Case Details

The forests of Lilengo

The forest of Lilengo is an area in Burkina Faso supported by the Belgian NGO Entrepreneurs Without Borders (OZG). They have successfully regenerated the forest and ground cover of this area that was very badly affected by the droughts of the late 1990s. Working with local people and using simple cultivation techniques has enabled them to restore productivity to the land of Lilengo.
