    Dyera polyphylla, which is locally known as jelutung, is a tree that produces latex. The latex is used for chewing gums, insulator, tube, and others. The wood is soft and bright colour, which can be used for pulp, plywood, pencil, wooden toy, and others. It naturally grows on peat swamp forests in Sumatra and Kalimantan (Indonesian part of Borneo). Along with fast deforestation, population of wild jelutung is decreasing. In the era of degraded peatland restoration, jelutung was promoted to be planted in reforestation and afforestation.

This internationally-recognized vision for Forest and Landscape Restoration (FLR) allows the promotion of synergies between the three Rio conventions and can contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).

    Les forêts méditerranéennes d’Algérie, Liban, Maroc, Tunisie et Turquie couvrent une superficie totale de près de 19 millions d’hectares. Ces forêts ont été et seront soumises de manière croissante à des pressions anthropiques (surpâturage, collecte de bois de chauffe, incendies, conversions agricoles, etc.) et aux effets dus au changement climatique (augmentation des températures et de la fréquence des événements extrêmes, diminution des précipitations, attaques parasitaires, etc.) Ainsi, des phénomènes de déforestation et de dégradation forestière sont observés.
