The Role of Natural Regeneration in Large-scale Forest and Landscape Restoration: Challenge and Opportunity
From November 19th to 21st, 2014, a workshop was held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to better understand the challenges and opportunities of natural forest regeneration and to construct an agenda for its inclusion as a major component of a largescale restoration initiative. Formerly forested areas with a high potential for self-recovery must be efficiently identified and the social and ecological costs and benefits of Natural Regeneration must be better understood. The specific objectives of the meeting were threefold: 1. To ensure that policymakers and practitioners are aware of low cost Natural Regeneration options and consider them as legitimate approaches in their restoration portfolio; 2. To develop a multi-sectorial framework for a low-cost restoration strategy based on Natural Regeneration, using Brazil as an incubator 3. To initiate planning for a global Natural Regeneration partnership to advance the framework in countries committed to ambitious restoration targets. The presentations and main results of the meeting have been compiled in this report.
