ACCOMPANYING THE PRIVATE SECTOR IN REFORESTATION

On April 27th, Center for Nature Conservation and Development (CCD) collaborated with SMEC Vietnam Joint Stock Company, Pu Luong Nature Reserve, and the local community to carry out the “saplings thrive – forests arise” – an activity within the reforestation, ecosystem restoration  program which CCD is promoting and accompanying the private sector. During the “saplings thrive – forests arise” in Pu Luong Nature Reserve, CCD, SMEC, and Pu Luong planted indigenous tree species in degraded forest areas in need of restoration within the Reserve. The activity supports the stabilization and enhancing the supply capacity of ecosystem services in Pu Luong forest and significantly benefits the environment and local community.

As part of the Awareness and Public responsibility Enhancement program in biodiversity, preventing forest degradation and loss in Vietnam initiated by CCD, “saplings thrive – forests arise” not only has direct and sustainable benefits to the environment but also helps the private sector fulfill their social/environmental responsibility in a effective and meaningful way.

Through its works and vision, CCD will always accompany partners in developing and organizing the most effective and practical social/environmental responsibility programs.
