Indonesia is one of the world’s richest countries in terms of natural resources, with unparalleled biodiversity in its vast tropical rainforests, but these have not yet been fully exploited, and those without access are trapped in poverty and without decent wages.

As a result, young women are forced to abandon their education due to financial problems. They are then forced to marry and help their families on the farm to provide for their daily needs.

But we found a great potential for them to grow by optimising the natural resources around them, where many farms, gardens and the most abundant natural potential exist.

Establishing a community of women’s empowerment is our step to organise them to support them through life skills training of hand art work (botanical print and patchwork), producing traditional snacks and honey, and farming.
