RIVER RANGERS- STRENGTHENING LIVELIHOODS ROOTED IN WATERSHED STEWARDSHIP IN BABAGON CATCHMENT, SABAH, MALAYSIA

Jeffrey Abun is an inspiring citizen scientist and one of the village leaders for the Payment for Ecosystem Services (PES) project near the Babagon Dam.  He’s also a Field Coordinator for Forever Sabah – a civil society organization in Malaysia’s Sabah state dedicated to the protection and restoration of the region’s natural habitats. Born and raised in Kolosunan, he can track, catch, and reliably identify dozens of species that serve as useful biological indicators for gauging water quality. 

 As we celebrate World Water Day 2023 and the UN Water Conference, read more about how this GEF SGP funded project is working towards strengthening livelihoods rooted in watershed stewardship in Babagon Catchment, Sabah, Malaysia.
