Strategy 2: Forest Cover

Forest Cover
Increase carbon sink through
afforestation and reforestation with a target of planting 500,000 new trees.


This strategy seeks to increase Brunei Darussalam’s carbon sink through afforestation and reforestation programmes with a target of planting 500,000 new trees by 2035. Increasing our forest cover would increase our carbon sequestration potential. This will have positive effects on habitats, biodiversity, and ecosystems.


A further 400,000 trees from the existing target have been proposed leading up to 2035. However, this target requires the establishment of a sustainable funding and planting mechanism. Additionally, full participation of the public and private sectors is essential to ensure an integrated approach for a successful reforestation program.
