Description/notes
Plant-for-Ghana is a hybrid restoration agroforestry project initiated by Plant-for-the-Planet Ghana - a national affiliate of Plant-for-the-Planet Foundation. Sustainable reforestation is the way we can restore the lost forest in the Northern Savannah Ecological Zone of Ghana and reach the overarching goal to plant a trillion trees. This hybrid project combines two different approaches: planting of native species and planting of agroforestry species in mixed stands. The objective of Plant-for-the-Planet Ghana is to reforest this by planting 10,000,000 in the Savannah Ecological Zone of Ghana to help absorb the carbon emissions and also create ecosystems and green jobs
