Siyabulela “Siya” Sokomani, a young entrepreneur from South Africa, runs a commercial nursery that grows thousands of native saplings every year. By nurturing those trees, he is restoring degraded land and fighting climate change in his community’s township in Cape Town. He’s one of countless African leaders critical to achieving the African Forest Landscape Restoration Initiative’s (AFR100) goal of building vital landscapes across 100 million hectares by 2030.
