Walji will explore the practical constraints countries face in implementing large-scale ecosystem restoration, with particular attention to the role of productive landscapes in sustaining food systems and water security. Drawing on work under the Global Biodiversity Framework’s Target 2 and Integrated Landscape Management initiatives, the seminar will examine how restoration is not a binary shift from “degraded” to “restored,” but a continuum of recovery, where agricultural lands, rangelands, forests, and agroforestry systems can progressively rebuild ecosystem services.
