Restoring mountain ecosystems: Challenges, case studies and recommendations for implementing the UN Decade Principles for Mountain Ecosystem Restoration
Description
This publication, jointly developed by the Mountain Partnership Secretariat at FAO and UNEP, analyses several
mountain ecosystem restoration projects and recommends how the UN Decade’s Ten Principles for Ecosystem
Restoration can be applied to mountain ecosystems. Mountain restoration success stories from initiatives that have
been selected or shortlisted as the UN Decade’s World Restoration Flagships are also highlighted. As the theme of this
year’s International Mountain Day 2023 is “Restoring Mountain Ecosystems”, this publication provides an important
contribution, in addition to celebrating the Five Years of Action for the Development of Mountain Regions 2023–2027.
