About this project

Romeo KPODJI from Greening Africa Together/Alle Hand in Hand, e.V. is responsible for this project
According to the Casamance's conflict, we notice an excessive cutting of trees and bushfires,
an important reforestation process underway and the lack of sustainable energy source for cooking. 
The populations needs are 
  • forest resources preservation, 
  • maximization of plant yield, 
  • sustainable fuel for cooking, 
  • women's empowerment, 
  • economic growth.
Our project will aim 
  • to establish an improved plant monitoring system for an optimal reforestation, 
  • To provide sustainable fuel for cooking
  • To train on the food processing activities to valorize trees products
  • To increase economic growth
At the end we expect to have 
  • A responsible village committee is set up and operational ;
  • Vegetation cover becomes more important ; 
  • A mapping of reforested areas is established ;
  • Crop monitoring is possible remotely ;
  • Biogas and briquettes are effectively functioning in the villages ;
  • Fruits generate  economic incomes by selling, transforming.
In summary, the project will be about the forest reforestation. For that, we will set up a nursery garden of many trees especially edible trees. We will plant those trees with local population, sensitize the population on environment protection and trees caring. We will organize training on fruits processing, beekeeping on trees, and on how trees could bring an incomes generating activities. Those activities will help to improve the conditions living of the local population through the ecosystems services improving.
