An application in Colombia. rev.udcaactual.divulg.cient. [online]. 2020, vol.23, n.1, e1486.  Epub 30-Jun-2020. ISSN 0123-4226.  https://doi.org/10.31910/rudca.v23.n1.2020.1486.

Relating issues such as climate change and land degradation is increasingly relevant, but this requires combining the size of spatial and temporal scales with local reality. This study raises and applies methodological guidelines to relate territorial planning to the desertification process at the regional-local level. Its application was carried out in a basin of Colombia at local regional scales and its methodology is developed in five phases, from the cartographic identification of the process, to the possibilities of local action to address it, with emphasis on territorial development instruments. On the one hand, the results show the specific mapping of the desertification process at regional and local level, and on the other hand, the identification of restrictions for territorial development. Despite the gray outlook that was evident, a light of hope was also captured for the gradual planning that allows the prevention and management of the desertification process, that is why it is recommended to apply the methodology at regional-local level and include prospective techniques in scenarios arranged with the communities.
