This project uses analog forestry, a reforestation technique that aims to replicate the native forest with all its biodiversity. Lands that were deforested due to mining and illegal logging are recovered through tree planting, while including fruits, nuts and medicinal plants to support food security and economic development for a community in the Choco, a region of Colombia where 85% of the population lives below the poverty line. The project strengthens gender equality by creating a group of 50 women entrepreneurs from single mother headed households.
