Leading the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration 2021–2030: A Multi-Partner Trust Fund - Programme Document

The United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration 2021–2030 (the “UN Decade”) is designed to inspire a global movement in support of preventing, halting and reversing the degradation of ecosystems worldwide. This document proposes a five-year global Multi-Partner Trust Fund (the “5- year programme”) led by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The 5-year programme will be a financial vehicle embedded in and contributing to the wider and overarching UN Decade. It will focus on enabling activities and directing support to countries eligible for official development assistance according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's Development Assistance Committee (OECD-DAC).
