Tree Aid
TREE AID is an international development organisation which focuses on unlocking the potential of trees to reduce poverty and protect the environment in Africa. It is a registered charity in the UK. TREE AID has offices in Bristol, UK, in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, in Mali, in Ethiopia and in Ghana. It currently has programmes running in Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Ghana, Mali and Niger.
TREE AID has planted 14 million trees across the drylands of Africa with hundreds of thousands more trees being naturally regenerated through improvements in natural resource management.
Over 1,000,000 villagers have directly benefitted from TREE AID's work, meaning better health, education and life chances.
TREE AID has influenced a change in national forestry policy in Burkina Faso, giving control of forests to local communities.
