What is landscape restoration, and what does it look like on the ground? In this second WRI "Big ideas into action" podcast we travel to Rwanda, to hear from the villagers, the entrepreneur and the woman working to educate the nation's schoolchildren about the importance of nature.
Restoration is about far more than planting trees - it's about restoring degraded landscapes, growing those trees, repairing soils and harnessing nature as a solution to development challenges. As well as hearing from Rwanda's people, we'll get some expert context from WRI's Forests Program liaison on the ground and WRI Africa's regional director.
We'll be bringing out one podcast a week for this first season of "Big ideas into action". You can also find us at www.wri.org/podcasts.
