Case Studies

The work of the MONALISA project will be carried out in the 6 Mediterranean case studies:

  • Los Pedroches,
  • Médenine
  • Berchidda-Monti and Alta Mugria Park
  • Asterousia 
  • Beit Dajan.

The solution groups that are being assessed, replicated and expanded are nature-based and high-tech:

  • Innovative grazing systems
  • Microbial-based solutions
  • Conservation agriculture practices
  • Ecological restoration practices
  • Water harvesting techniques;
  • Treated wastewater reuse in agriculture.

 

Within the case studies, stakeholders will be fully engaged in collaborative design, implementation, and evaluation processes, building capacities to adopt and implement these innovative solutions to prevent and mitigate land degradation in the Mediterranean region.
