The Nature Conservancy Asia Pacific’s Post

🌿 In East Kalimantan, Indonesia, a decade of green collaboration has contributed to the expansion of sustainable conservation programs. Rich in natural resources, East Kalimantan plays a strategic role in preserving tropical forests and sustaining life globally. In collaboration with The Nature Conservancy’s partner in Indonesia, Yayasan Konservasi Alam Nusantara (YKAN), the provincial government has been working to implement green development principles to empower local communities and preserve the region’s natural heritage. This includes performance-based incentives for 441 villages from the Forest Carbon Partnership Facility Carbon Fund (FCPF-CF) to work towards emission reduction and a commitment to managing areas of significant biological, ecological, cultural and social value, such as the region’s Wehea-Kelay Landscape. A great example demonstrating the importance of collaboration in fostering a sustainable future! 🔗 To learn more about Indonesia’s green collaboration efforts visit: https://nature.ly/3FsAP6L #GreenCollaboration #EastKalimantan #SustainableFuture #YKAN #TheNatureConservancy 📸 Photo Credits: © Yayasan Konservasi Alam Nusantara 1.
