This report serves as a roadmap for policymakers, drawing 2pathways to where the objectives of land restoration, social protection, financial inclusion and disaster risk management intersect. These synergies can make land restoration fair and equitable, respecting land rights and the tenure of those who often rely on these lands as both a home and as a source of livelihood. By centering inclusivity and equity, this approach aims to build a sustainable future in which all communities benefit from restored and resilient landscapes.
