UI Forest, (Indonesian: Hutan UI) is a significant green space located within the University of Indonesia (UI) campus. It serves as a natural reserve and a vital ecological area, providing a habitat for various plant and animal species. The forest covers a substantial area and is used for educational and research purposes, particularly in the fields of biology, environmental science, and forestry.[1]
Background
