Cambodia is facing growing environmental challenges.
Deforestation, land degradation, forest fires, and climate change are threatening livelihoods, biodiversity, and the future of rural communities.
In Preah Vihear, Kampong Thom, Ratanakiri, Mondulkiri, Kratie, Koh Kong, Kampong Speu, and Kampot, forests are disappearing at alarming rates due to:
Illegal logging
Agricultural expansion
Infrastructure development
Climate-related droughts and floods
Lack of community-based forest protection
Forests are not just trees—they are life systems.
They protect water sources.
They prevent floods and soil erosion.
They support wildlife and biodiversity.
They provide income and food for local families.
When forests disappear, communities suffer first.
This campaign exists to restore forests, plant trees, and empower communities to protect their natural environment—ensuring a healthier, greener future for Cambodia.
⭐ WHAT THIS CAMPAIGN PROVIDES
🌳 1. Large-Scale Tree Planting
Native tree species planting
Fruit trees for community use
Mangrove and coastal trees (Koh Kong & Kampot)
Each tree contributes to carbon absorption and ecosystem restoration.
🌱 2. Forest Restoration & Protection
Reforestation of degraded land
Fire prevention activities
Community forest patrol support
Protecting existing forests is as important as planting new ones.
👨👩👧👦 3. Community Participation & Education
Environmental awareness workshops
Youth and school tree-planting activities
Training on sustainable land use
Local communities are the strongest protectors of forests.
💧 4. Water & Soil Conservation
Tree planting along rivers and watersheds
Erosion control in vulnerable areas
Protection of water catchment zones
Healthy forests mean clean water.
🌍 5. Climate Change Mitigation
Carbon sequestration through reforestation
Climate-resilient landscapes
Long-term ecosystem sustainability
Trees are one of the most effective natural climate solutions.
⭐ WHY THESE 8 PROVINCES?
These provinces represent Cambodia’s most ecologically important and vulnerable regions:
Ratanakiri & Mondulkiri – Indigenous forests & biodiversity
