Ensuring quality and transparency in reforestation
At Go Forest, our core team in Belgium may not be very large, but our reach and impact are. Through a vast network of dedicated partners and colleagues, we uphold high standards of quality and transparency in our reforestation efforts. Our strategic collaborations and meticulous processes ensure that every tree planted contributes effectively to combating climate change.

Forestry project types in Belgium and other European countries
Thousands of hectares of forests are threatened by climate change, pests, and diseases in Belgium and other European countries.

Learn about tree planting in The Netherlands
In this video we talk to the landowner of a Go Forest reforestation project in Markelo, The Netherlands. This video tells you more about tree-planting in The Netherlands but also in almost all European countries. Underneath the video you can find t(h)ree facts about our local tree planting initiatives.
Calculate the carbon storage of your forest restoration project
Accurate carbon measurement of reforestation initiatives can be quite difficult. Carbon storage depends on many factors such as tree species, climate, biodiversity, and more. That’s why we have partnered with Genvision, a company that specializes in accurately measuring, projecting, and visualizing carbon stored by forests. Through this collaboration, Go Forest members can have a science-based estimate, and later calculation, of the carbon stored by their tree planting project.
How can you plant your own trees and get subsidies for them in Belgium?
It is a fact; we need more forest. It is also a fact that forests do not stop at national borders, but planting close to home ensures that you can fully enjoy nature. Not only organizations can plant forest, you as an individual can also do your part, but without guidance it can quickly become very complicated. Therefore, we thought it would be good to go through the different steps to plant your own forest. Finally, we also tell you how to obtain subsidies.
