Jaro Village, one of the PT Adaro Indonesia assisted village, was awarded the 2020 Utama Trophy of Climate Village Program (Proklim) from Indonesia's Ministry of Environment and Forestry.
The presentation of the award was carried out virtually on Friday (Oct 23, 2020) and attended by the ranks of the Tabalong District Government from the Hall of Nan Sarunai of the district government office here.
This success, said PT Adaro Indonesia's CSR Department Head Leny Marlina, thanks to the good collaboration between Adaro, the Tabalong Environment Agency, and the people of Jaro Village.
Proklim is the government program to accelerate climate resilience at the village level. Related to the program, Jaro has done various of its leading effort to adapt and mitigate climate change.
Jaro, with the assistance of the local government and Adaro, has made its natural rice field into agro-tourism, as well as making farmers settlement clean, green, and beautiful, and independently developing superior rice seeds, rice food products, and communal cattle farming.
They also processed cow manure, both solid and liquid, into manure, bio-urine, and used as biogas.
The next challenge for Jaro is to win the Proklim Lestari trophy which is the highest level. PT Adaro Indonesia's CSR support this step.
Leny said PT Adaro Indonesia really cares about environmental issues that are developing today. It has become a priority issue, as environmental damages increase and started to result in changes in landscapes, including climate change.
Climate change is one of the strategic discussions in the development of environmental issues.
The Kampung Asri (harmonious village) Program in Jaro was implemented by PT Adaro Indonesia's CSR together with the Tabalong Environment Office from 2018 until now.
