The Habitat Foundation is committed to supporting capacity building opportunities among the next generation of scientists, practitioners, and community organizers. We provide specialized training designed to equip frontliners with a range of skills that are essential to the challenging work they do.
In November 2019, in partnership with the Southeast Asia Rainforest Research Partnership (SEARRP), a leader in rainforest research, and Tropical Biology Association (TBA), we developed a specialized Boot Camp for Conservation Leaders and Changemakers for frontliners from across Malaysia and Southeast Asia. The Boot Camp was very positively received and we are excited to announce that we will be holding a Boot Camp in September this year and will post a Call for Applications in April 2020.
THE HABITAT RESTORATION INITIATIVE
Hornbills and Orang Asli Communities – farmers of the forest
The Habitat Foundation is proud to provide a grant to the Malaysian Nature Society towards implementing a pilot initiative under its longstanding Hornbill Conservation Project to develop a community nursery that stocks hornbill (and other wildlife) resource plants and trees. The nurseries will be developed with Orang Asli from Kampung Chuweh in the Belum-Temengor Forest Complex.
