The authorities of Moldova and Romania have launched the Spring 2026 campaign in central Sculeni settlement, marking the beginning of works to plant over 31 million saplings. The event symbolizes cross-border cooperation for environmental protection and forests’ expansion, a joint effort for a greener future.

The campaign launched in Sculeni is part of the national afforestation programme, through which the authorities aim to significantly expand the forest fund area of Moldova, one of the lowest in Europe.

With the involvement of authorities from both countries, forestry specialists and volunteers, the initiative conveys a clear message: protecting nature and combating climate change are goals that can be achieved only through cooperation and shared responsibility.

The planting activities organized on the banks of the Prut thus symbolize not only an environmental project, but also a bridge of collaboration between Moldova and Romania, built around a common cause – protecting forests and the ecological future of the region.
