      Our platform is a technological solution to fight climate change and solve deforestation. Tree-Nation acts as the missing link between Humans and Nature, allowing citizens, companies, and planters to work together to reforest the world while compensating for their CO2 emissions. Tree-Nation invented the digital tree, a tool that accounts for every physical tree planted, and creates traceability, trust, and a sense of ownership for everyone who gets involved in our mission. Here, I am the responsible for bringing new projects to our platform by active searching, contacting interested stakeholders, giving support and interacting with the projects holders globally. Also managing our international network of volunteers and reviewing existing projects and species. With tropical forestry and field experiences in reforestation projects, I participate in the pre-selection, technical validation, ongoing relationship and monitoring of international afforestation and reforestation projects.
