The initiative aims to restore degraded forest landscapes in Ghana’s Ashanti, Bono, Ahafo, and Eastern Regions by combining reforestation with climate-smart agriculture. Led by the Forestry Commission and the Presidential Initiatives in Agriculture and Agribusiness, the project uses the Modified Taungya System and Community Resource Management Areas to empower local communities, promote tree planting, and support alternative livelihoods. With a $5.3 million budget over four years, SFRI seeks to enhance forest cover, improve rural incomes, and strengthen sustainable land governance.
