Our activities

We organise events for the broader public, as a way to increase awareness and motivate for action, and to present latest information on key topics.

These events also link with other activities that we promote with our partners, to enable direct engagement.

In addition, we select, present and support an array of organisations around the world, engaged in forest restoration and promotion of sustainable livelihoods.
