Ibi Village, where our own forest grows
The UNDO forest at Ibi Village, close to Kinshasa in Congo. We are turning dry savannah back into forest there, with acacias planted between maize and cassava. The forest is fully owned by UNDO and is planted with our local partner GI-AGRO.

Restoring forest along the Amblève
Closer to home. In the Amblève area, in the province of Liège, we are thinning spruce forest weakened by the bark beetle, together with Go Forest. In its place comes mixed forest with beech, oak, larch, maple and lime.

Growing stronger with the farmers of Ibi Village
In Ibi Village, the farmers combine acacias with cassava. This makes the soil more fertile and helps it hold together in heavy rain. With contributions from UNDO members, we buy equipment for their work.

Making honey, strengthening nature
Families in Ibi Village keep bees. They sell the honey at the local market, and the bees pollinate the plants around the forest.

Education in Ibi Village
Unrest in the region left the Ibi Village school out of use. We’re raising money to renovate it, so the children can go back.
