Ecosystem Restoration: Green growth opportunities in the Katingan Peatlands

This report, Ecosystem Restoration: Green growth opportunities in the Katingan Peatlands, presents options to improve the green growth project outcomes done in the Katingan Peatlands and identifies the benefits of mitigating carbon emissions and preserving vital ecosystem services. 

This report also presents the results of a case study which applies extended Cost Benefit Analysis (eCBA) to present monetary values of costs and benefits associated with green growth policy interventions in a peatland project. The results of this eCBA study also highlight the importance for the government and the private sector to work together to ensure the economically productive and sustainable use of forest and peatland.

In addition, Green growth is increasingly understood, and seen as desirable, by government and private actors. The BAPPEDA Central Kalimantan and GGGI, for example, have also produced the report "Central Kalimantan: Moving Towards Green Growth" that uses a green growth lens to examine a range of government-led initiatives that support sustainable development.
