Land degradation and loss of forests exacerbated by climate change and unsustainable land use practices in Africa threaten primarily the vital ecological functions of land, its productivity, food and water security. Poor resource governance, little access to innovation and resources and unfavorable policies prevent countries from bringing FLR to scale.
The project thus aims at increasing the economic, ecological and climate-related benefits from large-scale FLR in Cameroon, Kenya, Malawi and Rwanda. The project will provide field support, capacity building and policy advice to restore FLR at ground level, unblock large-scale FLR, leverage resources for FLR, share FLR experiences and monitor FLR results.
By establishing new C-stocks and reducing pressure on existing ones, this project mitigates climate change, increases resilience and protects biodiversity. Working together with related initiatives (Bonn Challenge) this project will contribute to making FLR a continent-wide movement.
