ABOUT Muntigunung Community Social Enterprises ( www.muntigunung.com) are part of a Poverty Eradication Program initiated and funded by the Swiss based Association Future for Children (www.future-for-children.com ).
A good number of capacity building processes were initiated. As a direct result of these initiatives, three social enterprises were formed in order to create employment and income (Food production, Handicraft Production and Trekking). The three enterprises (together with additional capacity building activities) employ today around 230 people.
561 000 trees were planted in order to support commercial activities and to create raw material and additional income for the population. In 2011 the Muntigunung Development Program was awarded with a Global Eco Tourism Award by Skal, in 2018 the Indonesian Government declared Muntigunung to become a future strategic tourism area.
In 2019, we started with a long term education program with the aim to increase the number of children which are taking part in the education process to 90%.
