Home » About Us
Yayasan Ekosistem Nusantara Berkelanjutan (EcoNusa Foundation) was founded as a nonprofit organization on July 21, 2017 and is based in Jakarta. Our ultimate goal is to promote sustainable and equitable management of the natural resource-rich regions in eastern Indonesia. Each of our endeavor is designed to achieve this goal, while strengthening local and international initiatives despite the looming threats in those regions.
Connecting stakeholders
EcoNusa encourages the development and capacity building of civil society groups, while developing relevant strategies and facilitating advocacy, campaigns, communication, and stakeholder engagement efforts. With this collaborative effort, we also introduce the sovereignty values of natural resource management and conservation to all stakeholders including policymakers at the regional and national levels.
Upholding the values of sovereignty and sustainability
To uphold sovereignty and sustainability values, we promote best practices of environmental protection and sustainable natural resource management based on equitable principles through concrete actions along with local communities. We also ensure that the local development and community empowerment could provide valuable benefit the indigenous communities and their livelihood resources.
