IRI Colombia is the first IRI country program to launch a national issue primer on forest restoration. The primer is a manual intended for religious leaders and faith communities to be used during the UN decade on Ecosystem Restoration. It provides methodological guidelines to organize restoration activities inspired by faith and spiritual teachings. The primer, which can be found here, includes the latest information, science and data on forest restoration as well as case studies and religious teaching exercises that show in practical terms that the preservation and restoration of landscapes is achievable.
