Emas Hitam Indonesia Details
Founded in December 2015, Yayasan Emas Hitam Indonesia (EHI) is a grassroots permaculture NGO that aims to promote, support and develop regenerative solutions to poverty and development across Indonesia. Our name, translated as ‘black gold' refers to humus: the dark, nutrient-rich organic material that forms from the natural decay of plant and animal matter. In this way, livelihood improvement through soil regeneration is a key aspect of our work. We have conducted training, design programs and consulting across Bali, West Timor, Lombok and Sumatra. EHI's objectives are: 1. To train and empower farmers in regenerative agriculture techniques to improve livelihoods and promote ecological restoration; 2. To assist communities adapting to climate change and the Bali water crisis through practical, local and cost-effective solutions that protect and regenerate the natural environment; 3. To create and maintain our project site in Petulu (Ancut Garden) for local farmers and the wider community to share knowledge and promote sustainable ways of seeing and interacting with the environment; 4. To apply permaculture ethics and principles in our work that align with the Balinese Tri Hita Karana philosophy, inspiring the community to redistribute, recycle, reuse or return surplus and waste to the soil.
