A diagnostic for collaborative monitoring in forest landscape restoration
Author Evans, K. & Guariguata, M.R.
Year of publication 2019
Forest landscape restoration (FLR) requires a long- term commitment from a range of stakeholders to plan the restoration initiative collaboratively and see it through successfully. This is only possible when the people involved – whether they are landholders, indigenous groups, government entities, non-governmental organizations or other crucial actors – come together to define common goals and monitor progress toward those goals. Collaborative monitoring can play a crucial role
in these processes by providing a structured way to include diverse stakeholders in FLR, generate local buy-in and catalyze social learning.
The diagnostic helps practitioners to: (1) determine whether they are ready for collaborative monitoring; (2) identify what elements need to be strengthened; and (3) assess whether existing monitoring systems are on the right track.
