School of Eco-Involvement

School of Eco-Involvement (SEI) is a capacity building program to promote social justice and develop competent local cadres who have serious concern with their villages in Eastern Indonesia.

About the School of Eco-Involvement

In collaboration with the Rainforest Foundation Norway, EcoNusa has developed an initiative called the Eastern Indonesia Forest Facility (EIFF) which aims to materialize sovereignty of natural resources in sustainable and equitable way in Eastern Indonesia (Papua and Maluku). The five-year program is designed to run from 2019 to 2024.

One of the core elements of this initiative is the Eco-Involvement School. The School is built to strengthen the resilience of local communities in managing, protecting, and utilizing natural resources in their traditional management areas. To meet this objective, one of the important tasks at hand is to prepare local villagers and government officials so that they have a comprehensive understanding of their living space, environment, and various resources of livelihoods.

There are four types of priorities in the implementation of the School of Eco-Involvement:
