The Bukit Tigapuluh Landscape Conservation Programme has grown from an orangutan reintroduction project into a large scale conservation programme that includes Sumatran elephant conservation, community development, education and forest protection. The Bukit Tigapuluh landscape is a biodiversity hotspot and our goal is to preserve its beauty, its wildlife and its importance as a functional ecosystem for future generations.

The Mobile Education Unit is FZS led and travels to schools around Bukit Tigapuluh NP to teach children about the importance of nature. By playing games, the children gets to experience the forest through all senses (except taste). They learn that nature is not a place to fear and the importance of not littering. The teachers of the classes are also taught so that they can do this education themselves in the future. Here is a class from School No.67/VIII in Maura Sekalo, Sumatra, Indonesia. Here Hery Trijoko is leading the class. © Daniel Rosengren
