Sustainable Development Goals

4. Quality Education

Teaching courses

and education and community meetings are run out of the project headquarters

8. Decent work and economic growth

13 emplois créés

pour les populations locales grâce au projet

13. Climate Action

33,100 tonnes of CO2

reduced on average each year

15. Life on land

39,300 hectares

of tropical rainforests are protected from deforestation, and a biodiversity monitoring plan has been set up

The Solution

The project is planting teak trees on degraded land in the states of Tabasco, Chiapas and Campeche, in the south of the United States of Mexico. Part of the areas will be used for sustainable commercial purposes and part will be protected conservation areas to allow wildlife and biodiversity to thrive.

The Impact

The project is driving significant economic development in a sustainable way by creating new jobs for local people, training them in forest management and creating a supply chain of teak wood. As the trees grow not only do they sequester carbon dioxide, helping to mitigate global warming, by biodiversity, soil quality and water conservation are enhanced.
