscape approach defined according to the World Bank, as taking both a
geographical and socio-economic approach to managing the land, water and
forest resources that form the foundation – the natural capital – for meeting our
goals of food security and inclusive green growth (http://go.worldbank.org/CS4DOTLTA0).
• Integrated natural resource management is conscious process of incorporating
the multiple aspects of resource use into system of sustainable management to
meet the goals of resources users, managers, and other stakeholders (e.g.
production, food security, profitability, risk aversion and sustainable goals) (Sayer J.A.
and Campbell.B, 2004. Cambridge University Press).

Questions
• Which countries and partners identify salinity
management as a key priority and are
committed to collaborate under GEF PIF?
• Do these countries and partners support the
integrated landscape management approach?
• Should the GEF PIF salinity management be
considered as a component of CALCIM 2?
