WeForest is a non-for-profit organisation based in both Switzerland and Belgium. They work with a wide array of international partners to plant forests, combat deforestation, and encourage reforestation through permaculture, education and conservation. Their motto is: "The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The second best time is now" (African Proverb).
They believe that in order to have a sustainable impact, the
local communities need be involved and directly benefit from the
planting activities. WeForest train locals to understand the
value of growing and protecting the diverse forests. Their projects
aim to directly empower people to operate entrepreneurially by
providing them with long term jobs and better living
conditions.
