  • Project description
    The forestry project “Reforestation with Rubber on degraded lands of Colombia” consists of the planting of Hevea brasiliensis on 10.000 hectares, promoting sustainable development through reforestation and forest restoration activities. It also supports the creation of value-added and exports for the rubber and wood products value chains, enhances and conserves biodiversity in the area, provides carbon sequestration for the mitigation of global warming, and encourages the commercialization of timber and non-timber products from the plantations (sale of wood and latex).
