THE DEVASTATING IMPACTS OF FLOODS AND DROUGHTS ACROSS THE CONTINENT HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY THREATENED FOOD SECURITY AND SOCIAL STABILITY. SOUTHEAST ASIAN VOICES AND SOLUTIONS TO CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION AND ADAPTATION ARE LARGELY ABSENT OWING TO SYSTEMIC CAUSES AND MARKET PRESSURES, WITH GLOBAL NORTH NARRATIVES ON CLIMATE CHANGE TAKING PRECEDENCE IN SOUTHEAST ASIA'S MEDIA ECOSYSTEM. THE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN RBF AND CGSP AIMS TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM BY CENTERING LOCAL VOICES, LOCAL EXPERTS, AND LOCAL SOLUTIONS IN THE DISCOURSE ABOUT SUSTAINABILITY AND DEVELOPMENT THAT ARE NOW VITALLY IMPORTANT IN SOUTHEAST ASIA. 109885 AMPLIFYING IPLC VOICES IN THE NICKEL MINING DISCOURSE IN INDONESIA - WITH ALMOST 60% OF THE WORLD'S NICKEL RESERVES, INDONESIA IS AT THE CENTER OF THE GLOBAL COMPETITION FOR CRITICAL MINERALS. WHILE ALL THAT NICKEL WILL HELP USHER IN A NEW ERA OF CLEANER ENERGY AND TRANSPORTATION, OUT OF SIGHT, MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE BEARING AN ENORMOUS COST TO MAKE THIS TRANSITION POSSIBLE. NICKEL EXTRACTION IS A VIOLENT PROCESS THAT EXACTS MASSIVE COSTS ON THE ENVIRONMENT AND THE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO LIVE NEAR THE MINES. WHILE THERE IS GROWING AWARENESS OF THE ECOLOGICAL AND HEALTH DAMAGE WROUGHT BY CRITICAL RESOURCE MINING, KEY VOICES ARE TOO OFTEN MISSING FROM THE DISCOURSE. MINING COMPANIES, THE GOVERNMENT, AND EVEN AUTOMAKERS HAVE BEEN VERY EFFECTIVE IN SHAPING THE NARRATIVES, PARTICULARLY IN THE NEWS MEDIA, AROUND NICKEL MINING IN INDONESIA. RARELY, THOUGH, DO THE PERSPECTIVES OF PEOPLE WHO LIVE CLOSEST TO THE MINES RECEIVE MEANINGFUL COVERAGE. THIS INITIATIVE AIMS TO CHANGE. 580320 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 7 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 4 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 MI X MELINDA KASPER 3105646054 625 KENMOOR AVENUE SUITE 301 GRAND RAPIDS MI 49546 ERIC OLANDER PRESIDENT 1.00 X X 113901 0 0 CHRISTIAN GERAUD NEEMA BYAMUNGU SECRETARY 1.00 X X 53861 0 0 MATTHEW MCGARVEY TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 DAVID HOFFMAN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 167762 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1067972 1067972 MEMBERSHIP FEES 900099 114212 114212 114212 2520 -2520 -2520 -2520 MISCELLANEOUS REVENU 900099 7973 7973 7973 1187637 119665 0 0 X 166952 132855 22788 11309 22339 20541 1798 8651 7353 865 433 412694 364842 47852 670 50 620 15829 8620 7209 3950 3950 26176 19395 6055 726 417 417 OTHER GRANT EXPENSES 31253 29591 1662 SUBSCRIPTIONS 21012 15811 5201 BANK CHARGES AND PROCES 9684 9684 TRAINING 3861 10 3851 1632 1376 256 725120 580320 130534 14266 760103 970905 305358 50000 4197 2520 2082 812623 1282542 1726 9128 1726 9128 X 600244 868605 210653 404809 810897 1273414 812623 1282542 462517 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 154863 442404 660000 1067972 2325239 51211 90052 102809 107103 114212 465387 51211 244915 545213 767103 1182184 2790626 151246 310557 570861 475000 1507664 0 151246 310557 570861 475000 1507664 1282962 7973 7973 51211 244915 545213 767103 1190157 2798599 0.45840 0.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 1187637 0 1187637 0 1187637 725120 0 725120 0 725120 SCHEDULE D, PART X, LINE 2 THE ORGANIZATION IS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT IS EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.
