Description
Africa is losing over 4 million hectares of forest annually, worsening climate change and poverty. Traditional reforestation efforts often fail due to poor monitoring and limited community involvement. This session explores how AI-powered environmental monitoring and community-led initiatives can scale tree-planting efforts, restore degraded landscapes, and drive sustainable development. We will showcase GreenTech Reforestation’s model, which combines AI, satellite data, and local partnerships to accelerate impact.
