Forest Protection Trust
What We Do
A forest is an area of land dominated by trees. Hundreds of definitions of forest are used throughout the world, incorporating factors such as tree density, tree height, land use, legal standing, and ecological function. The United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) defines a forest as, “Land spanning more than 0.5 hectares with trees higher than 5 meters and a canopy cover of more than 10 percent, or trees able to reach these thresholds in situ.
Our Mission
At Vaarahi Trust, our Forest Protection Trust initiative is dedicated to the conservation and restoration of forest ecosystems. We recognize the critical importance of forests in maintaining ecological balance, supporting biodiversity, and combating climate change. Our efforts focus on preserving existing forests, restoring degraded lands, and promoting sustainable forestry practices.
