The story behind the D&AD Impact Programme winner accelerating the development of urban forests

Here, the founder of the sustainable architecture consultancy theOtherDada speaks about how his Pencil-winning project that aimed to plant urban forests in Beirut grew with the help of the D&AD Impact Programme.
