TerraFund for AFR100
A partnership of World Resources Institute, One Tree Planted, Realize Impact, and Barka Fund, TerraFund for AFR100 invested in Africa’s Top 100 locally led land restoration projects in 2022. Located across 27 member countries of the AFR100 Initiative, these community-based non-profits and enterprises received grants or loans of $50,000 to $500,000 each. In 2023, a new cohort joined, focused on Kenya's Greater Rift Valley, the Ghana Cocoa Belt, and the Lake Kivu & Rusizi River Basin in Burundi, DRC, and Rwanda. Local organizations apply for funding through TerraMatch, which then tracks their progress by combining field-collected data with insights from WRI’s Land & Carbon Lab.
