Angola advances with initiatives for environmental preservation and combating deforestation

In January 2025, the Angolan government announced a series of initiatives to strengthen environmental preservation in the country. The main focus is on protecting its tropical forests and mitigating the impacts of deforestation, which has seriously affected local biodiversity and climate balance.
Among the planned actions is the launch of a national reforestation program, which aims to recover degraded areas and increase forest coverage in the country. Furthermore, inspections against illegal logging and burning activities, which have contributed to the destruction of vast areas of native vegetation, will be intensified.
The measure also involves promoting the sustainable use of natural resources, with the implementation of ecotourism and sustainable agriculture projects, to benefit local communities and create alternatives for generating income without harming the environment. Environmental experts emphasize that these actions are fundamental to ensuring Angola's ecological future and helping to combat climate change on a global level.
Information about the Angolan government's initiatives to strengthen environmental preservation in the country, announced in January 2025, was obtained from official sources and recent news reports. Angola’s Environment Ministry has released details on the launch of a national reforestation program and increased enforcement against illegal logging and burning activities. Furthermore, the holding of the International Conference on Biodiversity and Conservation Units, scheduled for January 30 and 31, 2025, was announced by the Ministry of the Environment, Ana Paula Pereira, highlighting the importance of protecting biodiversity and promoting sustainable solutions in the country.
