The first prize was awared to Alisa Febriani for her idea on a water conservation campaign: The Kinanti Project challenges Jakarta’s middle and upper class to save water, everyday, in their home. The saved water could then be donated directly to those who need it, or even converted into money to fund restoration work (planting trees, make a biopore, etc). The project encourages people to change their behaviour, benefits people who don’t have access to clean water, and helps the environment at the same time.”
