Digital Humani, a Montreal-based non-profit organization, has spearheaded the development of an advanced reforestation technology. This innovative platform serves as a bridge between reforestation organizations and a diverse array of groups. Their pioneering Reforestation as a Service (RaaS) has emerged as a scalable and economically viable solution, enabling environmentally conscious organizations to support reforestation initiatives through their day-to-day operations. Notably, Digital Humani has successfully planted over 300,000 trees in collaboration with reputable partners. We had the opportunity to speak to Jonathan Villiard, General Manager and Founder of Digital Humani, to learn more about his conscious and admirable non-profit.
