Transforming and restoring through agroforestry for climate and ecosystem resilience, India (TRACE)

Grounded in Landscape & Community

Across Assam and Meghalaya, homestead lands are an integral part of rural life, sustaining families through generations of farming and traditional knowledge. Restoring these landscapes through agroforestry is as much about nurturing the land as it is about the people who depend on it.

“We are not only growing trees on our land; we are growing security for our families. Each sapling that survives is a promise that our soil will hold, our income will rise, and our children will inherit a land greener than the one we received.”
