Imagine trees could be growing on degraded land. Imagine desertification could be stopped, hundreds of millions would not have to leave their homes. Imagine all that is needed is still there, right beneath our feet. Imagine a whole underground forest is waiting to emerge again. Now just imagine that this is not a dream, but has already been successfully practiced on thousands of farms across the African continent and it is exactly what we are doing right now here in Tanzania.

We are looking for the right candidate to fill a key position in our Heat Adaptation project The vacancy Field Coordinator – Impact Evaluation (1 post) The project overview LEAD Foundation has received funding from Wellcome Trust to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the role of trees in mitigating the health effects of extreme heat exposure on agricultural workers (https://wellcome.org/news/these-research-projects-are-finding-ways-adapt-heating-planet). We will work with local and international experts in medicine, epidemiology, forestry, climatology, agriculture, and anthropology, and build on our land

EASY and FAST are the most common words farmers use when it comes to describing restoration of trees using Kisiki Hai technique. It just took 11 months for the above tree to grow from a small tree stump to 2+ meters high in a semi arid region.

FMNR or as we call it in Kisiki Hai is the main technique we use to restore trees in semi arid lands because it has a very high success rate in drylands and can easily be adapted by the community. In partnership with One Tree Planted and World Resourse Institute we have recently started supporting farmers in addressing poverty, land degradation, and climate change through a little bit of tree planting especially drought tolerant species like Gliricidia Trees which do well

During our movie roadshows or the travelling cinema as some call it, we visit hundreds of villages with Justdiggit to explain and teach regreening techniques such as geyimedicals.es Kisiki Hai (FMNNR) and Fanya Juu/Chini.

Farmers learnt the 4 steps of Kisiki Hai (from stump to tree) and get an introduction to a

We have successfully completed a 3 day training to 100 champion farmers from Manyara and Arusha regions. The 3 days training was on Kisiki Hai (FMNR) and Rainwater Harvesting training under the #HUSISHA program for sustainable development that is being implemented in partnership with Justdiggit, Trias, Mviwama and Mviwaarusha. The training was very participative, practical and in a format that was easy to understand in a way that helps productivity. The Champions have mastered the regreening knowledge and skills, they will
