Summary of engagement
SIG and WWF are collaborating to expand efforts to improve the management of the Ulu Muda Forest Complex and an associated key ecological linkage area (together totalling close to 170,000 hectares) through strengthening local forest governance and responsible management. The project will also pilot the restoration of 25 hectares of a degraded forest area for improved water quality and aims to build capacity for local communities to take more proactive roles in the governance and management of the landscape by providing input to local and state authorities.
