TreeSisters provides funding for reforestation to non-governmental organisations and indigenous communities. Funding is available for projects in developing countries in the tropics. TreeSisters also funds projects held by, run by, or supporting indigenous and tribal people in the tropics - including developed countries such as French Guiana or Australia. We prioritise the avoided deforestation and forest degradation of forests with high conservation values. This latter term includes primary forests, old-growth forests, high conservation value forests (HCVs), intact forest landscapes (IFLs), and high carbon storage forests.
