Every song has a dance, imagine if a song on tree planting goes viral. I have a tree to plant, dig, dig and plant. A tree cannot make a forest, but many trees. One voice, one song to restore our land.
It’s easy to wait for visionary leader, but individually and in communities we can already do a lot… it’s very important to start those small movements while we wait for the large movement.
Accelerating progress towards the achievement of these noble goals is critical and requires strong partnerships at the global, regional, national & sub-national levels.
We cannot talk about gender equality without looking at the gender roles in restoration. Our lives depend on our land
Development partners need to listen, be adaptable and understand that restoration will take place in different forms and shapes according to needs, and there is no one blueprint
When we talk about a 1.5 degrees Celsius world, some people in this continent [Africa] are actually living 1.5 celsius lives.
Sometimes I think we already have everything, but failure to connect all these solutions draws us behind
We have to understand that nature conservation is not a luxury. We are dependent on nature, and the restoration of ecosystems has economic value. We must reach out to other sectors and mainstream biodiversity protection. Nature is not just about recreation and tourism, it’s about the sustainability of our future.
PRESENTATIONS
We spark and sustain conversations on sustainability. We are the world’s largest, science-led multi-sectoral platform, engaging year-round through global, regional and local events, national policy dialogues and online Digital Summits.
Evidence sits at the core of our platform. We produce, gather and disseminate diverse types of knowledge —scientific, traditional, practical — with the aim to facilitate co-learning and create impact across our five main research themes.
LEARNING
Learn about the landscape approach through certified online and in-person courses designed in collaboration with CIFOR, UNEP, World Bank and other GLF partners.
