IDWIP 2026 Tree-Planting Tracker & Indigenous Voice Archive

An AI-powered tree-planting tracker combined with an Indigenous Voice Archive. As trees are planted by field workers in indigenous communities across Nigeria, community Elders record oral history, botanical knowledge, and native songs in their own mother tongues. Powered by Google Gemini AI, recordings are transcribed, translated into English, and anchored to individual trees, each accessible via a public QR-code profile page.
