Neues Baumpflanzprojekt in Vietnam - NIKIN CH

This project has important ecological benefits, as it promotes the restoration of a high-quality forest in a biodiversity-rich area and also encourages the participation of the local population. There are regions that have been forestless for over ten years, but there are also places where the problem has only existed for a few years. This means that both supplementary plantings and complete reforestation areas must be planned and implemented.

20 hectares of agroforestry

Together with our partner One Tree Planted, we will plant a mix of tree species that resemble the biodiversity and composition of the surrounding forests. The project will be implemented with extensive local community participation, and we will also ensure that at least 40% of project participants are female. The goal is to establish an average of 20 hectares of agroforestry in every village in the Kon Ha Nung region. The project is of global importance as it aims to help strengthen parts of the highly endangered Indo-Burma Biodiversity Hotspot.
