The TEDxUNYP Forest

Let's all be part of an optimistic climate crisis story!

Once upon a time in Ghana, there lived Mohammed. Growing up in a region at the very forefront of the climate crisis, he decided that it's time to act. Together with the wonderful people of the Banpewa community, they set on a mission to bring back their precious forests. Being good friends with Šimon, a speaker at TEDxUNYP 2023, they are now inviting you, the audience – join us and make a positive impact!

Plant-for-Ghana – Ghana

Plant-for-Ghana is a pioneer reforestation project that aims to restore 10 million trees of a variety of local tree species in the Northern Savannah Ecological Zone of Ghana. Mixing restoration with agroforestry, it creates green jobs in rural areas, raises awareness on biodiversity and empowers families and women groups to get back on their feet.

It's not just about trees.

Plant-for-Ghana is a community-driven project. It aims for both environmental and socio-economic impact.

That means:
• sustainable employment
• income opportunities for women
• high variety of native tree species
• sustainable forest products like honey, cashews or mangos
• potential to bring back animals like monkeys, antelopes or elephants
