Abstract: Shallow landslide is mainly induced by heavy rainfall and human engineering activities, and generally its treatment is simple, mostly in forms of cutting slope, gravity retaining wall, anchor and so on. These methods are costly and also have impacts on ecological environment. From the perspective of people's livelihood, we put forward a measure of shallow landslide treatment suitable for local conditions. We combine the reinforced retaining wall with the “Golden Land Project”, a land reform project beneficial to the people, and apply it to the shallow landslide treatment in mountain areas. On the one hand, the lands of the local residents can be rectified and reformed, and on the other hand, the goal of treating shallow landslide can be achieved. The treatment idea offers a reference for shallow landslide treatment in the future.

Key words: shallow landslide, landslide treatment, golden land project, reinforced retaining wall, stability of landslide
