OUR STORY

Since our establishment in 2017, EcoNusa has coped with the challenges on the remote islands of Eastern Indonesia. We have responded to those challenges by devising multiple strategies on forest and ocean protection through research, education, social responses, capacity building, while building public awareness. As part of this effort, in the last two years, we have used a rented boat to execute four series of expeditions with social missions to the remote islands and coastal communities.

Now, to complete our vision, we have our own boat as the perfect tool to augment our work and bring hope to the people of Eastern Indonesia with carefully-selected expedition routes.

EXPEDITIONS

OUR PLAN

The EcoXplorer has been designed for a mission to defend marine and forest ecosystems in Eastern Indonesia and build community resilience by working with indigenous and local communities from one remote island to another. By actively protecting one of the world’s remaining paradises, the EcoXplorer serves as a vital tool to support the global movement to protect our planet Earth.

WANT TO SUPPORT OUR MISSION?

To ensure our mission with the EcoXplorer going forward, we need your kind help. When you donate to the EcoXplorer, you give significant contribution to amplify our shared dream of delivering hope on a boat and building a better future for forests and the ocean in Eastern Indonesia for the future generations. Our biggest challenge right now is the operational costs to keep the EcoXplorer's mission running. This reflects our profound commitment to defend the environment and promote the socio-development in Eastern Indonesia's remote areas.

EcoXplorer

Why is the presence of the EcoXplorer needed?

Half of Indonesia’s remaining intact forests are located in Eastern Indonesia. These regions also the heart of the most pristine marine biodiversity left in the world. Thus, protecting these regions from potential harm should become the public’s ultimate concern. The EcoXplorer will supercharge EcoNusa’s ability to bring hope, protect forests, and support local communities. Our intention is to make this boat a driving force to educate people on how they can reduce the rate and impacts of climate change, prevent destructive marine activities and forest loss in one of the most important biodiversity hotspots in the world. We also have a hope that EcoXplorer could help uplift the locals economy in Eastern Indonesia.
