MEDACTION: Policies for land use to combat desertification.

Building on the significant experience in investigation Mediterranean desertification gained in the MEDALUS projects, MEDACTION aims to address the main issues underlying the causes, effects and mitigation options for managing land degradation and desertification in the Northern Mediterranean region.

MEDACTION is being funded by the European Commission under Framework Programme 5 and will last for three years, from 2001 to 2003. For full details see the MEDACTION web site: http://www.icis.unimaas.nl/medaction
