ACCRA, Ghana, March 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Ghana Forestry Commission and Terraformation, a native, biodiverse reforestation company, today marked the next phase of their collaboration at a signing ceremony in Accra, strengthening a strategic partnership to support Ghana’s national landscape restoration initiatives, climate resilience, and economic development priorities.

The collaboration reflects a shared focus on scaling locally-led restoration efforts that create jobs, strengthen livelihoods, advance social goals, and protect the ecosystems on which communities depend.

This alignment supports a growing pipeline of forest restoration projects that are nationally led and deliver tangible benefits on the ground, and builds on a vital mangrove restoration project in Keta Lagoon engaging Terraformation, Regenerative Development of Anlo Wetlands Ltd. (ReDAW), Agrointroductions Ghana (AiG), and local communities—advanced under the Forestry Commission’s Letter of No Objection issued in 2025.

“Ghana is demonstrating how climate action can go hand in hand with economic growth—restoring ecosystems while creating jobs and strengthening communities,” said Jad Daley, President of Terraformation, who co-chaired the roundtable with the Ghana Forestry Commission, and is set to review the progress on the Keta Lagoon project site.

“Ghana pursues collaborations that contribute not only to ecological restoration in our country but do so in tandem with the economic and social needs of our people,” said Dr. Hugh C.A. Brown, Chief Executive of the Ghana Forestry Commission. “This approach marks our work with Terraformation, and we’re excited to drive this partnership forward.”

The Keta Lagoon project in the Volta Region represents a guiding example for these efforts. This project, one of the largest mangrove restoration efforts in the world, was initiated with implementation partner ReDAW, in direct engagement with local communities. ReDAW began large-scale rehabilitation of degraded coastal wetlands in 2024, with more than 3.2 million mangroves planted to date. This first phase has created hundreds of full and part-time jobs, a significant portion held by women—highlighting how restoration can contribute to inclusive economic opportunity and social development.

A second phase will launch later this year under the leadership of implementing partner AiG, working adjacent to the first phase. More jobs will be created as AiG moves into implementation, with restoration of these mangrove systems helping to restore fisheries and improve diverse livelihoods for people that depend on these natural resources.

By restoring mangroves—one of nature’s most effective defenses against climate change—the project also helps reduce flooding and erosion while strengthening long-term resilience for coastal communities.

Today’s announcement underscores a broader effort to expand this model—supporting additional projects across Ghana and reinforcing a national approach that links restoration, economic growth, and community leadership.

The ceremony, held at the Forestry Commission headquarters in Accra, brought together government, scientific, and local partners to highlight Ghana’s continued leadership in advancing climate solutions that deliver for both people and the economy. It followed a strategic meeting about expanding nature restoration projects to address Ghana’s national goals.

About the Keta Lagoon Blue Carbon Project

‍Located in Ghana’s Volta Region, the Keta Lagoon Blue Carbon Project is restoring up to 6,000 hectares of degraded mangrove wetlands within the Ramsar-designated Keta Lagoon complex. The project will plant 12 million native mangrove trees, removing an estimated 2.3 million tCO₂e over 40 years while protecting endangered species and strengthening coastal resilience against erosion and storms.

‍Developed in partnership with Regenerative Development of Anlo Wetlands Ltd. (ReDAW) and Agrointroductions Ghana (AiG), the initiative creates local jobs, supports small-scale aquaculture and beekeeping, and reinvests carbon revenues into community development through a dedicated trust fund. Keta Blue is validated under the Verra VM0033 methodology and stands as a model for science-based, community-driven restoration that delivers measurable carbon removal, biodiversity recovery, and direct economic benefit to the communities doing the work.

About Terraformation

Terraformation is a native forest restoration company dedicated to scaling biodiverse, community-led reforestation. The company provides training, technology, and access to capital to help partners establish projects that restore ecosystems, capture carbon, and strengthen local communities.

Community-led trail restoration efforts grow across the U.S. as outdoor recreation surges and volunteer trail groups decline.

MISSOULA, Mont., March 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — onX, the industry pioneer in digital navigation technology, is partnering with Toyota for a second year to expand the Trail Revival Project, a nationwide stewardship initiative dedicated to protecting and restoring access to public land trails.

In 2026, the Trail Revival Project will support 24 trail restoration and cleanup projects across the United States, bringing together off-road clubs, volunteers, and land managers to maintain and reopen trails threatened by erosion, storm damage, overgrowth, and illegal dumping.

The effort comes at a critical moment for public lands as outdoor recreation continues to surge. Many off-road trail clubs — longstanding operational partners to land managers responsible for clearing, maintaining, and restoring trails — are facing declining participation. Despite contributing more than 2.6 million hours of service annually (work equivalent to over 1,700 full-time employees) these groups are seeing reduced engagement, while land management agencies contend with limited staffing and funding. As a result, many trails go without consistent maintenance, leaving them increasingly vulnerable to erosion, overgrowth, and closure.

Toyota returns this year as onX’s key partner, providing funding, vehicles, and logistical support to help power trail restoration efforts nationwide.

In its first year, the onX and Toyota Trail Revival Project initiative mobilized 400+ volunteers across 14 projects in 13 states, contributing more than 2,400 hours of trail work to restore 30 trails and nearly 50 miles of access routes through debris removal, drainage repairs, trash cleanup, and other maintenance.

Trail Revival Project events currently planned for 2026 include:

• March 21: Mark Twain National Forest, Missouri
• March 21: Tonto National Forest, Arizona
• March 28: George Washington National Forest, Virginia
• March 28: Ocala National Forest, Florida
• April 1: San Bernardino National Forest, California
• April 25: Mendocino National Forest, California
• April 25: Coeur d’Alene National Forest, Idaho
• June 6: Langlade County OHV Trails, Wisconsin (Rain Date June 11)
• June 28: White River National Forest, Colorado
• June 28: Salmon-Challis National Forest, Idaho
• July 26–August 8: Pioneer Trail, Carson National Forest, New Mexico
• August 8: Arapeen OHV Trail System, Utah

Additional projects will be announced in the coming months.

“Access without stewardship is simply not sustainable,” said Griffen Gilbert, onX Offroad Community Marketing Manager. “Trails don’t maintain themselves. The Trail Revival Project supports the land management agencies, local clubs, and volunteers who do the work to keep these routes open for future generations.”

“Toyota Trucks are designed for adventure seekers, and with that passion comes a responsibility to help preserve the places where those adventures happen,” said Mike Tripp, Group Vice President of Toyota Marketing. “Building on the positive impact we made in 2025, we’re excited to continue supporting the Trail Revival Project and the dedicated volunteers working to keep trails open for the community.”

“I’m excited to join New York Angels, an organization that has built its reputation over decades by giving founders a meaningful edge,” said Bodenheimer. “What drew me here is the membership itself: deeply experienced founders, operators, and investors with networks that span industries and geographies. As the capital landscape evolves, NYA is positioned to lead. My focus is to expand our reach, equip our members to play an even more active role in backing great companies, and make NYA the first call for the country’s best founders.”

After 12 years with New York Angels, Liz Lindsey will retire from the organization. As Executive Director, Lindsey has managed the organization seamlessly and ensured the consistent and very high-quality performance of NYA systems. During her tenure, she has seen ~1,600 founders pitch to NYA and witnessed a number of incredible exits.
