STANDARDS OF PRACTICE TO GUIDE THE UN DECADE ON ECOSYSTEM RESTORATION

Webinar date/time: February 15, 2023; Time 11:00 am ET

Duration: 1 hour

What will you learn?
The United Nations General Assembly declared 2021–2030 as the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. The Decade offers an opportunity to substantially advance restoration practice, science, and policy, but to do so requires a shared vision of ecosystem restoration and the principles that underpin it, as well as clear standards for what constitutes best practice. Towards this end, UN Decade partners engaged in a multi-stage process to collaboratively develop principles and standards of practice for ecosystem restoration, based on existing published guidance from a broad range of restorative activities and input from over 400 experts in the field. The principles and standards provide the essential tenets of ecosystem restoration that should be followed to maximize net gain for native biodiversity, ecosystem health and integrity, and human well-being, across all biomes, sectors and regions. This webinar will consider the 10 principles underpinning the UN Decade, and the development of guidance or best practices for planning, implementing, and monitoring and evaluation of restoration projects.

Presenters: Andrea Romero Montoya, UN FAO; James G. Hallett, SER and the University of Montana; and Cara R. Nelson, IUCN Commission on Ecosystem Management and the University of Montana
