Mangrove Planting in Kampung Dato Hormat in partnership with UPS Foundation

This project has resulted in the establishment of a local community group who are aware and concerned about the peat swamp forest degradation issues called Friends of North Selangor Peat Swamp Forest (FNSPSF); and development of peatland environmental education programme called Peatland Forest Ranger, to educate school children on the importance of environmental protection on peat swamp forest.

The project aims to plant 9,000 mangrove trees which approximately covers an area of 4.5 ha of mangrove forest in Tebuk Mendeleng, followed with monitor and nurture over the next three years.

The project aims to support mangrove forest conservation and rehabilitation in Sungai Limau, Manjung, Perak which can support the livelihood and welfare of the local communities while protecting and enhancing the surrounding mangrove ecosystem.

Under this project, 4,000 trees will be planted on two hectares of degraded mangrove area in Tebuk Mendeleng within the first and second year including the maintenance. An additional planting of two hectares will be determined in the second year of the project period from 2022 to 2024.
