In early May of 2023, the Center for International Forestry Research and World Agroforestry (CIFOR-ICRAF) conducted an in-field training on its Land Degradation Surveillance Framework (LDSF) methodology for Nature-based Solutions (NbS) and Forest and Landscape Restoration (FLR) monitoring in Makueni County, Kenya.

The four-days training formed part of a broader project to promote NbS for land restoration in Kenya while strengthening the national monitoring technical working group, which is funded by the Kenya-UK PACT (Partnering for Accelerated Climate Transitions)
