Comment planter une micro-forêt en 10 étapes ?

A micro-forest is a small, planted forest that maximises tree density and biodiversity. Micro-forests are essential for environmental restoration and carbon sequestration.

A typical micro-forest is 100m2 to 1 hectare in size. It hosts at least 25 tree species though ideally this should go to 50 or more.

In the design of its micro-forests, the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF) emphasises the protection of endemic and indigenous species and the planting of food, medicinal, and feed plants that can be useful to local communities.
