About
IMPLEMENT: SUPPORTING, WITH FUNDS AND CAPACITY, DIRECT IMPLEMENTATION OF HEALTH, CONSERVATION, AND LIVELIHOOD PROGRAMS AT TWO SITES IN INDONESIA OUR PILOT PROJECT FUNDS ALAM SEHAT LESTARI (ASRI), AN INDONESIAN NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION ON THE ISLAND OF BORNEO. ASRIS INNOVATIVE APPROACH IS BASED ON A METHODOLOGY OF RADICAL LISTENING ITERATIVE COMMUNITY FEEDBACK ON THE FULCRUMS OF CHANGE AND THE RESOURCES NEEDED TO PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT. IN ASRIS CASE, THE LOCAL ECOSYSTEM IS THE ROUGHLY 267,000-ACRE GUNUNG PALUNG NATIONAL PARK, A TROPICAL RAIN FOREST AND HABITAT FOR 2,500 ENDANGERED ORANGUTANS. THE COMMUNITIES ASKED ASRI FOR AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE AND TRAINING IN SUSTAINABLE LIVELIHOODS. TODAY, HEALTH IN HARMONY PROVIDES THE MAJORITY OF THE OPERATING FUNDS, AS WELL AS TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR ASRI TO RUN A HEALTH CARE CLINIC WITH INPATIENT, OUTPATIENT, DENTISTRY, MIDWIFERY, AND PHARMACY SERVICES. THE CLINIC IS STAFFED BY YOUNG INDONESIAN PHYSICIANS TRAINED BY A ROTATING COHORT OF VISITING PHYSICIANS AND SENIOR INDONESIAN PHYSICIANS. IT ACCEPTS NON-CASH PAYMENTS (SUCH AS SEEDLINGS) AND PROVIDES DISCOUNTS FOR PATIENTS FROM VILLAGES THAT HAVE REDUCED OR ELIMINATED LOGGING. IN ADDITION, WE SUPPORT ASRIS TRAININGS IN SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE AND FOSTERING OF FARMERS COOPERATIVES, SMALL BUSINESS LOANS AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP TRAINING, TWO REFORESTATION SITES, AND OTHER LIVELIHOOD PROGRAMMING FOR MEN AND WOMEN IN THE REGENCY AROUND THE CLINIC. IN 2018, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH ASRI, WE EXPANDED SERVICES TO ANOTHER NATIONAL PARK IN WEST KALIMANTAN, BUKIT BAKA BUKIT RAYA. THE COMMUNITIES AROUND THIS 514,000-ACRE NATIONAL PARK FACE SIMILAR CHALLENGES TO LIVING IN HARMONY WITH THEIR ENVIRONMENT AS THE COMMUNITIES AROUND GUNUNG PALUNG, INCLUDING SIGNIFICANT MATERNAL MORTALITY. THESE HEALTH EMERGENCIES AND RESULTING HIGH MEDICAL BILLS FORCED COMMUNITIES TO LOG TO PAY FOR BASIC NEEDS AS A WAY OF LIFE, DESTROYING THEIR NATURAL RESOURCES AND HABITAT FOR A GROWING REHABILITATED ORANGUTAN POPULATION. WE HAVE STATIONED TWO MIDWIVES IN THESE COMMUNITIES AND CONDUCTED MORE THAN 400 PATIENT VISITS IN 2018. WE ARE FURTHER EXPLORING REPLICATION OF OUR MODEL AT SITES OUTSIDE OF INDONESIA AS WELL AS MECHANISMS TO RAPIDLY SCALE OUR APPROACH IN ORDER TO PROTECT AS MANY ECOSYSTEMS ALONGSIDE AS MANY COMMUNITIES AS POSSIBLE.
