We bridge people, forests and inclusive technology — caring for the land and growing a new generation of changemakers across Indonesia

We put big data, remote sensing and participatory mapping into the hands of communities — making forests visible, traceable, and protected together.

We grow open-minded changemakers and amplify community voices — especially women, youth and indigenous people — to lead the decisions that shape their forest







A green belt is something you can see, map, and protect together. We work at the frontiers where forests and people meet — bridging the social and the biophysical with inclusive digital tools and grounded local knowledge — to care for the land and grow a new generation of open-minded changemakers.

Partnership, inclusion, transparency and strong safeguards woven into every programme.

Indonesia's forests and the people who depend on them face mounting pressure — and the tools to respond rarely reach the ground.

Degraded landscapes bring floods, drought and lost biodiversity.

Forests are our best natural climate solution — yet they keep disappearing.

Local and indigenous people steward forests but face growing pressure.

Technology is advancing fast and growing complex — but its power stays with a few. The challenge is to democratise it, so no community is left behind.
