About this project

The reforestation activity of the Humbo Assisted Regeneration Project, involves the restoration of indigenous tree species in a mountainous region of South Western Ethiopia. The project zone covers approximately 2724 hectares of land and includes 5 strata. The project contributes to climate change mitigation objectives by creating Greenhouse gas (GHG) sinks through assisted natural regeneration of degraded lands. Furthermore, the project compliments the natural resource management goals of the Ethiopian Agricultural Rural Development and Forestry Coordination Office (ARDFCO), and social development goals of the Ethiopian government, and World Vision Ethiopia, the humanitarian organization implementing the project. The Humbo Assisted regeneration project has established seven community cooperative societies, which have legal ownership to 2,724 hectares of community land. These groups are managing the areas using the Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration techniques for the purposes of carbon removal, environmental benefits (biodiversity, water quality, and habitat) and income producing activities for the local population. Bylaws agreed upon at project inception form the rules for community cooperative societies to manage the project.
