Fig 3. While providing knowledge and tools to the communities, we assist them with two strands of funding. As shown in the diagram, one method is the immediate provision of day-to-day sustenance. During the reforestation period (3-5 years) we provide income based on the number of trees planted. On reaching identified annual targets, an important communal incentive is provided as a bonus. These will be essential infrastructural solutions like provision of clean water, energy efficient stoves, solar power electricity, education, health care, etc. The funds for these incentives are covered through the Green VIP scheme. The agroforestry programme will start to pay dividends after this period. In time it will develop in to a fair-trade schemes bringing in greater dividend. In the long run, decrease in direct payments will be compensated by increase in income from diversified livelihoods, and sustainable means of employment. This should lead to long term eradication of extreme poverty in your 'twinned' community.
