P-WEC provides assistances in the publishing and promotion of a Wildlife Hunting Ban (local regulation) of Kucur Village to protect the wildlife in the areas. |
P-WEC provides assistance to a sub-village of Sumberbendo to promote its local cultures and wisdoms which are supporting the environment and nature conservation. |
P-WEC holds regular lectures of nature conservation in the remote and poor villages by the forest by playing a film and giving speeches of nature conservation. |
Since nature conservation is not taught in schools, especially the remote and poor ones, as a compulsory subject; P-WEC regularly teaches nature conservation to the poor schools by the forests for free. |
P-WEC staff members become voluntary teachers in the remote schools surrounding P-WEC because those schools are lack of teachers. |
P-WEC gives scholarships to several school children of the remote and poor villages surrounding P-WEC center so they can continue to higher level of education. |
Every month, P-WEC holds a mobile library program, a program where P-WEC brings children books in a station wagon and comes to remote villages surrounding P-WEC center so that the poor children can read for free. |
P-WEC together with the locals of some remote villages by the forests develops eco-tourism and agro-tourism programs to give alternative jobs for the villagers and prevent them to destroy the forests |
P-WEC regularly holds an informal discussion of nature conservation in a program called Green Hang Out. In the program, P-WEC always invites some keynote speakers and the public including villagers to come and share about nature conservation. |
