SOLUTIONS
To tackle, address and ultimately overcome the major, decades-long problems and abuse of local lands, rainforest depletion, loss, and neglect, and the appalling social consequences they have created, this Project has established a number of positive goals and objectives.
The Northern Mindanao Project Response These goals and objectives will be implemented within an initial Three Year Project Plan; a new and positive plan that principally will:
  1. Restore the denuded mountains through reforestation of native tree and agroforestry
  2. Create sustainable sources of income through agroforestry green economy
  3. Achieve this new income both through harvest & from carbon capture.
  4. Position a new land and climate management focus and discipline
  5. Deliver a “solution” to meet the needs of both the tribe and nature
  6. Develop new opportunities, ambition, and optimism – for young and old
  7. Present new training, education, jobs, and income
  8. Return pride and respect to these natural people and their lands
