Située au cœur de la Dordogne, la forêt de Saint-Geyrac a sévèrement été touchée par la tempête de 1999, qui a endommagé plus de 150 hectares de forêt. Sur ces sols peu profonds, filtrants et exposés sud, les pins sont presque la seule essence adaptée à ces conditions difficiles. Les peuplements concernés par ces travaux sont donc en majorité des pins maritimes, mais comportent également des essences feuillues dans les zones plus riches. L’objectif de ce projet est de reconstituer cette forêt de façon naturelle, en testant plusieurs modalités de régénération. Ainsi, le propriétaire pourra dans le futur orienter sa gestion de façon plus efficace, et aboutira plus facilement à une forêt irrégulière comme il le souhaite. Ce projet a pour vocation de privilégier les essences feuillues lorsqu’elles sont présentes, et de les compléter lorsqu'elles sont insuffisantes. A terme, cette forêt gagnera en multifonctionnalité et en résilience, sans avoir eu recours ici à la coupe rase-reboisement.

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

Preservation of local biodiversity by providing suitable habitats and resources.

This project is located in the Périgord Blanc Sud natural region in the centre of the Dordogne. The name comes from the white colour of the soil, due to the presence of limestone. With 43% of its surface area covered by woodland, compared with a national average of 31%, the Dordogne ranks 16th among France's most wooded départements.

Located in the heart of the Dordogne, the Saint-Geyrac forest was severely affected by the storm of 1999, which damaged more than 150 hectares of forest. On these shallow, filtering, south-facing soils, pines are almost the only species adapted to these difficult conditions. The stands concerned by this work are therefore mainly maritime pines, but also include deciduous species in richer areas. The aim of this project is to restore this forest naturally, by testing several regeneration methods. In this way, the owner will be able to direct his management more effectively in the future, and will find it easier to achieve the kind of irregular forest he wants. The aim of this project is to give priority to deciduous species where they are present, and to supplement them where they are insufficient. Ultimately, the forest will become more multifunctional and resilient, without having to resort to clear-cutting and reforestation.

Plot farming in Peru represents the first cause of deforestation, being practiced both by small family farmers and by national and international agribusinesses. Northwest of the country, in the heart of the Peruvian Amazon, most of the land of the Lamas, San Martín and El Dorado provinces have been converted into crops and pastures, at the cost of the primary forest that used to take root in the area. Local farmers have been abandoning their plots of land whose overexploited soil had lost fertility. The abandoned farmlands are now largely covered by an invasive fern species. These degraded areas are also particularly prone to fires, which are very common in the Amazon during the summer. Like a vicious circle, these phenomena worsen the degradation of the already weakened soils and decrease water resources.

The Center for Innovation and Sustainable Management (CIGDES) is a Peruvian NGO founded in 2020\. On the spot, the organization favors the development of agroforestry projects based on the introduction of non-timber and fruit indigenous tree species. Since its creation, the CIGDES has managed to plant over 10 million trees. The NGO works hand in hand with several national and international actors involved in the restoration of forests and the implementation of agroforestry systems such as the US AID.

Reforest'Action is partnering with the CIGDES to support small landowners in implementing agroforestry systems. The project, led by the Centro De Innovación Y Gestión Para El Desarrollo Sostenible (CIGDES) in the field, is being carried out simultaneously in three Peruvian provinces: Lamas, San Martín and El Dorado. Started in 2021, it will last for three years. The work involves installing agroforestry systems on abandoned agricultural plots, alongside producers and indigenous communities. The development of agroforestry will result in the restoration of former forests, including soil conditions, while generating additional socio-economic benefits.

Reforest'Action is partnering with the High Atlas Foundation in collaboration with the Moroccan Department of Water and Forests to contribute to the resilience of the ecosystems as well as the economic development of the local populations. 

To do this, 300,000 trees are planted over two years. This approach will help meet
the objectives set by the Moroccan Ministry of Agriculture, which plans to plant one billion trees to alleviate the systemic poverty that plagues Moroccan rural communities. The planting of fruit trees will revitalize agroecosystems and further develop fruit production by planting species native to the region.

In Morocco, climate change and the hazards it causes, such as droughts, considerably weaken the agroecosystems in the north-western part of the country. In this region known for its arboriculture, but dominated by cereal farming, agricultural practices also contribute to deteriorating soils and polluting ecosystems. Families of small-scale producers are particularly vulnerable on the social and economic level. Indeed, illiteracy and the lack of access to communication technologies contribute to the vulnerability of the inhabitants of this mountainous area. Today, the major challenge is to restore Taza's agroecosystems, in order to mitigate the effects of climate change and empower farmers.

The High Atlas Foundation is a Moroccan association and an American NGO, founded in 2000 by former Peace Corps volunteers committed to sustainable development. HAF supports Moroccan communities in implementing development initiatives that promote organic agriculture, women's autonomy, education, youth integration, and population health. Since 2011, the association has acquired the status of consultant in the United Nations Economic and Social Council. HAF has planted nearly 4 million fruit trees in 39 provinces of Morocco, benefiting 15,000 producer families. 

In the province of Taza, Reforest'Action is partnering with the High Atlas Foundation to involve women's communities in the development of agroforestry.  The project, carried out in collaboration with the Moroccan Department of Water and Forests, is designed to produce and distribute 400,000 fruit trees to 3,000 local farmers over two years. Through the development of agroforestry, the project aims to support the transition from a monospecific cereal crop to a surplus of organic fruits. This approach will help meet the objectives set by the Moroccan Ministry of Agriculture, which plans to plant one billion trees to alleviate the systemic poverty that plagues Moroccan rural communities. A double impact, both environmental and socio-economic, is expected from this regenerative project, which allows to improve the living conditions of local communities through the sale of fruits from the trees, a source of additional income.

Reforest’Action is joining forces with C4 EcoSolutions and AfriCarbon, two South African companies into the protected reserves of Kuzuko and Koedoeskloof. The goal is to restore these ecosystems by planting more than 500,000 seeds of Spekboom, a local species which is essential to the ecological functioning of the region. The project will develop a new sustainable grazing management system to improve the carrying capacity of livestock without degrading the environment. Numerous benefits will also be generated: the return of biodiversity, including a population of elephants, rainwater infiltration improvement, restoration of arable land and improve the living conditions of the local populations.

Within the Eastern Cape, in South Africa, land desertification is due to the increasing pressure of livestock on pastureland. Nowadays, the increasing scarcity of vegetation cover and the degradation of local farmers’ land and surrounding reserves are causing many negative environmental effects, such as the drying up of water resources, loss of biodiversity and soil erosion. The plantation areas are made up of former degraded pastures, and are located close to areas that have been protected for several decades.

The project is led in the field by Anthony Mills, a geochemist and expert in environmental development projects. He is the founder of two companies, AfriCarbon in 2009 and C4 EcoSolutions in 2015, which ensure the technical and operational deployment of the project.
