Abstract

UDK 631.452(470)

Key messages of the paper include the following: (i) Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) is a new paradigm reflecting the cross-linked aspirations and demands of land- related sustainable development goals; (ii) LDN is politically sounding and attractive, it has a good background to be economically evaluated; (iii) LDN is a part of “Land- based approach” and might be considered as an operational platform for overlapping issues of 3 Rio conventions; (iv) LDN state can serve as a SLM target and overall criteria at different levels (local, subnational, national); (v) Spatial and temporal changes in land cover are measurable by indicators of land quality balance; (vi) LDN is not equally measured and is a site-specific (national-specific) matter, although global indicators of land quality can be considered as common platform for coordination; (vii) LDN concept needs advanced scientific development
