Plant in Burundi
WHY PLANT TREES IN BURUNDI?
HIGH RATE OF DEFORESTATION
Burundi, one of the most densely populated countries in Africa, has experienced significant deforestation due to agricultural expansion, fuelwood and charcoal production, and urbanization. It is estimated that more than 40% of Burundi’s forests have been lost in recent decades.
LOSS OF BIODIVERSITY
Deforestation in Burundi has led to the loss of critical wildlife habitats, threatening the country’s biodiversity, which includes several endemic species.
SOIL EROSION AND LAND DEGRADATION
The loss of forest cover has exacerbated soil erosion and land degradation, which is particularly problematic in a country where the majority of the population depends on agriculture.
