Cross-scale interdependencies require attention in forest restoration

Export citation

A governance perspective that connects actors at multiple levels in forest restoration is largely missing and much needed to expedite the translation of national restoration targets into long-lasting outcomes. An explicit focus on the interactions across governance levels, and how these influence ecological processes at different spatial levels, can overcome the general tendency to focus on forest restoration either from the top-down or bottom-up and help improve the quality of forest restoration.
