ABOUT THIS PROJECT

OUR PROJECT DEVELOPMENT SERVICES

FORLIANCE played a pivotal role in the ArBolivia project by providing essential technical advice on site preparation, selecting suitable tree species, and training farmers in sustainable forest management practices. We facilitated the creation of community cooperatives to help local farmers collectively sell the timber produced, ensuring sustainable economic benefits.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

ArBolivia is an initiative by smallholder farmers in Bolivia, focused on reforesting degraded pasture and farmland with a mix of native tree species. This project aimed to upgrade degraded land to enable sustainable ecological forest management, generating significant benefits for the local population, biodiversity, and global climate.

IMPACT AND BENEFITS

The ArBolivia project promoted sustainable land use, enhanced biodiversity, and contributed to global climate change mitigation. By reforesting degraded areas and implementing sustainable practices, the project supported local economies and improved the livelihoods of smallholder farmers in Bolivia. The active participation of local farmers and the establishment of community cooperatives ensured that the project's benefits were widely shared, reinforcing its long-term success and sustainability.
