As part of the partnership, First Capital will fund the restoration of approximately 4 kilometres of riverbank area (around 13-15 acres) along the Nanu Oya within the Great Western Estate in Thalawakele. The initiative forms part of PLANT’s ongoing Emerald Trails programme, which aims to create interconnected forest ecosystems in Sri Lanka's highly biodiverse southwestern region, home to most of the island’s endemic species.
