Abstract

Restoration is fundamentally a hopeful intervention that can meaningfully improve the condition of human‐degraded and destroyed ecosystems. Both restoration science and practice have gained special attention given the recently declared UN Decade of Ecosystem Restoration. Here, we present an overview of the historical development of forest restoration on the Brazilian Atlantic Forest with an emphasis in methodological and technical assumptions. We gathered information from primary and secondary studies to show how forest restoration concepts and strategies evolved over the years. Given the importance of reviews for informing management and policy as well as research, our study provides a summarized information on forest restoration approaches or practices that can help practitioners and non‐initiated to understand how this field evolved in Brazil and how lessons learned can be useful for forest restoration in other countries.
