Our Lever of Change
To effectively tackle Indonesia's pressing environmental and social problems, Tjoerah employs a strategic, three-pronged approach focused on co-creating sustainable solutions:
Tjoerah cultivates a unique collaborative ecosystem where empowered Indonesian individuals co-create and develop scalable, locally-driven solutions to the nation's most pressing social and environmental challenges. We strategically invest in collective action, fostering sustainable impact and building resilient communities across Indonesia. Our platform empowers local innovators to drive measurable outcomes at scale.
Ecosystem
Building
We provide dynamic platforms for convening diverse stakeholders—individuals, communities, and organizations—to foster dialogue, knowledge exchange, and collaborative actions. Through targeted events and strategic media engagement, we actively cultivate shared values and create a ecosystem dedicated to co-creating and implementing sustainable solutions.
Solution Incubation
Through our dedicated studios, we provide a robust facility for the co-design, rapid iteration, and experimentation of innovative solutions. Our team works collaboratively with our partners to incubate and refine these solutions, enabling their successful scaling and adoption to drive better outcomes for the communities.
Action
Research
Beyond providing platforms, we systematically capture and synthesize critical insights and learnings. Our research team allows us to analyze problem-solution fit, refine methodologies, and ensure our co-created solutions are continuously evaluated and iterated for their tangible and long-term impact.
Our Key Initiatives
Building upon these pillars, we are driving impactful change through key ongoing initiatives in collaboration with our partners, communities, and stakeholders.
