Sustainability
Our Commitment
Our Commitment to Sustainability:
- Amanjiwo has created a cultural platform to enhance young people's knowledge of what it means to be green. Inviting children growing up in the natural environment of Borobudur to learn to grow nutritious food more responsibly, Amanjiwo’s sustainability ambassador and long-time team member, Bapak Hendri, runs the sessions, which are often attended by villagers in the area. Activities include learning how to avoid littering, plastic reduction, inspiring the use of alternative reusable materials, and planting tree seedlings on Menoreh Hills.
- Amanjiwo works closely with its neighbouring communities to restore previously forested areas around the Unesco-protected Borobudur temple. The reforestation and rewilding of these areas provides a critical buffer zone between agricultural lands and the surrounding forest. These pastures are being replanted with indigenous trees and shrubs that are native to the region.
- The resort's organic composting system converts waste into nutrient-rich organic matter, which is used in the property’s gardens as part of a closed-loop. As a result, the worm population is increasing, which is a positive sign of improved soil health.
- The resort has also built wild-bee accommodation to attract more of this important species, and planted flower bushes across the property to boost biodiversity.
