Restoration of this land is particularly important, not only for ecological purposes, but also for the regional GDP, reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, improving rural livelihoods and bolstering food and water security. Land restoration is also an important component of efforts to improve food security by placing land back into productive use, as well as a mechanism to strengthen rural income and maintain natural capital like water, soil and biodiversity. 3 Steps to Turn Commitments into Reality The growing restoration movement can thus help improve the region’s economy, its environment and its citizens’ quality-of-life.
