In the next decade, the world will probably see the biggest ecological restoration effort in history. We have seen a recent wave of major commitments to large-scale landscape restoration.

In March, the United Nations General Assembly declared the 2021-2030 period the UN Decade on Ecological Restoration. What is still missing are the underpinnings of a financial strategy: How do we finance and execute restoration and sustainable land use at the necessary scale? How do we coordinate actions across many nations, sectors, and value chains to ensure that we’re meeting our goals?
