Kyaninga Forest Foundation

KFF has successfully planted over 80,000 indigenous trees, leading to a dramatic increase in the abundance and biodiversity of many birds, primates, insects, and lizards in the Kyaninga Forest. Similarly, the distribution of trees to local communities has helped reduce the pressure on the remaining forest. However, the Ugandan population continues to rise at an alarming rate and therefore the need to provide sustainable sources of energy and transfer knowledge on climate-smart agricultural practices has become ever more urgent. To begin to address this KFF is now working with communities across the wider Kabarole, Bundibugyo, Kamwenge, and Ntoroko Districts in Western Uganda to help identify sustainable methods to provide for future generations, whilst maintaining intact and stable ecosystems.
