The Our-Trees Initiative
The Our Trees Initiative (TOUTI) highlights the importance of trees through the power of stories from many ways of knowing, inspiring actions that help trees and people flourish.
How TOUTI Works
TOUTI gathers and curates stories about trees from many sources to share with and inspire actions for diverse public groups. Four elements contribute to TOUTI:
Resource Hub
Curates tree stories, images, media, research articles, and people.
Actions for Trees
Support collaborative projects that help trees and people flourish.
NGS Explorers
Deepen and extend tree knowledge through field studies, presentations, and storytelling.
Node Focal Groups
Create materials and suggest actions tailored by node curators to each group’s values, venues, and capacity
