Local Nursery for the Quirimbas Region of Mozambique

Pro Natura International committed to supporting the Quirimbas National Park Development and Establishment Programme (DEP) with a 5 year programme of local capacity-building and agro-forestry/reforestation, aimed at providing an economic stimulus for the local communities that inhabit the buffer zones of the Park, through the generation of carbon credits and the production of diversified forest products.

The process included a field-based feasibility study which, over a period of 4 months, mapped out the needs of and opportunities for the local stakeholders, culminating in the production of a sustainable strategy business plan paid for by 21st Century Leaders and donated to WWF Mozambique.


Ramsco & Ramsco for Sustainable Charity Foundation

Ramsco’s mission is to create “zero waste” eco-villages communities in the desert. Thus, Ramsco provides cost efficient, innovative and environmentally friendly agriculture technologies through contract farming. Ramsco modified these technologies, coming from Pro Natura International based in France that decrease land, water and carbon foot print, to produce organic valuable crops with less water and more produce. The projects participate to political stability through food security with quality assurance and more job opportunities.
