🌎 Uganda: Community‑led tree planting along the edges of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is giving residents access to medicinal, timber, and firewood species outside the gorillas’ habitat. 🦍 Less pressure on the forest means safer space for roughly 450 gorillas — nearly half the world’s remaining population, and still growing.
🤝 Batwa Indigenous leadership guides which species to plant, restoring degraded land while supporting biodiversity and local livelihoods.
🌿 Such community conservation increases tourism revenue, craft sales, and sustainable resource access. It also helps ensure people and gorillas “do not inconvenience each other,” as one craftswoman put it.
