In July, I discussed with the Cabinet of the President of Republic of Timor Leste on supporting the One Million Trees Program. Conservation International will support the Government’s commitment of planting one million trees by the end of 2022, as stated by President Mr. Francisco Guterres (Lú Olo). By having one million trees, the country would be able to combat climate change, reduce land degradation, and bring clean water to communities. With the active involvement of all agencies and various partners, it is expected that more than 180,000 ha will be replanted or restored.
