The primary objective of this assignment is to develop a system that identifies the optimal locations for ecosystem services and determines which services to prioritize to transition to more sustainable land management practices in Uganda. The firm will analyze historical land uses; and the drivers behind these changes; the expected changes in existing and emerging areas of land use change and what this means for restoration efforts. Looking out to the future; the firm will also assess what are the conditions required for effective restoration and achieving the government’s target for forest cover in Vision 2040 (i.e.; 24% of land area under forests); and using the framework of “protect; regenerate/restore; and afforest” determine areas for restoration and present a prioritization that is based on institutional and economic feasibility.The analysis will draw on the work done for the country climate and development report that assessed potential land use changes out to 2050 that aligned with the government’s growth aspirations; agricultural suitability and ecosystem opportunities; and identify areas suitable for restoration based on the above mentioned approach. In addition; the firm will provide inputs into what are the financing requirements (temporal flow) for the restoration activity to inform the alignment between the providers of the service and the payment scheme for rewarding the restoration of the ecosystem services
