Restore Africa
Restore Africa is broader than the completed projects above. The programme targets landscape restoration and climate resilience across several countries. In Uganda, it targets 560,000 hectares of degraded land and 25 million trees.
The report also notes the temporary implementation pause following developments involving the Global EverGreening Alliance, so I would avoid presenting it simply as a “Completed Project.
Restore Africa
Restoring degraded landscapes, strengthening smallholder livelihoods and building resilience to climate change.
Restoring Landscapes for People and Nature
Restore Africa is a multi-country programme focused on environmental and community resilience through land restoration, regeneration, agroforestry and improved management of agricultural and forest areas.
In Uganda, implementation spans several regions and brings together multiple organisations working to strengthen livelihoods, food security and climate resilience.
