SDG 15

SDG 15 : Life on Land

SDG 15 aims to protect, restore, sustainably manage terrestrial ecosystems and stopping the biodiversity loss. It focuses on preventing desertification, restoring degraded land, conserving forests, and safeguarding biodiversity.

UNIMAS actively promotes the conservation of land ecosystems through education, fostering awareness and knowledge about the significance of these ecosystems within its community. UNIMAS goes beyond awareness and takes concrete actions to support land ecosystems, engaging in conservation efforts and research to protect terrestrial biodiversity and preserve natural habitats.

Supporting land ecosystems through education

Events about sustainable use of land

Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS), in collaboration with the Sarawak Forest Department, is set to embark on a scientific expedition to the Sabal Permanent Forest Reserve from 23 to 29 November 2024. This initiative aims to document and study the rich biodiversity of flora and fauna within one of Sarawak’s vital forest ecosystems.

Through this expedition, UNIMAS seeks to enhance understanding and conservation of the forest, providing valuable insights that support sustainable environmental management. By engaging researchers and students in hands-on fieldwork, the programme highlights UNIMAS’ commitment to preserving natural heritage and promoting ecological awareness.
