All of the Earth’s species work together to survive and maintain their ecosystems
Biological resources provide for at least 40% of the world’s economy and 80% of the needs of the poor. Meanwhile, the world continue to suffer from biodiversity loss as a result of threats associated with loss, fragmentation and degradation of habitat, unsustainable use of natural resources, climate change, the spread of invasive species and many more.
We work to advocate and raise awareness about restoration, conservation, protection and sustainable utilisation of biological resources.
Over the years HATOF has implemented several conservation projects and programmes, and recovered more than 2000 hectares of degraded land and coastal areas, whiles providing sustainable alternative livelihood to over 1000 beneficiaries along project sites in Ghana.
We continue to promote nature-based solution actions to address the global challenges, such as climate change, food and water security, and poverty reduction.
HATOF promotes youth engagement in national and international CBD negotiation and national policies process to address biodiversity loss. To ensure more coordinated youth voices and engagement in halting biodiversity loss in Ghana, the National chapter of the Global Youth Biodiversity Network (called Ghana Youth Biodiversity Network) was established in August 2017, with HATOF Foundation being the host secretariat.
