Projektbeschreibung

Nepal is a diverse nation with magnificent snow-capped mountains to the north and hot tropical planes to the south and contains dramatic and varied landscapes and spectacular wildlife. Chitwan National Park alone hosts more than 700 species of wildlife including leopards and the elusive Bengal tiger. It is also home to an array of cultures united by their close relationship with nature that have remained insulated from much of the socioeconomic development enjoyed in urban regions yet subject to far greater environmental hazards, perpetuating high levels of inequality.

Eden began its Nepal Reforestation Project in 2015 to help improve local livelihoods and restore forests in areas of critical importance. The planting sites are located in upland areas on steeper terrain located around Community Forests in the mountainous Nawalparasi District, along lowland alluvial plains in the Jhapa, Rautahat, and Morang Districts, and around Chitwan National Park as a means of developing a buffer zone around this national biodiversity treasure.
