Switzerland

Reforestation World and foraus are collaborating for a unique workshop at Unternehmen Mitte in Basel.
Our topic for the evening: how does forest restoration work and how does it intersect with foreign policy?

Have you ever wondered how expensive it is to plant a tree? And where do we need to grow them, to be effective? How do we scale reforestation projects and how can national and international politics help (or hinder)? And, to top it all off, how are states working together to ensure the protection of our forests and the facilitation of reforestation projects?


We will teach you all about our first-hand experiences in planting trees, restoring forests and what governments are doing about it.

During the workshop and exchange, you will benefit from our respective expertise on reforestation projects and foreign policy, and in the best case walk away knowing what politics is doing about it and what you yourself can do to support reforestation!

The registration is free and can be done in the website of our co-organiser Foraus
