Project description
The project aims to develop and institutionalize a multiple-use forest landscape and planning model which brings the management of critical PAs in Sabah and the surrounding landscapes under a common management umbrella. The project will develop and demonstrate a model by which the management costs of these PAs will be underwritten by the sustainable revenue streams generated by surrounding forest landscapes, compensating for the ecosystems services which these PAs provide to the landscapes within which they are located.
