<p>Reposting Century Box Mainetti post:</p>
<p><em>We are overjoyed to announce a remarkable achievement in our journey towards sustainability and environmental regeneration. Since the launch of our partnership with the incredible NGO, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/ong-graine-de-vie/" data-attribute-index="0" data-entity-type="MINI_COMPANY">Graine de Vie NGO</a>, we have planted an astounding 36,000 trees in our nursery in Madagascar!</em><br />
<em>This significant milestone is not just a number—it represents our deep commitment to creating a greener, healthier planet. Our nursery is flourishing with a diverse mix of fruit trees, cash trees, and canopy trees, each playing a vital role in restoring ecosystems, supporting local economies, and combating climate change.</em><br />
<em>Our collaboration with Graine de Vie has enabled us to make a tangible impact, demonstrating that together, we can create a sustainable future for our planet and its people. These 36,000 trees are a testament to what we can achieve with shared vision and dedication.</em><br />
<em>As we celebrate this achievement, we remain focused on our goal of nurturing the environment and empowering communities. We&#8217;re not just planting trees; we&#8217;re growing hope, opportunity, and life.</em></p>
<p><em>Thank you to everyone who has supported this initiative. Your belief in our mission fuels our determination to push boundaries and make a difference.</em></p>
<p><em>Here&#8217;s to growing together and reaching new heights in sustainability. <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f333.png" alt="🌳" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f49a.png" alt="💚" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></em></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;In the heart of Madagascar&#8217;s Antolojanahary village, where a once deforested landscape now stands as a testament to hope and resilience. <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f333.png" alt="🌳" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> The Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation supported this Reforestation Project led by Graine de Vie. In just three years, the landscape has undergone a magnificent metamorphosis, with 32,800 trees planted, 20,000 acacia seeds sown, and 84.33 hectares reforested.</p>
<p>Beyond the numerical impact lies a narrative of community commitment. The engagement of nearly 7,600 parents and students in Antolojanahary and neighboring villages signifies a community united for environmental preservation. This successful model stands as a potential blueprint, encouraging us to explore its application in other regions for a broader positive impact.&#8221;  <a href="https://www.fpa2.org/fr/projets/reforestation-dans-et-autour-du-village-d-antolojanahary-du-p%C3%A8re-pedro-00516"><em>Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation</em></a></p>

Their inclusion in our reforestation efforts helps ensure the longevity of trees we plant to fight the effects of climate change.</p>
<p>For the seasonal reopening of the nursery in the rural commune of Mahavanona, in the DIANA region of Madagascar, teachers from CEG Mahavanona school and their students rallied up to help us achieve our goal of 10,000 seedlings in the nursery.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are thrilled to share news from our Madagascar team about a remarkable accomplishment of local community involved in mangrove forest protection.  Few years ago, Ankazomborona, a village located in the Ambilobe District, DIANA region Madagascar, engaged in a mangrove reforestation and protection project (785ha) with the support of WWF.  Today, during the 2-months shrimp season, the village supplies 10-14 tonnes of mangrove shrimp per day!!!</p>
<p>There is no question that forests and their biodiversity have many benefits to us all. Yet the direct impact they have on communities living around them is enormous.  Remote African communities rely heavily on forests for their source of sustenance for their families.  Partnering with these communities for forest protection is a win-win for us all: thanks to their active improvement the longevity of environmental projects is more secured.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Actions speak louder than words, but actions + words are a proof of results. A testimony of local farmer in Benin, with whom Graine de Vie (through our local partner CEDV) worked to restore his estate, demonstrates how we engage with local communities. Our reforestation strategy includes a strong commitment to involve local communities in restoring their natural environment and providing them with means to improve their livelihood. Our trees nurseries provide employment and a source of income. The seedlings are distributed free of charge and planted in villager’s land parcels, creating a source of food and income (fruit and cash crop trees).  Hence, our projects are well preserved and maintained long term by the communities where we are present.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This child planted his tree 3 years ago at his home and this is what it looks like today. We are grateful to all children who get involved with our activities.<br />
Sapling source: nursery site in Sambava region SAVA Madagascar.<br />
Children are a cornerstone of our future &#8211; including the well being of our planet&#8217;s forest. That&#8217;s why we put a lot of emphasis on educating children about the value of forests. We give them tree saplings to plant, they care for them and then enjoy the grown trees.<br />

<p>Reforesting, conservation and accounting for our work efforts is a big job as the sites are often in very remote and difficult to access zones. Our teams travel for days to reach them. The last trip (couple of weeks ago) took 3 days: 5-hour river crossing by motorized canoe before reaching the village of Antanandavahely. From there, 2,5 days walk on foot to reach Betsirebaka restoration plot in Masoala Park, Madagascar, where we planted on 50ha of degraded land. <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/hashtag/?keywords=conservation&amp;highlightedUpdateUrns=urn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A6925388920499142656" data-attribute-index="0">#conservation</a> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/hashtag/?keywords=reforestation&amp;highlightedUpdateUrns=urn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A6925388920499142656" data-attribute-index="1">#reforestation</a> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/hashtag/?keywords=treeplanting&amp;highlightedUpdateUrns=urn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A6925388920499142656" data-attribute-index="2">#treeplanting</a> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/hashtag/?keywords=carbonfootprint&amp;highlightedUpdateUrns=urn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A6925388920499142656" data-attribute-index="3">#carbonfootprint</a></p>
