The activities implemented by the OroVerde Tropical Forest Foundation vary

greatly depending on the region and country. For example, rainforest con-

servation areas are established and looked after in the long term, reforesta-

tion measures are supported, and measures are taken to protect against

timber theft and poaching, and alternatives for agriculture and income are

developed together with the population. In doing so, OroVerde promotes the

introduction of forest-friendly and sustainable economic practices to im-

prove local living conditions so that people can live from and with the fo-

rest. Only together with the local people can rainforest protection work sus-

tainably and in the long term. Together with local organisations and the

population, solutions are sought that make it possible to escape poverty and

at the same time protect the unique rainforest as a habitat.

ZEITRAUM supports these measures and thus

helps to ensure that the precious rainforest is

protected.
