Location Bandung, West
Java
Theme Environment, Education
Date 08 – 21 August 2018
No. Vols 12
Project Supporting local organization in river conservation.
Background
Citarum is the longest river in West Java runs over 300 kilometres from the Wayang Mountain to the Java Sea. There are 30 million people rely on the water source for agriculture, water supply, fishery, industry, sewerage, electricity, etc. However, unregulated factory growth since the area’s rapid industrialisation in the 1980s has choked the Citarum with both human and industrial waste. The 5 million people who lived in the river basin are directly affected. Over 200 textile factories line the river banks and contaminate the river with lead, mercury, arsenic and other toxins, changing its colour and lending the area an acrid odour. Moreover, the river is also polluted and filed with trash such plastic, styrofoam, even dead animals. In cooperation with Bening Saguling foundation working in Citarum river basin and Saguling basin since 2015, GREAT started the IVS intervention since 2017. We work together in the community development program through education, social, economic, and environment conservation. By using the trash as their potential product for making “TRASH BANK”, they also take advantage from the water hyacinth weed (pollutant plant) by making handicraft from that plant. Now, the community have their own forest in the river basin where they conserve some variant of bamboo trees and other local trees. Their home based has become a learning centre for garbage management and water hyacinth handicraft.
Aims
To support the foundation program in environment conservation, social and education
To promote the foundation as a learning centre for environment conservation

To spread out the idea of voluntary service and international workcamp among the local people
To raise awareness about the garbage problem in Citarum river

Long- Middle-Term Volunteering (LMTV)
Introduction LMTV is international volunteering program where volunteers do their service in a project of 2-4
months (middle term) or more than 4 months (long term). LMTV is mostly dedicated to do
voluntary service for the sustainability of the project by supporting and collaborating with local
partners and/or local communities in planning, preparing, implementing and evaluating their
activities. This activity is more of individual placement rather than in group. Sometimes there are
2 to 3 volunteers in one project. LMTV projects give opportunity for volunteers to experience, to
learn new things, to interact with local people & culture for volunteers to develop personal&
social skills. Many of GREAT LMTV project sites are also workcamp project sites. This is because
GREAT acknowledged the important of combining both types of volunteering to be applied in
one project site to achieve the goals of each IVS project.
Common Aspects of LMTV Volunteers will stay in one place within or nearby the project site
Volunteers who take long term project have a chance to change and exprience another GREAT
project
Volunteers must provide their own insurance during their service
