The government wants to plant a wild number of trees this season. Malawi is launching a national forestry campaign focused on planting four million trees to boost environmental resilience. Minister of Natural Resources Alfred Gangata announced the effort, which will distribute over forty million seedlings nationwide. The plan also involves managing thousands of hectares for natural forest regrowth.

An official launch event will occur at Mpata Primary School in Phalombe District. Second Vice President Enock Kamzingeni Chihana is set to lead the activities. Gangata emphasized that trees provide critical food, medicine, income, and climate adaptation benefits. This is vital as the country faces recurring floods and heavy rain damage.

The minister urged all citizens, civil society groups, development partners, and private businesses to participate. The broader goals include nationwide forest conservation and sustainable management practices. Protecting existing forests is framed as essential for a more resilient future.
