    A review of local-level investment mechanisms

    To meet global restoration needs and recover degraded forests and landscapes, adequate public and private investments are required to support restoration activities on the ground. The new FAO publication “Local financing mechanisms for forest and landscape restoration: A review of local level investment mechanisms” examines the pathways available to financing restoration for a positive local level impact. The document provides an in-depth study of how financial mechanisms can be coordinated to maximise the leverage of finance and the adoption of practices at scale across the landscape. By examining some of the accessible investment mechanisms and planning strategies, it aims to support discussions, thinking and decision-making on how to effectively find, select and use investments to provide appropriate incentives and maximize forest and landscape restoration actions. Finally, the publication underlines how facilitators can bridge the gap between smallholders and investors, boosting investments, while promoting local ownership.

    Significant investment is required to meet international restoration targets. Such investments often exceed national budgets and therefore responsible and coordinated investments are needed. The FAO Forest and Landscape Restoration Mechanism (FLRM) has been working with in-country partners to provide diverse support for partner financing needs and to develop innovative financing mechanisms to sustainably fund the implementation of restoration activities on the ground. This leaflet provide a range of diverse financial mechanisms that leverage financial support for the implementation of restoration activities.
