Summary
In Côte d'Ivoire restoration deploys a sparce set of tree species and a fraction of the spectacular tree diversity of the former high conservation value forest. This project will build capability/capacity to use a wide array of indigenous, particularly threatened, through inventory of a degraded 6800 ha botanic reserve, seed collection, propagation, supporting nurseries to raise and stock a wider range of trees, and growing the market for them by raising awareness of biodiversity among cocoa and other restoration actors.
