Community Development
Beyond research and policy, CSWM UI is deeply committed to community engagement. Our community services are designed to translate sustainability principles into real actions — from waste management to youth empowerment and public education.
Through collaboration with campuses, local governments, and communities, we develop models that are inclusive, scalable, and impactful.
Empowering Communities for Sustainable Action
Translating sustainability principles into real-world impact through inclusive and scalable community engagement models.
Waste Management Model
This program develops sustainable and integrated waste management systems tailored for both campuses and communities. Through initiatives like Campus Waste Management and Community Waste Management, CSWM UI has collaborated with partners such as Universitas Indonesia (WM UI) and Bank Indonesia (WM BI) to implement data-based and behavior-driven waste solutions.
Community Empowerment Initiative
This initiative enhances local community capacity through Desa Binaan programs that promote sustainability and responsible waste management. Our activities include community training, TPS3R facilitation, and social mapping to ensure that empowerment efforts are contextually relevant and sustainable over time.
Ecoedutourism
By integrating environmental learning with local tourism, this program connects visitors with real-world sustainability practices. Ecoedutourism serves as a bridge between education, culture, and environmental action — inviting the public to experience how sustainable systems work in practice.
Youth Leadership Program
Through initiatives like Eco Pioneer, CSWM UI nurtures young leaders who are passionate about sustainability. This program empowers students and youth networks to design and lead local sustainability projects, fostering the next generation of changemakers.
Public Education and Webinar
To strengthen public awareness, CSWM UI organizes a wide range of educational events and tools. These include the Expert Forum, SROI Training, and Education Book Series for children and teenagers — making sustainability accessible and inspiring for all ages.
