What We Do
AWARENESS & COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
“Know your river” is part of the awareness campaign by FOSP. Engaging the community neighbouring and surrounding IIUM in ROL program. This involves other IHLs, schools and focus will be on Orang Asli where activities could have some monetary incentives (e.g. through buy-back of recycled items)
BIODIVERSITY & BEAUTIFICATION
Planting trees, flowers along the Sungai Pusu river bank will not only beautify the area but provide environmental benefits such as preventing soil erosion, providing shelter for wildlife and decreasing runoff of pollutants into the water
RESEARCH
Challenges faced in Pusu River System are an opportunity for researchers to explore solutions that could be implemented to address these challenges. Final year projects, integrated design projects and postgraduate students could be actively involved.
REHABILITATION
This activity embraces a great variety of measures having in common the emphasis on the environmental health of the river, which may have been lost or degraded by human intervention. Rivers flowing in a university campus should reflect a natural aesthetic and recreation attraction to the residents and visitors.
