Our Vision: Decolonizing Society, Land and Forest

We emphasize the need to address historical injustices and ongoing effects of colonialism on local and indigenous communities and their ecosystems. This vision supports recognizing local and indigenous rights to land and resources, promoting stewardship that honors traditional knowledge and cultural ties. It aims to dismantle oppressive systems that marginalize these voices, ensuring equitable access to land and forest resources while fostering sustainable practices to restore ecosystems and enhance biodiversity.
