The Global Partnership on Forest/Landscape
Restoration was launched by the UK, IUCN and
WWF at FAO COFO in 2003. The GPFLR works
to:
1. Build support for forest restoration with key
decision makers, at the local and international
level; and
2. Provide information and tools to strengthen
restoration efforts around the world.

• A methodology exists to help
develop scaling strategies at
various scales
• ROAM currently consists of
six main components:
1. Stakeholders & stock taking
2. Geospatial mapping
3. Economic analysis
4. Carbon analysis
5. Restoration Diagnostic
6. Financial analysis
2. SCALING STRATEGIES

• ROAM Results in Rwanda:
– Active national cross-sector
partnership
– Priority landscapes identified
and partnerships launched
– Two national parks
designated
– New domestic funding
window on restoration at
FONERWA
– Improved quantity, quality
and diversity of seeds at the
Tree Seed Center
