- Output 1: Ingredients of success and gaps in knowledge.
This analysis results from critical review of literature and experience, globally and in five countries and is informed by local knowledge. Available in draft after 12 months and as a final output after 18 months - Output 2: Tools for targeting up-scaling
These are simple to use tools for use by grassroots organisations that help them to select appropriate land restoration options and match options to sites and farmer circumstances within four up-scaling domains in Ethiopia, Kenya, Mali and Niger. Available in pilot form after 24 months and then iteratively revised within each community of practice. - Output 3: Enhanced understanding about what land restoration approaches work, by how much, where and for whom.
Reports will be available for each of five national scaling domains (Ethiopia, Kenya, Mali, Niger and Tanzania) after 26 months and generally for out-scaling domains within sub- Saharan Africa after 36 months. - Output 4: Tools for targeting out-scaling
These are simple to use tools for use by grassroots organisations that help them to select appropriate land restoration options and match options to sites and farmer circumstances within five up-scaling domains developed from analysis of options by context testing in Ethiopia, Kenya, Mali, Niger and Tanzania. Available in pilot form after 33 months and then iteratively revised within each community of practice. - Output 5: Nested communities of practice with refined tools, methods and guidelines for taking land restoration to scale.
