Strategic Framework
Based on the rigorous analysis of the
problems described above, KPS has formulated the following strategic
framework for the solution.
VISION:
Natural ecosystems free of plastic waste.
VALUES:
1. We will promote zero plastic-waste lifestyle
at domestic and public levels. Due to this, we will support any
effort for removing or at least reducing, reusing, recycling, and
upcycling plastic waste and other types of waste in a more
sustainable way.
2. We will substantially involve female groups in our policy-making
and management processes. Persistent prejudices and stereotypes,
primarily in rural areas, lead these groups to gender inequality,
disempowerment, marginalization, and even gender-based violence.
3. We will support LGBTQIA+ communities especially their youth, as
they increasingly suffer from many forms of violence and
discrimination from all people and governments who treat them worse
than waste.
MISSION:
We are a girls' environmental NGO working in Indonesia. We
aim to promote good plastic governance in
order to reduce poverty while protecting the nature. We do this by
enhancing the capacity of girls’ groups within poor communities
living in rural, urban, and coastal areas to reduce, reuse, recycle,
and upcycle plastic waste in a more sustainable way.
OVERALL GOAL (2017 – 2027):
To end poverty while protecting the natural ecosystems at rural,
urban, and coastal areas by facilitating the poor to manage organic
farms on pots upcycled from waste plastic bags and bottles, and by
upcycling plastic waste and other types of waste into best-selling
crafts and building materials.
PRIMARY TARGET GROUPS:
KPS works for and together with the girls’ groups within poor
communities who are mostly vulnerable to the adverse impacts of
plastic waste, primarily:
• The poor communities who live in rural areas, especially the
landless and small farmers. Through their girls’ groups, they will
be facilitated to protect the terrestrial ecosystems, especially
river basins, from plastic waste pollution while freeing themselves
from the snares of poverty by smartly and sustainably managing the
plastic waste to generate their income.
• The poor communities who live in urban slums especially the
homeless. Through their girls’ groups, they will be facilitated to
protect the urban areas from plastic waste pollution while freeing
themselves from the snares of poverty by smartly and sustainably
managing the plastic waste to generate their income.
• The poor communities who live in coastal areas especially the
artisanal fishers who struggle to survive by fishing applying simple
and traditional tools. Through their girls’ groups, they will be
facilitated to protect marine ecosystems, especially mangroves and
coral reefs, from plastic waste pollution while freeing themselves
from the snares of poverty by smartly and sustainably managing the
plastic waste to generate their income.
STRATEGIC PROGRAMS:
In order to achieve its overall goal, KPS and all its stakeholders
have formulated two strategic programs, as follows:
Organic mushroom farming on waste
plastic bags and buckets managed by our beneficiaries.
1. Organic Farming on Waste Plastic Bottles
& Bags
In this program, through the girls’ groups, we facilitate the poor
communities living in rural, urban, and coastal areas to organically
farm mushrooms and bean sprout on pots upcycled from waste plastic
bags and bottles. They can sell the harvest to generate their income
and partly for self consumption to enhance their nutrition.
When the plastic pots are brittle and can no longer be used for
farming, we facilitate the communities to recycle them into better
and cheaper bricks and pavers for sale to boost their income or for
self use to enhance their huts.
Organic bean-sprout farming on waste
plastic bottles managed by our beneficiaries.
2. Developing Waste Upcycle Centers
In this program, through the girls’ groups, we facilitate the poor
communities living in rural, urban, and coastal areas to raise their
income in a sustainable way by establishing and managing waste
upcycle centers and commercially upcycle waste plastic bottles into
sofas, stools, multipurpose racks, handbags, and jewelry (rings,
bracelets, necklaces, earrings), and upcycle waste plastic bags into
bags, baskets, rugs, pillows, and slippers.
