Erosion is principally caused by water (ignore wind and sun and temperature differences for now). So controlling the flow of water would be a first.
Possibly by planting plants with extensive root systems to lock in the soil.
During the planning process by looking at rain catchment - e.g. when designing a car park all the asphalt will capture the rain which will then run off and cause local erosion unless it is channeled to drain.
You can strengthen the soil - use soil nails or a chemical grout
You can encourage the water to drain rather than run over the surface (French drains or wicking drains)
