In 2007, the African Union (AU) launched the implementation of the Great Green Wall (GGW) initiative, which aims to tackle deforestation, desertification, biodiversity loss, climate change, food insecurity and poverty in Africa’s drylands through the establishment of productive green landscapes, ultimately increasing the prosperity and resilience of the millions of people living in targeted areas. The Boosting Restoration, Income, Development, Generating Ecosystem Services (BRIDGES) Project was designed within the framework of the GGW programme and aimed to strengthen the work being done on large-scale land restoration in Eritrea, Mauritania, and the Sudan, three countries with a high level of desertification and land degradation.The project was centred around the achievement of three main results that were based on its Outputs: (i) the creation of an enabling environment and the building of capacities; (ii) the restoration of degraded lands and the implementation of sustainable land management practices; and (iii) effective knowledge management, communications and visibility.
