The Heart of Borneo is one of the most important areas for biodiversity on the planet. Spanning a total of 240,000 km2 of equatorial rainforest, it straddles the borders of Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei. It is home to an incredibly rich diversity of plants and animals that cannot be found anywhere else in the world.
However, logging, land-clearing and conversion activities for commercial uses, including rubber, palm oil and pulp production are considered to be the greatest threats to the Heart of Borneo.
WWF is working with the 3 Borneo nations (Brunei, Indonesia and Malaysia) to conserve the area through a network of protected areas and sustainably-managed forests.
