   Limitation: Initiative information and metrics are self-reported on the Ecosystem Restoration Hub.

   Limitation: Hub publication does not mean UNEP monitors the implementer or independently verifies ecological outcomes.

   Limitation: 4PLANET treats reported scale and impact statements as source-reported unless independent evidence is separately linked.

2. The Ecosystem Restoration Hub publishes Large-Scale Ecosystem-Based Adaptation in the Gambia as a restoration initiative in The Gambia.
