Indicators and scalability of successful land restoration initiatives at the watershed scale

The global landscape forum (GLF) is organized a platform for scientists and organization  to discuss about our land across various discipline. It is for hydrologist, for geomorphologist, for soil scientists, for biologist, for endogenous people, for everyone. While various forums and platforms are available out there, GLF is aimed to integrate disciplines related to land resources (water, soil, biodiversity, stakeholders etc). I had a chance to participate during this year GLF (GLF 2017), in Bonn.   WLE, CIAT and IWMI organized one session "Indicators and scalability of successful land restoration initiatives at the watershed scale". The following is verbatim from GLF website about our session.

"Healthy ecosystems are the backbone of healthy food systems and that fact must sit at the heart of agricultural development. Focusing in on the role of water – specifically watershed and river basin health – the session will call on real-world examples of land restoration that have incorporated the objective of ecosystem management. By articulating the obstacles and opportunities presented by balancing the interests of farmers, fish, industry, and the broader environment, the session will work to identify more effective and inclusive better watershed management."

And below is recorded video of the session :








I think, the following session can also be highly related to our session.
