01 The challenge

Restoration that families want to keep

A planting only works for the climate if the plants survive and stay. The project had to give families a clear reason to keep the bamboo growing for 30 years.

02 The approach

The largest revenue share to families

The project groups 4,500 hectares under one design, with bamboo planted on 834 hectares. A total of 462 families receive 70% of the revenue, so they have a stake in the result.
