Project Description
This project is designed to promote good regenerative practices by combining trees and other foods on the same field, thus addressing climate change-related issues such as land degradation, biodiversity and others.
Our project will help to stabilize the soil, restore biodiversity and soil quality, and increase agricultural production while planting new species on the land, where there are trees that have become older and unproductive and whose growth has been disrupted by the agricultural activities practiced there .
In addition, this project will also enable the development of non-timber forest products such as bees keeping, while teaching local communities reforestation practices on their agricultural and non-agricultural land.
Stakeholders and local communities involved in the project
The local communities are involved in preparing the nurseries, planting the trees and monitoring the restored land.
We work with local communities, especially young people and women form rural areas where our projects based.
