Plant 50,000 Native Trees for Refugees in Uganda
Organization information
Wild Forests and Fauna
Location: Carnation, United States of America
Summary
Nearly 1,000,000 South Sudanese refugees have crossed into Northern Uganda where local farmers are already struggling to feed their families due to changing weather patterns. WildFF's project in Palorinya refugee settlement will combat this issue by planting native trees for food and firewood and providing high-efficiency cookstoves. This combined approach improves refugee life quality, combats climate change, and reduces pressure on local forests being rapidly deforested for resources.
