IDEP has had the pleasure to talk to EXO Travel Bali about the Bali Water Protection program to the staff of our new sponsor, EXO Travel Foundation. Their donation to our project coupled with staff empowerment about water savings measures is a positive step forward for the future of Bali’s freshwater.

2017 is the year of International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development and IDEP is proud to be working with change-makers in Bali’s tourism industry. We are thrilled to publicly announce our newest corporate partnership with a leading travel company in Asia, Buffalo Tours.

Foggy mid-day, gloomy weather, plus cold air of Asah Gobleg combine to provide unique conditions for community productivity in Desa Pedawa, Kec. Banjar, Kab. Buleleng whose farmers are learning about permaculture together

This familiar kind of scenery is a must check list to see for those who ever want to visit the Bedugul area, Lake Tamblingan, or even those who pass through on the way from Denpasar to Munduk – mist, cold and wet air, and also overlaying veggie fields and clusters of clove trees. In the midst of the cold weather, ten farmers of Desa Pedawa are fired up to learn about permaculture, while focusing on seed saving and the application of sustainable energy.

Waterbom Bali has been a very supportive sponsor of the Bali Water Protection program as their wristband donation program towards saving Bali’s freshwater is extremely successful. Nowadays, they are also directly recharging the underground water tables thanks to their newly built recharge well.

Since November 2016, Waterbom Bali is asking every customer to support Bali Water Protection (BWP) program by donating their wristband’s deposit and, if very generous, what would be left in the wristband.

We are pleased to announce that IDEP has a new pioneer sponsor for the Bali Water Protection program (BWP): The Body Shop® Indonesia. On top of the donation, the Body Shop® will assist IDEP to develop BWP with the long-term goal of saving Bali’s freshwater.
