About Tomorrow’s Forest Foundation

Tomorrow's Forest Foundation is an apolitical, non-profit organization whose objective is to promote the role of the forest in the fight against climate change through afforestation and reforestation projects, education and awareness, or supporting innovation in the field of sustainable forestry.

The Foundation was established in 2019 to increase the scope of the reforestation programme of the same name, launched in 2017 by the Association of Forest Administrators and the Ștefan cel Mare University in Suceava, with the support of HS Timber Group.

Vision, Mission, Values & Goals

Effective climate action is the biggest challenge of our generation. In our vision, the forest is the best ally we have in the fight against the effects climate change has on nature and human communities alike.

Forests can help cool our planet, they control rainfall on both local and continental scale, and are the best technology for capturing and storing CO2 from the atmosphere.

Ensuring the continuity of forests, expanding the forested areas, and empowering the forest communities in Romania enhance the multiple protection functions of forest ecosystems: for soil and water, for biodiversity and habitats, for all those living on the frontline in the fight against climate change.

The mission of Tomorrow’s Forest Foundation is to contribute to the expansion, the protection, and the sustainable management of Romania’s forests, as well as empowering communities in the fight against climate change.

Our values

• Caring for forests;
• Concern for the climate legacy we create for the future generations;
• Innovation to support forests;
• Orientation towards solutions;
• Working with and for the people, with and for the communities;
• Participating in actions as a community actor and trusted partner.

Action Directions

Forest for Carbon

Every cubic meter of wood captures approximately one tonne of CO2 from the atmosphere and stores it throughout the entire lifecycle of the wood, spanning hundreds of years, from the forest to the furniture and timber constructions. Trees are the best and cheapest carbon capture technology in the fight against climate change.

Forests for Soil

Through trees we can ensure soil fertility, adjust its humidity, and fight against desertification. This brings real benefits to agriculture and restores degraded land for community use.

Forests for Water

Forests increase rainfall, purify drinking water and protect water habitats for biodiversity. By planting forests and managing them responsibly we can protect water streams and recharge groundwater aquifers.

Forest for Wildlife

Forests are essential habitats for wildlife, and Romania’s forests are well known for their unique, thriving biodiversity.

Forest for Communities

Forests build resilient communities, which are in turn the best guardians of the trees. At the same time, with the help of forest ecosystems, urban communities can fight the effects of climate change more effectively.
