Who are Eden Reforestation Project?Updated an hour ago
TL;DR: Eden Reforestation Projects is a reforestation organisation, now operating as Eden: People+Planet. It employs people in local communities to grow, plant and protect trees, which restores degraded land and creates paid work at the same time. Koh partnered with Eden between 2020 and 2024 and planted one tree for every order placed. That programme has ended, so a Koh order placed today does not plant a tree.
✓ Now called Eden: People+Planet
The organisation you may know as Eden Reforestation Projects has since renamed. Same work, different name.
✓ Our partnership ran 2020 to 2024
We are keeping this article up because customers ask about it. It describes something we did, not something running now.
Who are Eden Reforestation Projects?
✓ A reforestation non-profit that employs local people
Eden focuses on reforestation and ecological restoration. Its model is to employ people from local villages to grow, plant and protect trees rather than fly in outside labour, so the work restores degraded forest and creates paid, ongoing jobs in the same place.
It has worked in countries including Nepal, Indonesia, Madagascar, Kenya and Mozambique. It is an independent organisation, not a Koh programme.
What was Koh's involvement?
✓ One tree for every order, 2020 to 2024
Between 2020 and 2024 we partnered with Eden and planted one tree for every order placed. Trees went into Eden's projects in Nepal, Indonesia and Africa, which restored forest and created work and income for the communities doing the planting.
That partnership ran for that period and has since ended.
⚠ This is not a live programme
An order placed with Koh UK today does not plant a tree, and we do not want anyone buying on that basis. If you are choosing between products because of the tree-planting programme, that programme has closed.
We have kept this article up because it is a question we still get, not because the partnership is running.
Ended in 2024
So what does Koh do now?
✓ Ocean-bound plastic, with Greenspark and Plastic Bank
Plastic Bank works with coastal communities in Haiti, Brazil, the Philippines and Indonesia, paying collectors a premium for the plastic waste they gather so it becomes a fair and sustainable income. The material collected is then reprocessed and reintegrated into products and packaging.
