Registered as a certified Plan Vivo project in 2010, the CommuniTree Carbon Program uses reforestation to restore ecosystems, improve livelihoods, and reverse climate change. Co-founded by Taking Root and local NGO, APRODEIN, CommuniTree works with smallholder farmers in Nicaragua to grow trees alongside their existing farming practices. It has grown to become the largest reforestation initiative in the country, and has been featured by the UN and EU for its best practices in reforestation.
