Better Globe Group Chairman Rino Solberg had the opportunity to visit the farmers program in Dokolo, Northern Uganda in early December 2017. During the same trip, a site forester was hired, and a nursery technician was already undergoing training in Better Globe Forestry’s Kiambere nursery in Kenya. Budgeting was underway, and farmer recruitment had kicked off in the form of an information campaign starting with the relevant district authorities. All in all it was quite a promising start, with a target for 2018 of planting at least 300,000 seedlings with some 1,800 partner farmers.
