SOURCE-CHECKED

What the sources establish

1. The Hub profile reports 310,717 hectares under restoration and a 2030 restoration goal of 500,000 hectares.

   source checked · source reported · reported not independently verified — UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration — Ecosystem Restoration Hub — Towards Ending Drought Emergencies (TWENDE)

   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 Towards Ending Drought Emergencies (TWENDE) as a restoration initiative in Eleven arid and semi-arid counties in Kenya.
