Kyrgyzstan is strengthening efforts to restore forests, crucial for ecological stability, and protect mountain ecosystems. A tree-planting event, part of the "Green Heritage" national campaign, took place on December 5, 2025, in the Kara-Kemen gorge of the Issyk-Kul region.

This initiative falls under the FRIENDS regional project, "Forest Restoration for Ecologically Sustainable Development in Central Asia." Implemented through the FAO-Turkey Partnership Program, the project aims to bolster regional countries' capacity for forest restoration and combat land degradation.
