Project Planet Indonesia is dedicated to the conservation of earth's ecosystems and
Descripti communities by providing market-based incentives that balance ecological and
on human livelihoods with cultural preservation. We incentivize conservation and
community development at the grassroots level. We help low-income communities to a
better life by providing economic benefits for preserving local resources and customs.
We create local business groups for each of our programsto self-fund. The small
cooperatives ensure that our projects can be completely self-reliant. We work ourselves
out of an area and empower communities to create their own sustainable business
models. The project funds will be used in three main areas: 1) developing, founding, and
training the local agroforestry business group. 2)conducting biodiversity surveys on the
degraded land to obtain baseline data in order to track how biodiversity increases
through time, and socio-economic surveys with members of the agroforestry business
group. 3) developing our seedling nursery to act as the bank where seeds are grown
into seedlings that are suitable for planting in the field.

Descripti Dandora Dumpsite Rehabilitation Group (DADREG), is seeking support to help
on equip the training facility with equipment that will help us enable the youth and
women with skills that will make them become competitive in the job market and
creators of jobs as well. Dandora dumpsite is the largest dumpsite in Eastern and
Central Africa. The dumpsite employs 10,000 people most of whom are women, youth
and children. Majority of these people work here because of poverty and lack of skills that
would have enabled them to undertake decent jobs. Currently, DADREG is developing
training programs for the youth and women and wants to equip a catering/pastries
department. DADREG had already acquired tailoring facilities from Workaid, a Charity
based in the United Kingdom. The aim of this project is therefore to provide continuous
training to many women and youth in Dandora without limiting the numbers.
