In this context, Reforest’Action is partnering with the Balipara Foundation, an Indian NGO, with the dual objective of restoring the forests of the State of Assam, in the Eastern Himalayas, and developing agroforestry in order to provide local communities with more sustainable agricultural solutions for their cotton and tea crops. 

By planting over 1 million trees, this project will help fight global warming thanks to the carbon stored in their wood, enrich the soil, recharge the aquifers and protect the crops from too much sun, preserve and develop local biodiversity as well as allow local communities to harvest the fruits to increase their food security. Surplus crops can be sold in local markets to provide additional income. Local people are also trained in the benefits of agroforestry and the long-term maintenance of the planted trees. Through forest restoration linked incomes, communities are better able to access universal basic assets such as healthcare and education.

Influences the quality and integrity of the soil-water system, and the cycling of water and nutrients.

Contributes to the mitigation of the greenhouse effect and influences precipitation patterns and the local microclimate.

Supports human well-being, by providing resources, income, education, empowerment, and supporting culture and spirituality.

Preservation of local biodiversity by providing suitable habitats and resources.

The Indian state of Assam, located in the eastern tip of India, has lost more than 9.5% of its vegetation cover since 2000, due to the increasing conversion of natural primary forests into agricultural plots, and the invasion of exotic species that thrive at the expense of native vegetation. The result is a decline in the health of natural ecosystems, with soil degradation, increasing land desertification, and the depletion of water tables. Faced with a degraded environment, local populations are confronted with decreasing agricultural yields, which goes hand in hand with the collapse of their food security. In the state of Assam, only 8% of young people between the ages of 6 and 23 benefit from a healthy and balanced diet.

Founded in 2007, Balipara Foundation is an Indian NGO first dedicated to the conservation of Asian elephants across India. After several years in the field, their expertise enabled them to establish the link between saving elephants and preserving their natural environment: the forests. This led to the creation of the Rural Futures model, which aims to restore forests while generating income for local communities. Since the creation of Balipara, over 2,000 hectares of forest have been restored. Alongside these reforestation programs, Balipara has been developing agroforestry projects with local communities for the past 5 years, combining trees and cash crops to generate additional income.

Reforest'Action has joined forces with the NGO Balipara Foundation to restore the forests within the state of Assam, on the eastern edge of India, between Bhutan, China and Bangladesh. The aim of this project is twofold: to restore the degraded forests of this eastern Himalayan region, and to develop agroforestry within tea and cotton crops in order to provide local communities with more sustainable agricultural solutions. The "Living Lab India" Project is being developed under the Circular Bioeconomy Alliance established by His Majesty King Charles III as part of his Sustainable Markets Initiative. The CBA aims to catalyze investment to create resilient landscapes and sustainable markets powered by nature.
