65% of Africa’s land is affected by degradation. The consequence? 3% of GDP lost every year!​

​But African #RestorationChampions have proven that there is a better way to sustain economic growth while helping local leaders restore their land!​

Lucky to have had these two brilliant minds as teacher and mentor for the past 4 days!
They say, One of the greatest values of mentors is the ability to see ahead what others cannot see and to help them navigate a course to their destination.

By 2050 land degradation & climate change could reduce global crop yields by 10%. If we are to achieve the #GlobalGoals, it is vital that we invest in our forests and landscapes. #GLFNairobi2018 https://t.co/KdYoVBaGig
