Reforest’Action is partnering with the NGO Inter Aide to plant 300,000 trees over three years to form hedgerows in several villages of the Lilongwe district, center of the country. In this rural area where human activities have severely degraded the forest, agroecosystems must be restored to ensure the subsistence of local communities. 

This approach will increase the energy autonomy and the standard of living of the inhabitants of the reforested areas. The trees planted will have environmental benefits: they will prevent soil erosion, restore their fertility and their ecosystem functions.

PARTNERSHIP_FOR_THE_GOALS

Preservation of local biodiversity by providing suitable habitats and resources.

Supports human well-being, by providing resources, income, education, empowerment, and supporting culture and spirituality.

Influences the quality and integrity of the soil-water system, and the cycling of water and nutrients.

Contributes to the mitigation of the greenhouse effect and influences precipitation patterns and the local microclimate.

In Malawi, deforestation is responsible for the loss of approximately 33,000 hectares of forest every year. In this country where subsistence farming is the norm, the forest cover is disappearing to make way for crops. In addition, logging practices in order to meet the population’s energy needs, illegal wood trafficking, coupled with the effects of global warming, are endangering the forest as well as people’s resilience. Yet, trees are a precious and necessary resource for the population, whose density continues to grow.

Founded in 1980, Inter Aide's main objective is to design, launch and monitor concrete development aid programmes in six African countries and in Haiti. Since 1997, the organisation has been training rural communities in Malawi to create tree nurseries and plant trees.

For our aftermarket activities, we are acting at Valeo on our own values while encouraging our business partners to follow environmental initiatives too: this is what “I Care For The Planet’” is all about.
