Forests: Reasons to be hopeful with Marie-Noëlle Keijzer - BEYOND THE CANOPY (Full Episode)

What does it really take to restore ecosystems at scale, beyond planting trees? In this episode of Beyond the Canopy, we sit down with Marie-Noëlle Keijzer, CEO of WeForest, to talk honestly about the realities of ecosystem restoration. From restoring more than 80,000 hectares to planting over 100 million trees, WeForest’s work reaches far beyond forests, it supports livelihoods, strengthens communities, and builds long-term resilience for people and nature alike. Together, we explore what works (and what doesn’t) in large-scale restoration, why community leadership is essential, and how science, transparency, and integrity are non-negotiable if we want restoration to deliver real, lasting impact. We also discuss the growing role of corporate partnerships and how to make sure they truly support ecosystems rather than just good intentions. Whether you’re working in conservation, sustainability, impact investing, or simply curious about how restoration really happens on the ground, this conversation offers grounded insights and hopeful perspectives.
