PERI BUMI initiative

PERI BUMI

Founded in Indonesia through education action in 2021. PERI BUMI started from the restlessness of mothers in our community that had previously been formed by AKAR FAMILY, an educational institution which started its journey in 2015 under a childcare and preschool named ROOTS LEARNING CENTER, and children healthy food catering named HEALTHY ROOTS, then formed a parenting community called PARENTING IS EASY.

Mothers feel threatened by climate change, which is increasingly happening in Indonesia, and feel they must be able to do something but are confused where to start. This is where PERI BUMI is present and embraces each of these concerns in an online learning medium, which in the end gathers more mothers throughout Indonesia, to learn about how to nurture, educate and try to do the simplest things to get used to mindful behavior in consumption and production, starting from the smallest scope of each person.

The mothers' movement then expands the network to other key actors who are also very influential in children's lives; teachers and elementary school-age children, to play a role in strengthening connections to change fundamental behaviors related to wrong consumption and production habits but have been passed down from generation to generation in Indonesia.

Our strength and vitality lie in being one organization working together in local places and across borders to achieve our global mission; safeguard our children's future.

Thanks to more than 500 members and the dedicated efforts of more than 30 experts, 60 local and international practitioners, and communities that helped us. We impact a sustainable lifestyle in Indonesia, and will have much more impact on families, communities, schools, and the entire society.
