Rainforest conservation and carbon program run with customary landowners.
The Dorobisoro Program is a Papua New Guinea conservation and carbon initiative developed in partnership with customary landowners to protect rainforest ecosystems while creating sustainable economic opportunities for local communities. The program is built on the principle that environmental conservation and community development can work together to support long-term social, environmental, and economic outcomes.
The initiative focuses on rainforest conservation, carbon management, biodiversity protection, and responsible land stewardship through collaborative engagement with traditional landowners and local communities. By supporting sustainable forest management and conservation practices, the program contributes to the protection of Papua New Guinea’s globally significant rainforest ecosystems.
The Dorobisoro Program also seeks to create opportunities for community participation, local employment, capacity building, and long-term revenue generation through responsible environmental and carbon-related initiatives. Partnerships with customary landowners are central to the program’s approach, ensuring that conservation efforts respect traditional land rights, cultural heritage, and community priorities.
Through its commitment to environmental stewardship, sustainable development, and community partnership, the Dorobisoro Program represents an important contribution to Papua New Guinea’s conservation efforts while supporting long-term opportunities for future generations.
