Sharing Best Management Practices on Peatlands in Southeast Asia

摘要

Did you know that peat which has dried out too many times floats and refuses to absorb water? This is among the things learnt by participants in a Technical Workshop on Best Management Practices (BMP) for Sustainable Peatland Management held in Luwansa Hotel, Palangka Raya, Central Kalimantan, from 15th to 18th June 2011. The objective of the workshop was to build capacity among those involved in peatland conservation so that they can bring back new knowledge and shared experiences to be implemented in their respective countries.
