Advancing a just, green future

Together with individuals and foundations, we tackle some of the most urgent environmental and social challenges of our time. Philanthropic support helps us ignite new initiatives, accelerate proven solutions and explore bold models for sustainable change.

The Challenge

Forests and crucial ecosystems are under severe threat. More than a million species are at risk, and environmental degradation affects billions of people, linking nature loss directly to economic instability, food insecurity and climate disruption.

Our Approach

We don’t just plant trees. Our forest and landscape restoration work is rooted in science and centred on lasting impact for people, nature and the climate. We partner with local communities to design and deliver solutions that restore biodiversity, strengthen livelihoods and safeguard vital natural resources.

Your Impact

Philanthropy isn’t just funding — it’s a strategic force, driving innovative solutions to complex challenges. It attracts additional investment and builds confidence across our stakeholder network.

Our grassroots solution

In response to this collective challenge, WeForest champions a dynamic approach that is holistic, trustworthy, and locally-led.

Holistic

Our approach integrates stewardship, restoration and economic resilience. This combination enhances biodiversity, supports sustainable development, increases food and water security, and creates long-term environmental and social benefits.

Trustworthy

As direct implementers, each project is guided by internal monitoring and evaluation (M&E) experts at the project, country, and HQ levels. This multi-layered approach ensures our model is rooted in rigorous research, external verification, and adaptive management.
