Building towards a future of carbon sovereignty for Sabah.
Forest, Water & Soil
Carbon Sovereign Sabah emerged in response to the signing of a Nature Conservation Agreement between the Sabah State Government and a Singapore-based company that granted exclusive rights to monetise 2 million hectares of Sabah’s forest reserves for carbon and non-carbon assets — without the Free, Prior, and Informed Consent of the indigenous communities that surround and inhabit them. An advocacy campaign envisioning a future of carbon sovereignty for Sabah, CSS aspires to elevate carbon and climate literacy and discourse through convenings, conversation and knowledge sharing locally, regionally and beyond.
