PONDOK KREATIF BUNGA JABE
We are currently working mainly on our #SAVEKARIMUNJAWA movement. But you can find some of our other projects here.
Bunga Jabe is our self-built homestay on Kemujan, Karimunjawa Islands. Our guests can stay here in huts built from natural products, enjoy our own beach and book snorkelling adventures or batik and coconut oil workshops.
The idea of our organisation was born right here and until now the place also serves us as a working and meeting place.

Another threat to our marine ecosystem are huge cargo ships that take shortcuts near our coral reefs, especially in stormy weather, and sometimes destroy and crash them. Together with local fishermen, we hold these ships and companies accountable, fight for compensation and try to raise awareness about the problem.

Protection of our coral reefs
Therefore, we were also part of the documentary Sexy Killers, which dealt in particular with the problems of the coal industry in Indonesia. You can find the documentary on YouTube or on the following link.
Batik Karimunjawa
batik_karimunjawa
We make our own batik from recycled and sustainable products. In the traditional Indonesian way, we use wax, which we apply to the fabric either with self-made stamps or by hand. With the help of the wax, certain areas are left out of the dyeing process and unique patterns and motifs are created. This kind of batik has a high cultural value in Indonesia and there are many important steps that lead to the final product.
We have recently started dyeing our fabrics with natural colours.

We are offering batik workshops and are selling our products with the unique batik motifs.
Don´t hesitate to contact us ;)
Recently we auctioned the following batik artwork for 1 500 000,- IDR.
35% of the money will be used for our movement #SAVEKARIMUNJAWA.
