Synopsis (short abstract) The UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration provides a unique opportunity to transform food, fibre and feed production systems to the needs of the 21st century, and to eradicate poverty, hunger and malnutrition. This report presents the case for why we all must throw our weight behind a global restoration effort. Drawing on the latest scientific evidence, it explains the crucial role played by ecosystems from forests and farmland to rivers and oceans, and charts the losses that result from our poor stewardship of the planet. The UN Decade runs from 2021 through 2030 and is led by the United Nations Environment Programme and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.

The Central Asian countries (Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan) share ecologically important river and wetland systems, extensive grasslands, semi-deserts, and high mountain ranges which support some of the most unique species and habitats on earth. These ecosystems also provide essential services to people, including water, food and livelihoods, and are critical for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
