A Science-Driven Mangrove
For nearly four decades, BUMWI has managed one of the world’s most significant mangrove landscapes in Teluk Bintuni, Papua Barat.
Today, we are transforming that experience into a science-driven platform for ecosystem stewardship—integrating climate action, biodiversity
conservation, community partnership, and high-integrity blue carbon development.
Our ambition is to demonstrate that healthy mangrove ecosystems can generate lasting value for nature, society, and future generations.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Stewardship Creates Value
We believe the greatest value of a mangrove forest is not what can be extracted from it.
Its greatest value lies in the essential services it continues to provide—storing carbon, protecting coastlines, sustaining biodiversity, supporting fisheries, regulating water systems, and creating opportunities for surrounding communities.
Our responsibility is to ensure these benefits continue to grow through responsible stewardship, scientific management, and long-term collaboration.
