VH

Vijo Holdings is a Uganda based organization fighting poverty and climate change together. What started as a tree planting initiative in 2017, is today an agroforestry expert organisation working through local partnerships to run holistic agricultural development projects in East Africa and beyond. Since 1983, we have contributed to the planting of about 80 million trees.
We work in collaboration with farmer’s organisations, advising and training farmers in sustainable agricultural land management such as agroforestry.
In agroforestry, trees are planted alongside crops and livestock on the farmland. This gives more fertile soils, better yields, and a richer variety of crops. Farmers shifting to agroforestry get more food and better incomes. The trees also help increase biodiversity, bind carbon, and stop soil from being washed away by floods.

Over the last seven years, we have helped more than 1.2 million people improve their livelihoods. We offer outstanding expertise in agroforestry, climate change adaptation and mitigation, promoting well-proven practices based on scientific research. Our focus on both human and environmental sustainability makes us unique.
