About us

About Hutan Synergy

Hutan Synergy was founded in 2023 out of strong convictions that Nature-based carbon projects are uniquely able to provide meaningful solutions to the critical sustainability issues of our time—climate change, biodiversity, inequality—while serving as the foundation of a regenerative economy.   

 

We work and co-develop exclusively with Hutan Kencana Group—the owner and developer of multiple peatland and mangrove conservation and restoration projects in Indonesia.   Leaning on the decades of industry experience of our founders and executive team, we provide critical services – securing investment, sales, marketing, and strategic advisory—to the Group and its high-quality projects. 

Climate

Since 1990, we’ve lost 420 million hectares of forests. This means millions of trees, once absorbing carbon from the atmosphere, are no longer available to help regulate CO₂ levels. Deforestation is one of the most direct threats to our ability to combat climate change. 

  

At Hutan Synergy, we invest in the restoration and protection of peatland and mangrove ecosystems through high-integrity, forestry-based carbon projects. We set out to breathe life back into burned and damaged landscapes—transforming them into thriving ecosystems. 

Community

We recognize that local communities are key stakeholders in forest conservation and management. Our community-based approach ensures that local people are involved in decision-making and benefit from the conservation and restoration of forests. Through meaningful engagement and collaboration, we strive to create opportunities for local communities to benefit from the conservation of forests, thereby enhancing their well-being and livelihoods. 

  

At Hutan Synergy, we believe that nature thrives when communities do too. Our approach to ecosystem restoration begins and ends with people—local stewards of the land whose knowledge, resilience, and dreams are central to everything we do. 

We don’t just plant trees. We build trust, co-create solutions, and invest in livelihoods that restore dignity alongside degraded landscapes. 

Biodiversity

Southeast Asia’s forests are home to an extraordinary array of plant and animal life, many of which are now on the brink of extinction. Without urgent action, we risk losing not only species—but the ecosystems that sustain human and planetary health. 

  

At Hutan Synergy, our projects are designed to confront this crisis head-on. We focus on conserving and restoring critical habitats, monitoring threatened wildlife, and engaging communities as stewards of their environment. Together, these efforts help safeguard the rich biodiversity of the region—and ensure that nature continues to thrive for generations to come.
