The Challenge
Illiteracy and poverty contribute significantly to environmental degradation in many regions. Due to low literacy rates, raising awareness about the dangers of environmental destruction is challenging. This makes it essential to educate communities and foster a collective understanding of environmental issues.
In many cases, extreme poverty forces people to engage in harmful activities that degrade their surroundings in the quest for survival.
Furthermore, law enforcement is often too lenient toward those committing environmental crimes. This laxity is sometimes due to bribes or incentives that officers receive, undermining efforts to protect the environment and enforce regulations.
Urgent Solutions
To address deforestation and promote environmental conservation, a multifaceted approach is essential. This includes launching a major campaign to emphasize the importance of preserving forests and encouraging every individual to plant and maintain at least one tree, whether in urban or rural areas.
Additionally, securing land with adequate water supply equipment will be a priority to develop nurseries, ensuring the sustainable growth of new trees. To make this effort more accessible, plants will be provided to the public at a reduced cost, encouraging widespread participation in reforestation and environmental stewardship.
Why your donation matters

Your support will enable ADHET to carry out vital reforestation efforts, which will help slow the desertification process.
