Reforestation against climate change
Climate change has long been omnipresent and its consequences are noticeable. Extreme weather events are occurring more and more frequently, having a major impact on the environment and local people around the world. In poorer countries in particular, crop failures due to droughts, floods or forest fires can lead to catastrophic situations and seriously endanger people's living conditions and basic supplies.
Trees can counteract this: healthy tree populations can mitigate the impact of disasters and increase both water quality and soil fertility. They also stabilize and protect biodiversity and provide refuge for animals and insects (Source: EOS , 2021).
Where we help
Climate change is becoming more and more pervasive. This makes it all the more important to start taking active measures to combat it. This is precisely why we support projects in Haiti and Ethiopia.
Why Haiti
Islands are particularly affected by extreme weather and climate changes. In Haiti, the effects of climate change are clearly visible in the weather events that threaten flora and fauna and also damage agricultural harvests. Crop failures worsen living conditions and food insecurity in the country.
Why Ethiopia
The population of Ethiopia, especially in rural areas, depends on healthy forests and their natural resources for their livelihoods. At the same time, the country's forest stocks have declined sharply in recent decades, posing major challenges for people and ecosystems (Source: Eden Reforestation Projects , 2023).

What we want to achieve
Together with our cooperation partners, we set clear and ambitious goals for each project right from the start. In this way, we want to ensure that as many people as possible are helped effectively and sustainably. This also applies to the projects in Haiti and Ethiopia.
How we work
In this project, with which we are pursuing not only a social goal but also an ecological one, we have teamed up with experts: certified national and international aid organizations with expertise in the field of climate protection. We trust them because we can understand exactly how they use the money. This way we can be sure that our help is reaching the right people.
Our selected partners in the fight for climate protection are Eden Reforestation Projects and Welthungerhilfe .
