Restoration of Ala Forest Reserve

Ala Forest Reserve, encompassing approximately 45,000 hectares, stands as one of the degraded forest reserves in South West Nigeria. Over the years, it has endured significant degradation from unsustainable logging, bushfires, overgrazing, and inadequate management practices. This project, with local communities, has undertaken the initiative to restore a portion of this degraded forest, commencing with 2,000 hectares as a starting point.
