The Silk Road Caravan is the UNCCD storytelling journey spotlighting rangelands and the people who depend on them. In Russia we travel through Dagestan, Kalmykia and Astrakhan region, documenting sustainable land use, land restoration and the science behind in action — from agrophytomelioration that fixes open sands to conversations on monitoring and scaling solutions. These landscapes show why restoring land is also about livelihoods, stability and hope.
