The Practice of Peatland Rehabilitation

For each of the forest rehabilitation projects they deliver, AAP is responsible not only for the initial site survey, nursery work and out-planting, but also for ongoing site maintenance for three years, during which time AAP is obliged to ensure the survival of the seedlings. “All of our seedlings must survive in accordance with the work contract. We are obliged to replace any that die with new ones,” said Faishol. For this reason, AAP monitors all of the work that is performed in the field, including the level of community participation.
