波恩挑战是2011年发起的一项自愿全球倡议，旨在到2030年使多达3.5亿公顷的退化土地达到某种程度的恢复状态。试点森林景观恢复（FLR）工作表明，加强社区和小农的权居权对于实现森林景观恢复所期望的环境和社会福利共同目标至关重要。恢复机会评估方法（ROAM）是一种决策支持工具，已广泛用于国家和地方一级的FLR规划。虽然ROAM的结构是为了鼓励包括权属权利和治理分析，但ROAM报告实际纳入权属问题的程度没有记录。为了解决这一差距，我们报告了对非洲和拉丁美洲八个国家目前可公开获取的ROAM报告的分析结果。我们发现ROAM报告表面上覆盖了权属和治理考虑。我们建议设计权属诊断要素，以促进更有力的权属和土地治理分析，以补充ROAM和其他FLR规划方法。我们建议采用一种权利增强的FLR方法，以便充分利用强大和安全的权属权利为土地所有者提供的动力，使其参与森林恢复设计和实践。虽然是在FLR的背景下制定的，但拟议的权属诊断对于其他涉及权属权利和安全的土地使用倡议应具有广泛的效用。
The Bonn Challenge, a voluntary global initiative launched in 2011, aims to bring up to 350 million hectares of degraded land into some level of restorative state by 2030. Pilot forest landscape restoration (FLR) efforts indicate that enhancing community and smallholder tenure rights is critical for achieving FLR’s desired joint environmental and social well-being objectives. The Restoration Opportunities Assessment Methodology (ROAM) is a decision support tool that has become widely used in national and subnational FLR planning. Although ROAM is structured so as to encourage inclusion of tenure rights and governance analyses, the extent to which ROAM reports actually incorporate tenure issues is undocumented. To address this gap, we report the results of an analysis of the currently publicly accessible ROAM reports from eight countries in Africa and Latin America. We found that the ROAM reports superficially covered tenure and governance considerations. We recommend design elements for a tenure diagnostic that should facilitate more robust tenure and land governance analyses – to complement ROAM and other FLR planning approaches. We suggest the adoption of a rights-enhanced FLR approach so as to capitalize on the motivating force that strong and secure tenure rights provide for landholders to engage in forest restoration design and practice. Although developed in the context of FLR, the proposed tenure diagnostic should have broad utility for other land use initiatives where tenure rights and security are at stake.
