TRAINING TO EXPAND ECO-AGRICULTURE (TREE) PROGRAM
Goals
• enable 1,250 smallscale farmers to regenerate over 12,800 acres of degraded land
• plant 1 million trees
• increase incomes and food security for 8,000 people.

TREE Honduras will be based on our successful Promoter 4 Change pilot project. Our pilot project partner, INFOP (Instituto Nacional de Formación Profesional) or National Vocational Training Institute in English, will help us improve on our methodology based on the results from Promoter 4 Change to expand our reach, influence, and impact.
We’re excited to announce that two new partners, Rikolto and Horizon Empowers, are joining us to help expand our innovative program. Their support will propel TREE Honduras forward, allowing us to reach even more family farmers.
Collectively, smallholder farmers hold the power to significantly impact the global climate.
If all 500 million smallholder farms transition to regenerative practices,
they could sequester 8 gigatons of CO2 per year
(53% of the total change needed from emission reductions and sequestration).
By 2030, SHI will scale TREE to multiple countries,
transforming 1 million smallholder farming families lives
through the regeneration of 8 million acres of degraded land,
planting 1 billion trees and sequestering 16 million tons of CO2.
