Summary
The Philippines is in a strategic position to respond to the Bonn Challenge and to the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, 2021 to 2030. To showcase and consolidate the Philippines’ accomplishments and potentially set a national restoration agenda to which all stakeholders are committed, a webinar series and conference-workshop will be organized. The webinars will discuss the forest and landscape restoration (FLR) concept in the context of the Philippines (first webinar); the experiences of various groups in implementing FLR in the country (second and third webinars); and funding mechanisms and opportunities for FLR (fourth webinar). A conference-workshop will follow the series to identify opportunities and mechanisms to cascade national FLR targets to local levels, building on existing restoration initiatives.
