How does Plant-for-the-Planet choose tree species and ensure biodiversity?

Our team of experts selects tree species based on the specific conditions of each restoration site, using native species that are adapted to the local environment. Rather than planting a single species, we focus on restoring biodiverse forests. By combining different species with complementary characteristics, we create ecosystems that are more resilient to environmental changes such as drought or extreme weather.

Where possible, we also support natural regeneration, allowing additional species to establish over time, increasing biodiversity further. Our restoration work is guided by clear standards that help ensure ecological quality, including the use of native species and the promotion of biodiversity across all projects.
