Two ways Indonesian projects are tackling waste and rural livelihoods
Indonesia has 15 tracked sustainability projects on Keys for Tomorrow. Looking across the catalog, two approaches keep recurring.
Indonesian sustainability projects focus heavily on the plastic and food-waste crisis, alongside social enterprises supporting rural and smallholder communities.
1 Replace plastic with biodegradable alternatives
A recurring pattern: packaging made from natural materials like cassava, rice, and seaweed to directly displace single-use plastics.
2 Support smallholder farmers and rural communities
A second group works directly with rural producers — renewable energy, fair trade sourcing, and sustainable design for community resilience.
