Environment and climate are core strategic priorities for the AKDN, stressing that good environmental stewardship is part of the development agenda and ensuring that the Earth can sustainably support future generations. In line with this goal, AKDN agencies and institutions have worked towards a number of goals, including reforestation. For example the Aga Khan Foundation and the Mountain Societies Development Support Programme planted a forest in Roshtqala, Tajikistan, with support from the local community. AKDN has planted over 130 million trees as part of activities that include land reclamation in arid and despoiled lands.
