Can conservation 🌳 and forest rehabilitation 🌿 foster economic sustainability for local communities? The Tobago Reforestation and Watershed Rehabilitation Programme believes so! Increasing green spaces to combat carbon emissions not only benefits the environment but also promises profitable livelihoods.
When the Bagatelle/Bacolet community group proposed using bay leaf trees and other spices to create green spaces, TRWRP supported them with a successful US$20,000 grant.
