Ghana: "LEAN" project the preservation of biodiversity

The Landscapes and Environmental Agility across the Nation (LEAN) project aims to protect this threatened biodiversity. Recently launched in Ghana, the project is being implemented by a coalition of organizations including World Vision, Tropenbos Ghana, EcoCare Ghana and Rainforest Alliance. 

"The LEAN project will build climate resilience, reduce emissions from land-use change in Ghana's savannah, high forest and transitional areas, and help local farmers improve their livelihoods," says EcoCare Ghana.

The LEAN project, which is expected to end in 2024, is funded with $4 million from the European Union (EU) under the Global Climate Change Alliance Plus (EU GCCA+).
