The International Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO), on behalf of the Global Partnership on Forest and Landscape Restoration (GPFLR), has published a report titled, ‘Restoring Forests and Landscapes, the Key to Sustainable Future,’ which showcases the success of large-scale restoration of landscapes burdened by natural or man-made disasters. Focusing on positive messages from ongoing restoration projects, the report presents diverse cases studies, including: a project in Chile to establish payments to farmers restoring riparian areas; a national project in Ghana that includes establishing commercial teak plantations and reintroducing native tree species; restoration of the Fandriana-Marolambo landscape in Madagascar that includes planting indigenous trees and related economic activities; and a project in Turkey to restore 2.3 million hectares that includes soil and water protection, restoring tree cover along roadsides and establishing green belts around cities.
