The Abrolhos land and seascape is a global forest restoration priority area due to the optimization of carbon sequestration potential, biodiversity gains and lower risks of fires, and will be the first large-scale restoration effort to maximize climate, biodiversity and community benefits. This project will play an instrumental role in connecting protected areas, where most of the remaining forest remnants lie.

Tree Canada is collaborating with the Priceless Planet Coalition, Cariboo Carbon Solutions and local communities to complete a large-scale reforestation project in the Thompson-Nicola River Watershed located in the province of British Columbia. In 2021, British Columbia experienced some of its worst natural disasters in recorded history. The Lytton Creek Wildfire made headlines throughout the world after record-breaking heat and a spark resulted in a fire that destroyed the town of Lytton in minutes. This fire spread east and burned an extensive portion of the Nicola Valley Watershed. Near the fire’s southern boundary, it spread across the Nicola Valley and burned almost the entire western half of the Nicola Watershed, where several Indigenous communities live.  

This reforestation site is located within the 2021 Lytton Creek Wildfire affected area that burned at a high severity, killing nearly 100% of the trees.  This area is located within the Nicola Valley, a sub-watershed of the Thompson River in British Columbia.

Conservation International China is partnering with the Yunnan Green Environment Development Foundation to restore temperate forests in the mountains of Yuxi, Yunnan, which were destroyed by wildlife in 2023. 

Prior to the fire, the forests were all non-commercial trees planted in the 1980s on state-owned and collective-owned lands, with Yunnan Pine (Pinus yunnanensis) as the dominant species. The project aims to re-establish coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forests, to increase biodiversity and create a more fire-resistant forest, compared to the single-species Yunnan pine forests. This project could serve as a model for best practices and innovation for forest management in Southwest China.

Conservation International in a joint effort with indigenous communities will bring 1000 hectares under restoration, that has suffered a strong colonization process with extensive livestock farming, resulting in deforestation and land degradation. Ecological restoration efforts in environmentally strategic areas of the Arhuaca indigenous community in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, aims to enhance adaptation and resilience capacity to climate change, restore critical ecosystems to variety of species of fauna and flora, reduce forest fragmentation by gradually re-establishing environmental conditions of forest remnants, alterations in biological interactions, reduce loss in the number and composition of species, functional types and landscape units.

The project will reinforce the fragmentated forests that protect the local rivers, including the Kasai, which marks the frontier with the large Congo Basin rainforest. The project area is characterized by a tropical and humid climate with a nine-month rainy season (from September to May). The latter is the best time for tree planting.

Acción Andina's larger vision is to restore and protect one million hectares of high Andean forest ecosystems across all seven Andean countries over the next two decades for high impact water security.  Through their Priceless Planet Coalition project they are a step closer to achieving that goal, as they will be restoring 360 hectares across Peru and Ecuador.

This project aims to connect two protected areas by planting trees to increase the forest cover in the existing corridor. The tropical trees will provide shelter and sustenance to the elephants in the area. This work will be done in conjunction with local communities, who will be trained to plant and maintain the trees.

ATREE is partnering with several organisations in India to restore degraded forest ecosystems from the high ranges of the Himalayas to the mangroves in the coastal areas. Launching fall of 2024, this is part of a larger initiative that includes parts of India, Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh which is part of the Eastern Himalaya. ATREE is one of the founding implementing partners working in the Eastern Himalaya.

The project will implement restoration strategies and monitor saplings, maintaining their survival. The project will also declare Community Conserved Areas owned and managed by legally recognised customary institutions like the Village Councils in Nagaland. It will strengthen Joint Forest Management Committees for Protected Areas and Reserve Forests in North Bengal and explore other effective conservation measures as a tool for sustaining restoration.

The Green Belt Movement is partnering with World Resources Institute to restore and rehabilitate degraded lands in the Makuli-Nzauilandscape, Kenya. This area is the food basket of Makuenicounty, and if it is not restored and protected, the entire county stands to suffer catastrophic impacts in terms of food security, water security, household incomes, and habitat loss.

The flagship landscape for restoration is neighboring the Lake Alaotra and contiguous to the Zahamena and Corridor Ankeniheny-Zahamena protected areas. There is no restoration programme in Madagascar at this scale that combines diverse cost-effective restoration strategies backed by local knowledge and science. Implementation of this flagship project led by local stakeholders will contribute to climate mitigation and adaptation, benefit the local economy and biodiversity.

The project aims to restore degraded areas and safeguard conservation areas in community-managed areas within Kaeng Krachan National Park by planting trees and applying forest and landscape restoration principles.

The project will focus on working closely with Indigenous people and local communities to facilitate connections to key policy makers, provide access to critical technology and sustainability training, and highlight the expertise and experience of Indigenous peoples and local communities — so they can better protect their territories and secure the benefits that these lands provide to all of humanity.
