Location: Central Kalimantan, Indonesia

Last Update: 01/09/2024

Wilmar established the "Sekolah Alam" or "Nature School" in Central Kalimantan within the conservation areas of PT Mentaya Sawit and PT Karunia Kencana Permai. The aim is to provide children with the opportunity to experience the forest and its biodiversity up close, while raising awareness and fostering an interest in nature stewardship among future generations. Since 2022, Wilmar has spearheaded this concept in Indonesia by constructing walking paths that connect three jungle trekking routes, traversing several conservation areas. As of September 2024, 1,195 students have participated in this programme.
