Eden Reforestation Projects works with local people to identify lands devastated by deforestation – both legally and illegally – that the community wants to restore. Deforestation often offers income in the short-term, but the people bordering these areas soon face the consequences, from increased risk of landslides to a loss of habitat for wildlife. By investing in communities’ reforestation efforts of their own land, Eden Projects empowers local people to decent employment and ensures their commitment to protecting the forests for generations to come. The project is also committed to prioritising skill-building and employment for women and single parents.
