MAIN TARGET
We create sustainable buffer zones consisting of secondary forests, food forests and permaculture farms bordering the still existing primary forests around the area of Wane. This should lead to a stable ecosystem which then provides sources of water, a great biodiversity and aims to create a sustainable income for the local population. In order to protect the last remains of primary forest and to reestablish forest ecosystems we are implementing a concept of sustainable agriculture methods related to permaculture and agroforestry as an alternative to the established methods of destructive land exploitation.
Therefore we create three zones bordering the primary forests. The first zone consists of secondary forests. The only use is to protect the primary forests and its precious ecosystems. This zone then merges into the second zone consisting of a mix of food forests and agroforestry. This human-made ecosystem continues into the third zone, an area of sustainable agriculture that is surrounded and protected by useful trees, sugar and coconut palm trees. Besides environmental protection, the aim is to generate a sustainable income for the local population. Therefore, we also create an education center for all kinds of topics related to sustainability, ecology and conservation free to use for the whole local community. We would like to share our knowledge and give the community the opportunity to learn and earn their fair share in this globalized world, while protecting their natural resources for future generations. In this way it should be guaranteed that the forest can be protected in the long term and that there are no incentives to destroy it.
