Core
Programs

Six mutually reinforcing initiatives — from soil, water, and waste to people.

Flagship Program

GEMAR

Water Saving Movement

Kampung 3G's greatest innovation: channeling as much rainwater as possible into the ground through biopores of various sizes, injection wells, and absorption trenches — massively, as a social movement.
