Tree Planting

The Borneo Wildlife Preservation (BWP) supports local NGO’s in vital tree-planting initiatives aimed at restoring rainforests in Borneo. These efforts focus on replanting degraded areas, creating wildlife corridors, and promoting biodiversity.  By aiding in reforestation, ancient migration routes for Bornean elephants can be reconnected, which is critical to preventing human-elephant conflicts and ensuring the survival of this endangered species.

In addition to restoring ecosystems, BWP aids in the care of rescued elephants, providing them with a safe environment and the support they need to thrive. These projects also generate jobs for local communities, empowering residents to actively participate in conservation efforts while fostering economic stability. BWP is committed to improving livelihoods, protecting biodiversity, and promoting coexistence between humans and wildlife.

The success of these initiatives depends heavily on the support of the international community. Global contributions are vital to sustaining efforts to heal the rainforests, safeguard endangered species, and secure a sustainable future for both wildlife and local communities.
