Founded in 2007, Taking Root’s mission is to use reforestation as a tool to restore ecosystems, improve livelihoods, and tackle climate change. It follows the Plan Vivo standard, a holistic reforestation framework that emphasizes community participation, using native tree species and protecting critical watersheds.
