In this post we present more details and some pictures about the project developed byGelamCure:   🚀 Project Overview -         Implementer(s): WWF-Malaysia and GelamCure -         Sectors: Sustainable land use and sustainable agriculture (NTFPs) -         Funding and TA support required: USD 439,000 (Debt, grant) -         Business stage: Later Stage (Growth and Establishment)   🌳 Landscape Context Located in the Setiu Wetlands, the project area is one of the largest areas of gelam forest in Terengganu state, which itself is home to nearly 65% of Peninsula Malaysia’s gelam forest. 🌱 Project Description The project will develop a business model for the sustainable economic use of gelam forest through the production of essential oils extracted from the gelam leaf. GelamCure, a local community-based organisation, will implement the model. 🎯 Business model and revenue streams GelamCure will practice regenerative, non-destructive harvesting of gelam forest in the Setiu Woodlands to produce essential oils. These will be used as the base for a range of aromatherapeutic and cosmetic products.

The Ups and Downs in forest restoration Landscape restoration and tree growing come with their own set of challenges. In Ghana, this year we've faced delays as well as seedling losses due to erratic season changes and dry spells. The planting seasons are becoming extremely unpredictable and unreliable and #ClimateChange is to blame. Because we are witnessing the impacts of climate change on our work first-hand, we are even more intrigued to contribute solutions to climate change through mitigation and community adaptation. Hence, despite these obstacles, we’re pleased to resume seedling distribution and tree planting to meet this year's target in Ghana:~ 1,302 hectares to be planted with native trees: and ~ 987 hectares to be planted with agroforestry species. We source tree seedlings from local nursery beds and we are already creating jobs and impacting lives with the project. However, we are quite excited about how the mangoes, cashews and coconuts being planted today will positively improve lives, local economies and biodiversity in future! Grateful to AstraZeneca for the financial support, Circular Bioeconomy Alliance and Nature & Development Foundation for partnership.
