Overview
About 65% of Africa’s farmland and 50% of the total land area in Tanzania is degraded, posing a serious problem for rural communities who directly rely on the land for their livelihood. Degraded agricultural landscapes are vulnerable to climate change effects and hence adversely affecting the adaptive capacity of rural communities. Africa countries through the Africa Forest Landscape Restoration Initiative (AFR100) plan to restore 100 million ha of land by 2030. Country’s commitments, including 5.2 million ha for Tanzania, have surpassed this target by about 30%.
Over the years, Tanzania has developed regulations, strategies and programs related to on-farm land restoration and more recently the carbon trading regulation. These policy framework documents inform plans and strategies to meet the national land restoration targets. Integrating on-farm land restoration and carbon farming with livelihood benefits is key to the successful engagement of smallholder farmers to contribute to the national agenda on landscape restoration. It is on this background that The Center for International Forestry Research and International Centre for Research in Agroforestry (CIFOR-ICRAF) is implementing a project titled “On-farm Land Restoration for Livelihood and Environmental Benefits – OREL”.
The project has three interrelated key results areas:
1) Tools and enabling conditions, 2) Tree based inputs and value chains, and Bioeconomy of biomass energy. The goal of this assignment is to analyze policies, institutions, strategies, and action plans related to land restoration and carbon farming to identify priorities, knowledge gaps and needs in supporting land restoration, carbon farming, and other environmental benefits in agricultural landscapes.
