▪ Restoration is conducted for various
goals.
▪ Example: If your restoration goal was
primarily focused on Products, Water
and Soil, this selection strategy could
quickly identify the need for more
integrated management (i.e., more
focus needed on biodiversity within
the project).

3. Sustainable Landscapes: Priority sub-themes
• “Mainstreaming green growth in a landscape level planning process”
• “Reduced deforestation and forest degradation through forest-based economies”,
contributingto climate change mitigation, adaptation and livelihoodof local communities (e.g.
REDD+) – Colombia, Indonesia, Ethiopia
• “Innovation through bio-economy”to meet food security and development goals in an
environmentallysustainable andsociallyinclusive manner (e.g. climate-smartagriculture) –
Food security African countries and MENA (potential pipeline project)
• “Payment for ecosystem services” by identifyingpolicy/regulatoryandmarket-based

21. Example Ethiopia
• Transformation of the agriculture and forestry sectors to achieve
Climate Resilient Green Economy (CRGE) goals
Program Overview
Impact on the
Ground• National Green Growth Strategy: supported development of Climate Resilience
Strategy focusing on the agriculture (crop and livestock) and forestry sectors
• Bonn Challenge: supported the development of the National Restoration Priority Map to
implement Ethiopia’s pledge to restore 15 million hectares of land by 2030
• Forestry and REDD+: contributed to the development of national REDD+ strategy; as a
result, the Government of Norway committed USD 80 million marking the completion of
readiness activities.
• Agriculture: supported the development of the Livestock Investment Plan. The plan will
be fed into the Livestock Master Plan to be implemented by the Government of Ethiopia,
in alignment with the country’s CRGE goals.

Bank Carbon Fund if forest based emissions are reduced
across the province

23. Example Costa Rica
• GGGI is supporting to scale up of Environmental Bank Foundation (FUNBAM),
which is expected to act as the financing entity for sustainable development across the
country (i.e. FUNBAM 2.0).
• GGGI implemented a series of South-South Cooperation knowledge sharing
activities in Costa Rica in 2015/16 on the topic of sustainable land-use management.
• GGGI developed a policy analysis report benefitted from Costa Rica’s leadership
position on PES program and lessons learned
Program
Overview
Impact on the Ground
• Aims to mobilize USD 10M by 2021 through
FUNBAM. FUNBAM 2.0 will contribute to Costa
Rica's NDC targets by channeling capital towards
agro-forestry industries, forest conservation,
ecosystem-based adaptation, etc.
• Aims to implement 5 bankable projects by 2021
through FUNBAM. FUNBAM 2.0 will contribute to
the empowerment of farmers and entrepreneurs in
green growth sectors in Costa Rica to ensure their
sustainable livelihoods and better standard of living.

24. Example Colombia
• GGGI is supporting the Government of Colombia (GoC) to receive
international financing for the Amazon Vision program
• GGGI is also supporting the Joint Declaration of Intent (DoI) between the GoC and the
Government of Norway (GoN), for which the fund will be channeled through the Inter-
American Development Bank´s (IDB) Sustainable Colombia Fund.
• In support of the above, GGGI will contribute to the development of policy recommendations
and technical design elements for Sustainable Cattle Ranching, one of GoC’s 63 policy
milestones outlined in the DoI.
Program Overview
Impact on the
Ground• In 2016, GGGI contributed to the design and launch of the Amazon Vision program.
1) A financing vehicle for the Amazon Vision program was set up, and is now in operation.
2) Financial commitments increased from USD 100 to 125 million.
• Starting 2017, GGGI will support the DoI between the GoC and GoN by contributing to:
1) Modality I – Achieving at least 50% of policy-based results
2) Modality I – Establishing enabling conditions for Sustainable Cattle Ranching
3) Modality II – The operation of a new financing vehicle (FCS)
4) Modality II – Disbursement of at least USD 10 million through the FCS
5) Modality II - Structuring of 1 bankable project to be funded by FCS

COP 12 also:
▪ Requested UNCCD bodies to:
- provide guidance for formulating national LDN targets
- facilitate the use of UNCCD indicator frameworks to monitor LDN targets
▪ Decided that affected country Parties should provide feedback on the

Neutrality = “no net loss” (at least)
Requires: balance between losses and
gains
In terms of land degradation:
Counterbalance
ongoing land degradation (loss)
with restoration of degraded
land (gain)
LDN aims to maintain or enhance the land based natural
