One of our main focuses for this year has been working towards rejuvenating the Sister Schools Program which was first established in 2011. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic and the preceding 2018 Earthquake in Lombok having slowed momentum in the past few years, we are steadfast in our determination to both deepen existing sister-school relations and to expand the program to other schools in Indonesia and Australia.![]()

Loosening travel restrictions have allowed us to meet directly with schools and gather valuable feedback and data to inform our strategy for further engagements. We have also welcomed the re-opening of international borders and resumption of overseas visits between Indonesia and Australia to further develop people-to-people links in support of this initiative.![]()

Pak Abu kindly donated his time to feature in our video to raise awareness about the dangers of compressor diving. This practice causes lots of pain, paralysation and death.![]()

Nick worked with the team at JARI to increase their media and communications capabilities. Some of the projects Nick supported as an Australian Volunteer included re-designing JARI’s website, making it more user-friendly, and helping with the design and implementation of several major social media campaigns, including Laut Sahabat Kita (The Ocean is Our Best Friend) drawing competition – an educational program that aims to help primary school students increase their knowledge of their local marine environments and environmental issues. ![]()

“I took on the remote volunteering assignment because I saw it as a good opportunity to remain connected with Indonesia despite the barriers posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Plus, as someone with a long-held interest in socio-environmental issues, I knew this was the right role for me,” said Nick. ![]()

“The most fulfilling aspects of the assignment was establishing new contacts and reaffirming existing connections with partners organisations and working with such a broad range of individuals. By doing this assignment, I’ve expanded my problem-solving abilities and appreciation of diverse perspectives.”
