Description/notes
Tree Adoption Uganda (TAU) is a youth-centric, environmental centered NGO founded in 2013 and is powered by the vision of creating communities where people and nature flourish. Through landscape restoration activities like growing trees and agroforestry, we build resilience for smallholder farmers against the changing climate while economically empowering unemployed young people in Uganda's rural communities through environmental education and training on setting up and managing indigenous tree nurseries and tree farms.
