Partnerships for Nature: MoU signed to launch Restore Bhutan Project

A massive win for people, planet, and the future of climate action.

Bhutan has launched Restore Bhutan, an ambitious restoration roadmap to bring life back to 50,000 hectares of forests, farmlands, and urban spaces, while strengthening climate resilience and supporting local communities.

The Royal Government of Bhutan, together with Conservation International, the Bhutan Trust Fund for Environmental Conservation, and the Bhutan Ecological Society, unveiled Restore Bhutan, marking a unified commitment to large-scale restoration.

A Memorandum of understanding was officially signed, solidifying this long-term commitment to restoration and climate resilience.

With the potential to remove 1.96 million tons of CO₂ and generate new green livelihood opportunities, this partnership shows how science, policy, and communities can co-create solutions that benefit everyone.

For Mountains to Mangroves, this is a powerful example of how climate leadership can be community-driven, inclusive, and grounded in long-term sustainability.

Real impact happens when restoration empowers people.
