HAkA exists because Aceh's beautiful yet fragile forests need a voice. They need defenders. They need protectors. They need action. HAkA's passion and strong determination are reflected in every action taken to protect the forest and all its contents. In essence, protecting the forest and all its contents is for the well-being of humanity as well.
Vision: The preservation of the Leuser Ecosystem Area, as well as Aceh’s forests, natural landscapes, and environment, ensuring they continue to provide sustainable benefits to the community. Our work rests on three pillars: advocacy, strengthening, and monitoring.
HAkA helps communities take control of their own development and management of natural resources. We foster grassroots leadership, build local community associations for a stronger collective voice, and promote sustainable livelihoods in Aceh.
HAkA continuously monitors forest cover changes throughout the Leuser Ecosystem and Aceh using satellite imagery, drones, and field surveys. We analyze this data to guide conservation strategies, inform stakeholders, and trigger timely field actions.
