This fact sheet from the World Resources Institute describes Assisted Natural Regeneration (ANR) as a middle-ground strategy for restoring degraded land at scale, contrasting it with waiting for native vegetation to grow or planting new trees.

• The document outlines practical methods to support nature's recovery, including protecting regenerating vegetation from fire, isolating or fencing off areas, enriching land with native species, managing cattle, and controlling ants, other insects, and invasive or exotic species.
• Successful ANR projects require a combination of motivation (creating social, environmental, and economic benefits; solving crises collaboratively; and ensuring compliance with environmental laws), enablement (starting with rural extension services, establishing sustainable value chains, fostering political will, and using public incentives), and implementation (monitoring and tracking progress).
