Driven by community action and sustainable forest management to ensure lasting climate resilience across Tanzania's Lake Zone.
Replanting tree species and restoring habitats have led to the return of various plants, animals, and insects, increasing biodiversity.
Improved vegetation cover has helped in preventing soil erosion and enhanced soil fertility, benefiting agriculture.
Restoration has improved water retention and quality, replenished local water sources, and reduced the impact of droughts.
Improved soil and water conditions have led to higher agricultural productivity and food security.
The project created jobs for local people in areas such as tree planting, maintenance, and monitoring.
Restored landscapes are attracting tourists, boosting local economies through ecotourism.
Engaging local communities in restoration activities has strengthened community bonds and fostered a sense of ownership and responsibility towards the environment.
Restoration projects through educational components have raised awareness about environmental conservation and sustainable practices.
Trees and plants absorb carbon dioxide, helping to mitigate climate change by reducing the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.
Vegetation helps regulate local temperatures and weather patterns, making the environment more stable and liveable.
Increased vegetation has improved air quality by filtering pollutants.
Green spaces contribute to mental well-being and provide areas for physical activities, improving overall health.
Our centralized nursery at Nyehunge village acts as a learning hub. Beyond growing seedlings directly, we empower local farmer groups with hands-on agronomic support to operate their own satellite nurseries.
