Sustainable Development Goal 15 formulates an ambitious vision for the landscapes of the future: a land degradation neutral world in 2030. In this event we will discuss why Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) is not only another target but a framework by which we can leverage existing commitments to sustainably manage our working landscapes. A key challenge for the implementation of LDN and FLR commitments is land governance. Panelists and audience will explore how the governance of tenure, access, and use of land and soils is critical for the success or failure of all restoration initiatives.
