Our Vision
A restored and healthy eco-system in the Hyrcanian Forest, Fertile Crescent, and Anatolia, supported and maintained by healthy and resilient communities.

Mission
Trees for Hope enables and empowers communities to connect with their land and respond to our planet's need for a healthy and thriving eco-system.
Co-creating restored eco-systems, the communities draw strength, inspiration and wisdom from Nature to live fulfilled, meaningful, and happy lives.

Goal
Offering 4 Ecovillage Design Education courses a year to communities across the Fertile Crescent and Hyrcanian Forest, with an emphasis to connect with land and design rewilding projects with communities, municipalities, and local government.

Following each Ecovillage Design Education course, Trees for Hope offers an Earth Restoration week to the local and international participants to integrate our desire to be part of the solution for earth healing, grounded in practical action and service to our ecosystems.

Our goal fulfils United Nation's Sustainable Development Goal 15, namely to protect, restore, promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss.
​
​Trees for Hope promotes and supports the ecological restoration of degraded ecosystems in Fertile Crescent and Hyrcanian Forest.  We provide education, training, and resources for communities and partner organisations to enable local people to become active in returning their degraded landscapes and watercourses to a condition of sound ecological health.Trees for Hope is realising this Vision with partners, collaborators, and friends around and across the world.

Our project needs your support.  Please donate what you want to enable Trees for Hope realise its purpose.  Any support is greatly appreciated.
