Join leaders and policy makers from across Africa, scientists, representatives from corporate and finance sectors, indigenous communities, youth and women’s groups, global media, and tens of thousands around the world for the Global Landscapes Forum Accra!

Network with the people making a difference in improving lives and livelihoods. Hear updates from leaders of forest and landscape restoration initiatives on progress toward achieving the Bonn Challenge, the New York Declaration on Forests, and the AFR100 (African Forest Landscape Restoration Initiative) restoration goals. Find out about impediments to success in landscape restoration and learn about strategies to overcome these barriers.

GLF Accra, held back-to-back with the Fourth AFR100 Annual Partnership Meeting, will feature success stories and effective approaches to forest and landscape restoration. Private sector representatives will discuss progress in achieving zero-deforestation commitments and advances in governance. Experts in tenure and supply chains will discuss what is working and what must change.
