Examples of Actvities
Reforestation and Afforestation: Planting trees and restoring forests to enhance carbon sequestration and support biodiversity.
Wetland Restoration: Activities that involve restoring natural wetlands to improve water management and support diverse ecosystems.
Soil Conservation Practices: Implementing measures to prevent soil erosion, improve soil health, and promote sustainable agriculture.
Protected Area Management: Establishing or enhancing protected areas to conserve biodiversity and maintain ecosystem services.
Sustainable Land Management: Implementing practices that enhance land productivity while preserving natural resources.
Data Collection
| Data Source and Means of Verification | Project Reports: Detailed reports documenting the activities carried out and the area of land affected. Geographic Information System (GIS) Data: Maps and spatial data showing the exact locations and extent of the interventions. Field Surveys: On-the-ground verification through site visits and surveys. |
|---|---|
| Measuring Frecuency | Data should be collected and registered whenever activities are completed. |
| Data Collection Guidance | Field Surveys and GIS Mapping: Use GIS technology and field surveys to accurately measure the area where interventions have been implemented. This may involve using GPS devices during field visits to map the areas or analysing satellite images. |
| Common Challenges | Challenge: Ensuring that the area of land affected by interventions is accurately measured, especially in remote or difficult-to-access locations.

How to report
Aggregate the total number of hectares where interventions have been implemented within the reporting period, disaggregated by the type of intervention. Report this data annually or at key project milestones.
