In the first part of this talk we shall review recent developments in the field of moduli stabilisation within Supergravity theories derived from strings. The second part will be devoted to deriving the correct -gauge invariant- form for the scalar potential of N=1 Supergravity including D-terms coming from an anomalous U(1). In this context we will study the vacuum structure and see how one can find de Sitter minima.
