SOF Agroforestry for Climate Action Project

Tree planting is often touted as one of the most effective tools to combat the climate crisis and restore biodiversity. Trees are natural carbon capture and storage machines, but poorly planned reforestation and afforestation projects can actually increase emissions and harm ecosystems.

The SOF-SACAP is designed to increase the resilience of ecosystems, help minimize climate change effects, counteract soil and biodiversity loss and improve human well-being. From collecting seed to growing and planting seedlings, and growing food crops via sustainable agroforestry, we both directly and indirectly generate jobs and economic activity — which can have a profound impact on local economies.
