Sarawak Forest Community Tech Initiative
Good Health and Well-being
Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages
With internet connectivity, the project enables telemedicine services for rural communities. Residents gain access to remote healthcare consultations and support, improving overall health and reducing the challenges of living far from urban centers
Quality Education
Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all
By providing satellite-based internet to rural areas, the project opens access to online education for children and adults. This empowers communities with knowledge, skills, and opportunities for personal and economic growth, ensuring no one is left behind.
Affordable and Clean Energy
Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all
The project brings affordable solar power to rural households, reducing reliance on polluting diesel generators. This clean energy solution improves living conditions, lowers emissions, and supports sustainable development in remote areas.
Decent Work and Economic Growth
Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all
The initiative creates jobs in forest conservation, such as monitoring, data collection, and patrols. Locals are trained to play active roles, providing steady income while fostering ownership and pride in preserving their natural resources.
Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure
Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation
The project uses innovative satellite technology and AI to protect forests and monitor ecosystems. By bringing internet connectivity to rural areas, it also improves infrastructure and supports technological development in remote regions.
Climate Action
Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts
The project fights climate change by preserving Sarawak’s forests, which absorb carbon dioxide and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Advanced satellite and AI technology prevent deforestation, forest fires, and other environmental threats, helping mitigate climate impacts globally.
Life on Land
Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss
We protect Sarawak’s biodiversity by conserving forests and habitats for wildlife, including endangered species. Using technology, we monitor threats like illegal logging and take action to restore damaged ecosystems. This ensures sustainable land use and long-term environmental health.
Partnerships for the Goals
Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development
We work closely with the Sarawak government, local communities, and global stakeholders to ensure the project’s success. Collaboration attracts funding, resources, and expertise, making conservation and community development possible on a large scale.
