Proyecta Rosenda

Grassroots Community-based Reforestation Oaxaca, MX

The Mixteca region, like much of the state of Oaxaca, has seen its natural habitats changed by overharvesting and the need for fuel for the last few hundred years. Many thousands of hectares of the rich, biodiverse forests of Oaxaca have been stripped completely of their trees. This project is empowering the community to work together in planting trees for the common good and the future of the region.
