Ghana’s ER program is an ambitious and unique initiative in Africa—and a global first in the cocoa sector—that is supporting the production of sustainable, climate-smart cocoa beans while reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation. The program addresses landscape management with a focus on sustainable cocoa farming, forest protection, community-based landscape governance, and multistakeholder collaboration; it also promotes other tree crops, agroforestry, and other nature-based livelihoods within the cocoa forest hot spot intervention areas.
