La fréquence de ces migrations génère très souvent des conflits. la stabilité sociale, lorsque survient la sécheresse donnant lieu à des pertes de récolte, les populations ont tendances à se déplacer pour s’établir sur des terres plus propices. [...] L’enjeu pour le processus NDT est de parvenir à mettre en exergue le potentiel en termes de croissance durable de la productivité agricole, de la sécurité alimentaire, de la résorption du chômage, de l’adaptation au changement climatique, de la réduction des flux migratoires, voire de l’amélioration de la balance des paiements.

Thus, land degradation is costly for both: […] social stability, when drought occurs resulting in crop losses, people tend to move to settle on more suitable land. The frequency of these migrations very often generates conflicts social stability, when the drought occurs giving rise to crop losses, the populations tend to move to settle on more favorable lands.[...] he challenge for the LDN process is to succeed in highlighting the potential in terms of sustainable growth of agricultural productivity, food security, reduction of unemployment, adaptation to climate change, reduction of migratory flows , or even an improvement in the balance of payments.
