Parterne følger bl.a. nedenstående principper i deres foranstaltninger til at opfylde konventionens mål og gennemføre dens bestemmelser:
3.1
Parterne bør - på et retfærdigt grundlag og i overensstemmelse med deres fælles, men differentierede ansvar og respektive muligheder - beskytte klimasystemet af hensyn til menneskehedens nuværende og kommende generationer. Industrilandsparterne bør derfor tage føringen i bekæmpelsen af klimaændringer og de skadelige virkninger heraf.
3.3
Parterne bør træffe forsigtighedsforanstaltninger til at foregribe, forhindre eller mind ske årsagerne til klimaændringer og afbøde de skadelige virkninger heraf. Er der risiko for alvorlige eller uoprettelige skader, bør mangel på videnskabeligt baseret sikkerhed ikke bruges som et påskud til at udsætte sådanne foranstalt ninger, da politikker og foranstaltninger til imødegåelse af klimaændringer bør være om kostningseffektive, så de kan medføre globale fordele til de lavest mulige omkostninger. I det te øjemed bør der i disse politikker og foranstaltninger tages hensyn til de forskellige socioøkonomiske forhold, de bør være omfattende, dække alle relevante kilder, dræn og reservoirer for drivhusgasser samt omfatte tilpasningstiltag og tage sigte på alle samfundssektorer.
4.1
Alle parterne skal, under hensyntagen til deres fælles, men differentierede ansvar og deres særlige nationale og regionale udviklingsprioriteringer, mål og omstændigheder:
4.1.b
opstille, gennemføre, offentliggøre og jævnligt ajourføre nationale, og, hvor det måtte være relevant, regionale programmer for foranstaltninger til at imødegå klimaændringer under hensyntagen til kilderne for antropogene og drænene for optagelse af alle drivhusgasser, der ikke er reguleret af Montreal-protokollen, og foranstaltninger til at fremme hensigtsmæssig tilpasning til klimaændringer;
4.2
Industrilandsparterne og andre parter opført i bilag I indgår nedenstående forpligtelser:
4.2.a
Hver af disse parter opstiller nationale (* 2) strategier og træffer foranstaltninger i overensstemmelse hermed til at imødegå klimaændringer ved at begrænse sine antropogene emissioner af drivhusgasser og ved at beskytte og øge sine dræn og reservoirer for drivhusgasser. Disse strategier og foranstaltninger vil vise, at industrilandene, i overrensstemmelse med konventionens mål, går i spidsen for at ændre udviklingen i antropogene emissioner på langt sigt, idet de erkender, at tilbagevenden ved udgangen af dette årti til tidligere niveauer for antropogene emissioner af kuldioxid og andre drivhusgasser, der ikke er reguleret af Montreal-protokollen, vil medvirke til en sådan ændring i udviklingen, og idet de tager hensyn til forskellene i dise parters udgangspunkter og fremgangsmåder, økonomiske strukturer og ressourcegrundlag, behov for at bevare en stærk og bæredygtig økonomisk vækst, tilgængelig teknologi og andre individuelle omstændigheder såvel som behovet for, at hver af disse parter yder rimelige og passende bidrag til den samlede indsats henimod opfyldelsen af dette mål. De nævnte parter kan gennemføre strategierne og foranstaltningerne i fællesskab med andre parter og kan bistå andre parter med at bidrage til opfyldelsen af konventionens mål, herunder navnlig målet med nærværendepunkt.

2.1
Formålet med denne konvention er at bekæmpe ørkendannelse og afhjælpe virkningerne af tørke i lande, der er ramt af alvorlig tørke og/eller ørkendannelse, særlig i Afrika, i kraft af en effektiv indsats på alle niveauer, underbygget af internationale samarbejds- og partnerskabsarrangementer, inden for rammerne af en integreret tilgang, der er i overensstemmelse med Agenda 21, med det sigte at bidrage til realiseringen af en bæredygtig udvikling i de ramte områder.
2.2
Virkeliggørelsen af dette mål kræver langsigtede integrerede strategier, der i de ramte områder på en og samme tid fokuserer på forbedring af jordens produktivitet og på rehabilitering, bevarelse og bæredygtig forvaltning af jord- og vandressourcerne, således at der skabes bedre levevilkår, især for lokalsamfundene.
10.4
Under hensyntagen til de særlige forhold og behov, der gør sig gældende for hver af de ramte landeparter, omfatter de nationale handlingsprogrammer efter omstændighederne bl.a. foranstaltninger på nogle af eller alle følgende prioriterede områder i forbindelse med bekæmpelse af ørkendannelse og afhjælpning af virkningerne af tørke i de ramte områder og for deres befolkninger: fremme af alternative næringsveje og forbedring af det nationale økonomiske klima med henblik på styrkelse af programmer for fattigdomsbekæmpelse og øget fødevaresikkerhed; befolkningsdynamik; bæredygtig forvaltning af naturressourcer; bæredygtige landbrugsmetoder; udvikling og effektiv udnyttelse af forskellige energikilder; institutionelle og juridiske rammer; styrkelse af kompetencen inden for vurderinger og systematiske observationer, herunder hydrologiske og meteorologiske tjenester, og kapacitetsopbygning, uddannelse og folkeoplysning.
11
De ramte landeparter rådfører sig og samarbejder med hinanden med henblik på i overensstemmelse med de relevante regionale gennemførelsesbilag at udarbejde subregionale eller regionale handlingsprogrammer, der kan harmonisere, supplere og effektivisere de nationale programmer. Bestemmelserne i artikel 10 finder med de nødvendige ændringer anvendelse på subregionale og regionale programmer. Dette samarbejde kan også omfatte aftalte fællesprogrammer for bæredygtig forvaltning af grænseoverskridende naturressourcer, videnskabeligt og teknisk samarbejde og styrkelse af de berørte institutioner.
19.1
