Research provides the basis for making key decisions on conservation protection for important habitats. We support and encourage Indonesian and international research students and award annual research grants.
Pondok Ambung Tropical Forest Research Station in Tanjung Puting National Park, is a park facility that has been developed and maintained by the Orangutan Foundation since 2005. It is used by international researcher, Indonesian students and university groups for wildlife and forest research.
In 2004, the PHVA (Population and Habitat Viability Assessment) Workshop brought together the world’s foremost experts on orangutans. Using the results of an orangutan population survey that was funded by the Orangutan Foundation and satellite imagery, the workshop identified all known orangutan populations and identified those most critical to the survival of the species.
We are now accepting applications for the 2011 Orangutan Foundation Grant. Deadline for applications is 9th June 2011.
