Q. What is the primary objective of the Great Green Wall initiative in Africa?
Answer: Combat desertification
Notes: The Great Green Wall is an ambitious project aimed at combating desertification across the Sahel region of Africa, stretching from Djibouti to Senegal. It seeks to restore 100 million hectares of land by 2030, enhancing food security and biodiversity. Interestingly, India is developing its own version, the Green Wall, to combat land degradation and restore the Aravali Range, extending about 1,400 kilometers.
