No ecosystem should be left behind
I grew up in a city with unique ecosystems, from abundant peatland forests to beautiful coastal areas: Ketapang regency in West Kalimantan, Indonesia. However, it was only in 2015 that I realized how little I knew about the nature around me. I started my sustainability journey by becoming part of the first cohort of a conservation camp with other youth in KetapangPongo-dopsi: Working with local communities to preserve coastal areas
Located on the island of Borneo, Ketapang is one of the largest regencies in Indonesia’s West Kalimantan province. With an area of 31,588 sq km, it has various ecosystems, including peatlands, rainforests and even coastal areas populated bycharismatic animals such as orangutans, hornbills and turtles.
