with Salesforce

Join the movement
Support the Restore Africa Programme and join us in reversing land degradation, combat extreme poverty, and mitigate the impacts of climate change.
We have joined forces
A collaborative effort
The Restore Africa programme has been designed for inclusive and collaborative implementation in partnership with the governments of participating countries, members of the Global EverGreening Alliance, and grassroots organisations.
The Global EverGreening Alliance and its members have joined forces in the biggest small-scale farmer-driven land restoration project: Restore Africa. This program will accelerate and massively scale up the adoption of Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR) and other complementary Evergreening practices in Tanzania, Uganda, Malawi, Zambia, Kenya and Ethiopia by building on existing successful projects and proven-effective approaches.
Through this project, we will also significantly contribute to the African Forest Landscape Restoration Initiative, which aims to bring at least 100 million hectares of degraded land under restoration by 2030.
THE PROBLEM
Our people and our planet are struggling.
With rising temperatures, unpredictable rainfall, increasing desertification and biodiversity loss, climate change is already affecting African ecosystems – and the rural communities that depend on them.
