  • Project description
    The aim of the reforestation activities is to develop a long term sustainable foresty program to create a sustainble production of timber and firewood, thereby lowering the pressure on the existing natural forest remnants and the forests in the middel and lower parts of the Sierra Piura (respectively coffee and cacao regions). Part of the financial revenues from carbon credits (generated by the forest plantations at 3000m) will also be invested in adoptation and mitigation measures on the lower situated coffee farms (e.g. by planting shadow trees).
