LBO - A community-restoration project in Galicia, Spain brings native species back to their forests

Local Biodiversity Outlooks (LBO) presents perspectives and experiences on the current social-ecological crisis from indigenous peoples and local communities around the globe. This film documents the efforts of a community nature restoration project in Galicia, Spain, that is working to replace industrially-planted trees with native species. In the 1940s, the state usurped the land neighbouring the community, deforested it and replanted pine and eucalyptus trees, which overpowered the native plant and tree species. The pine and eucalyptus made the area more vulnerable to wildfires, and resulted in a severe loss of biodiversity. The Froxán community regained ownership of their land and are now working together to restore natural plant and tree species, as well as developing a connection with the land that they can share with future generations.
