Africa’s Great Green Wall for the Sahara and the Sahel Initiative, led by the African Union Commission, is a bold vision to restore 100 million hectares of degraded land across the continent by 2030. 1t.org and UpLink have launched the Trillion Trees Challenge for the Sahel & the Great Green Wall to find and help accelerate successful examples of landscape restoration that contribute to the vision of the Great Green Wall Initiative and deliver benefits to people and environment of the Sahel. This high-profile event on World Day to Combat Desertification will spotlight leading ecopreneurs identified through the Challenge, and showcase how land restoration and value chain models can help sustain local livelihoods, foster food security, combat desertification and create economic opportunities.
