Forests for the Future – New Forests for Africa

16 - 17 Mar 2016, Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City Accra Ghana

Working conference in March 2016 in Ghana

The successful creation of new forests requires close, long-term commitment and cooperation between all parties. It is for this reason that we have set up a working conference on March 16 and 17, 2016 in Accra, Ghana. We believe that it is time for hands on to remove barriers and dramatically boost reforestation.

The challenge of reforestation goes far beyond simply planting trees. Its impact on the planet and its inhabitants is far greater. The far-reaching implications of the topic under discussion will be reflected in the conference program and a number of best practices in reforestation will be shown and discussed. We are proud to announce that one of our keynote speakers will be the Honorable Mr. Kofi Annan, Chairman of the Kofi Annan Foundation.

Presentations will be held from all parties involved in reforestation, from local landowners, to government officials and NGO’s, and from plantation companies to financial institutions. In addition best practices of successful reforestation projects will be presented
