Nature is an important part of the solution: conserving and restoring ecosystems can prevent further degradation.

The Decade has so many co-benefits for SDGs that go way beyond climate change. Restoration includes measures to create green jobs, help biodiversity, help farm income, stabilize water supply for big cities, stabilize food supply.

Like the rivers, we must continue to flow on - and the goal for this generation is restoration. It’s time to reconnect with nature, feel it, and act immediately

Degraded landscapes negatively impact 3.2 million people and cost up to 10 percent of many countries’ GDP in lost ecosystem services….We need to act now. The situation is urgent. Time is not on our side.

Coordination adapts to the progress of the restoration, making it evolve. The process is long, that's why it requires an active collaboration of different stakeholders from the government and private sector.

We have seen more than 100 years of destruction of ecosystems, especially forests, and now it’s time to enter into 100 years of restoration – and this might be the first decade.
