The project proposes to plant 32
millions trees in the Inquisivi Province, which is located in
the Andean valleys of La Paz Department, Bolivia. The A&R
project will be implemented by
establishing four central
nurseries with an annual production capacity of 1 million
seedlings
whereof will be distributed to 5.000 peasant families.
The project will contribute to
alleviate greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions, to provide lumber for industrial purposes, and
educate people on sustainable forest and agricultural
management.
