Aurum Fund Management Ltd. is very pleased that Project Regeneration has been nominated in the Ecosystem Project of the Year category at the BusinessGreen Leaders Awards 2016.
Project Regeneration is a collaboration with Synchronicity Earth, and is an innovative alternative to carbon offsetting schemes. Project Regeneration invests to have a positive impact on areas of high biodiversity. Since last year, Aurum Fund Management Ltd. has provided a grant, based on a multiple of its estimated annual carbon emissions, to a Malaysian NGO, Hutan. With local staff, predominantly woman, Hutan has been rehabilitating damaged and fragmented forest in a former palm oil estate.
