Peru: National Strategy for the Restoration of Degraded Ecosystems and Forest Lands (ProREST) 2021-2030
Strategy led by SERFOR to restore degraded ecosystems and forest lands using a landscape approach, generating ecosystem goods and services that reduce vulnerability to climate change. It sets a goal of reducing the national restoration gap by at least 15% (over 330,000 hectares) by 2030, alongside capacity-building and governance targets in at least twelve departments. It articulates three specific objectives—ecosystem recovery in priority areas, technical capacity building, and multi-stakeholder governance strengthening—through six action lines and twenty activities, backed by a multiyear budget estimated at S/ 201.9 million.
United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration (2021–2030)
The United Nations General Assembly proclaims the period 2021–2030 as the Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, aiming to scale up global efforts to prevent, halt, and reverse the degradation of terrestrial and marine ecosystems. The instrument mandates UNEP and FAO to lead its implementation in collaboration with the Rio conventions and other multilateral bodies. It calls on Member States to mainstream ecosystem restoration into national policies, mobilize resources, and promote scientific research and international cooperation. The Decade establishes explicit links with the Paris Agreement, the 2030 Agenda, the post-2020 global biodiversity framework, and the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification.
