*Takahisa Furuichi^1,2 (1.Forestry and Forest Products Research Institute, 2.University of the Sunshine Coast)

Keywords:land degradation, land restoration, nature-based solutions

This poster reviews published satellite-based analyses on recent distribution of degraded lands in the global context and discusses the rationality of the data from a perspective from the field-level investigation. Restoration strategies in different environmental and social settings are introduced. Geo-ecological approaches to restore productive, sustainable environment under mainstreaming of nature-based solutions (NbS) are outlined and their potential to various local backgrounds are discussed.
