Report launch: Rooted in restoration: youth-led transformative change for regreening Africa
This event will mark the launch of the report “Rooted in restoration: youth-led transformative change for regreening Africa“, which highlights shared experiences, challenges, and solutions suggested by several dozen young landscape practitioners and experts across Africa who participated in a series of consultations centered on the restoration of African ecosystems. Produced in partnership with Regreening Africa, UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, FAO, European Union Commission, CIFOR-ICRAF and the Global Landscapes Forum, and co-written by several experts in the field, this report covers gaps and solutions across policy, finance, capacity building, and communication to show how landscape restoration can be scaled for long-term impact on people and the planet.
Join us on 9 December at 09:00 local time (UTC+3) in the Restoration Pavilion at the UNCCD COP16.
