• Project description
  The Katingan Project is to be managed through an ecosystem restoration concession (ERC or IUPHHK-RE), one of the land-use permits issued by the Government of Indonesia. The concession area provides forest dependent communities with access to a variety of natural resources including timber and non-timber forest products and fish. The project seeks to reduce greenhouse gas emissions within the ERC area by avoiding previously planned deforestation from forested land conversion and restoring and conserving peat swamp forests, while safeguarding community and biodiversity benefits. Some of the activities include: - Ecosystem restoration through water system management, reforestation and enrichment planting - Forest resources conservation through forest fire prevention and control, habitat conservation and management - Livelihood development through non-timber forest products, agroforestry, ecotourism, salvaged wood production, aquaculture and sustainable fisheries, microfinance, efficient energy use and production…
