Sustainable Land Management
Sustainable Land Management (SLM) refers to the use and management of land resources in a way that maintains their biodiversity, productivity, and capacity to meet current and future human needs while also protecting the environment. It encompasses practices and policies aimed at ensuring the long-term health and resilience of land ecosystems, taking into account social, economic, and cultural factors. SLM involves the integration of land use planning, resource management, and conservation efforts to promote sustainable development and minimize negative impacts on the environment. It is an interdisciplinary field that draws on knowledge from agriculture, forestry, ecology, geography, and other related disciplines.
