Agricultural transformation and green growth in Africa depend heavily on forests. One billion people rely on Africa's forests, which make up 23% of the continent's land mass. African youth can lead efforts and find solutions to preserve and revitalize the continent's rich natural heritage by learning about forests.
We celebrate today's International Day of Education with initiatives driven by the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) and partners that promote forest education and motivate children and young people to protect the environment.
