FWI

The focus of FWI is on regions with extensive natural forests that are threatened by extractive industry. Currently, we operate in East Kalimantan, Maluku, North Maluku, Papua, and West Papua... As a dynamic institution, FWI continues to adapt to the changing needs and trends of the times. On July 18, 2014, FWI's organizational form reverted to Association, after having evolved from a work program to a foundation-style independent organization. It is believed that this change will enable organizational components to contribute to the realization of FWI's vision, mission, and priority programs... As a form of support for sustainable forest management, FWI also promotes forest management practices that have been demonstrated to maintain forest sustainability in a given region. Protect and recognize the rights of indigenous peoples, whether through forest management practices incorporating indigenous peoples' local systems of knowledge or through government forest protection policies.
