Rimba non-profit organisation was created under the French law of 1901 and established in 2012

It is designed to protect Indonesia’s biodiversity while raising awareness and involving local people in our projects.

Our actions are part of a global project for the preservation of forest and marine ecosystems through a socio-environmental approach that revolves around several field of action combining environmental protection and assistance in the development of local communities.

Indeed, we believe that the protection of the environment can only be done with the support and participation of the local communities. Conversely, helping local populations also contributes to protecting their natural resources.
