EBPP Children's 17th August Independence Day Celebration: Through the Camera of David Pu'u - by David Pu'u, September 2009

Each picture tells a story on our most wonderful day of the year, 17th August, when children from all EBPP’s 6 schools get together with parents, neighbours, siblings and visitors. We were privileged this year to have David Pu’u, Donna and friends.

 

Since 2002, Bali Dynasty Resort has kindly sponsored complete hygiene kits of soap, toothbrush, toothpaste and towel for all EBPP children and tutors AND the apples and oranges for our children’s breakfast on 17th August. Click here to read more

 

ABOUT US

 

The East Bali Poverty Project (EBPP) is a non-profit organisation established in 1998 by a British resident of Bali after an appeal for help by an isolated 7,200Ha mountain village, forgotten by time and progress. Participatory community surveys in 1998 with 1,056 of the 3,000 families in 19 sub-villages revealed thousands of people living in abject poverty without water, sanitation, roads, schools, health facilities and electricity. Illiteracy was up to 100%. Malnutrition and iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) were endemic, iodine being the essential nutrient for healthy child births, brain and body development. When interviewed in November 1998 to determine their priorities if EBPP could help, over 1,000 families requested children's education as a foundation for a better future. An inspiring and productive collaboration then began with the most disadvantaged communities.  From education we have grown into programs which harness human and natural resources for mutual benefit to improve living ecosystems, provide sustainable food sources for thousands of people, provide sustainable livelihoods for the present and future, and ensure the preservation of the local environment and ecosystems through our various environmental initiatives.  With the philosophy of “helping people to help themselves”, all programmes are designed as models that can be replicated, and executed by local people who directly transfer knowledge and appropriate technology within their communities.
