Kahayan Hilir District, Central Kalimantan, IndonesiaSamenvatting
Tropical peatlands cover around 45 million hectares of the world. Half of these peatlands are located in Indonesia, mostly on Kalimantan. Tropical peatlands are currently under threat due to land-use change, drainage and climate change. One of these locations under threat is Desa Gohong (Gohong village), Central Kalimantan, where peat fires caused deforestation and loss of various income sources for the community. This report focusses on the development of a sustainable Melaleuca focussed plantation design to improve the livelihoods in Gohong and restore degraded peatlands, in collaboration with SFP Social Forestry.
