Bagaimana Pride Mengubah Proyek dan Organisasi Kami - How Pride Change Our Projects and Organization

During a site visit to Rare Alumni Fund site, I interviewed Mainul Sofyan, the Executive Director of Paramitra. I did not even realize that Paramitra already introduced biogas to the villages around Bromo-Tengger-Semeru NP but did not succeed, not before Pride. Here’s a short video of him explaining the process.

World Cup, Biogas, Fever

What is the similarity between FIFA World Cup and Biogas? Yep, that’s right. They both cause fever. Just one day after the World Cup ended, the morning after we all watched the final match between the Netherlands and Spain, I went to see the farmers who were also having fever, but it wasn’t the World Cup fever, it was biogas fever.

Kelompok Tani “Usaha Maju”, Memimpin Perubahan / Farmers Group "Usaha Maju, Leading the Change

                                  Kelompok Tani Usaha Maju II di Desa Argosari sungguh merupakan bukti dari penguatan kapasitas masyarakat dari Kampanye Pride. From zero to hero, istilah itu mungkin dapat diberikan kepada kelompok tani Usaha Maju II. Setelah mereka berhasil dengan arisan biogas yang mereka inisiasi, mereka berhasil menjelma menjadi sebuah organisasi masyarakat yang kuat dan memiliki karakter serta keahlian spesifik.

Pak Slamet dan Pak Yuli, Sang Devian Positif: Yang Berbeda, Yang Diikuti / The Positive Deviants: Different and Being Followed

Dalam sebuah komunitas, tidak pernah tidak, pasti ada seseorang yang berbeda. Baik itu dalam hal positif maupun negatif. Dalam bahasa sehari-hari, perbedaan ini disebut penyimpangan. Namun dalam ilmu sosial, penyimpangan perilaku ini disebut devian dan penyimpangan perilaku yang berdampak positif, baik terhadap orang-orang di sekitarnya maupun terhadap lingkungan tempat tinggalnya disebut dengan devian positif.   Adalah Pak Slamet, seorang petani dari Desa Argosari, yang memiliki perilaku ‘menyimpang’ dan menjadi ’early adopter’, memimpin perubahan yang fenomenal di desanya. Semuanya berawal dari kampanye Pride yang dilakukan oleh Manajer Kampanye Magiyanto dari Lembaga Paramitra Jawa Timur pada tahun 2007. Kampanye Pride yang dipimpin oleh Megi memiliki tujuan untuk mengurangi ancaman pengambilan kayu bakar dari Taman Nasional Bromo Tengger Semeru yang dilakukan oleh masyarakat.

Avoiding a Divorce? Install Biogas!

Biogas is a new method to avoid rural household conflict and other series of conflicts it might cause. If you think I’m kidding you, you’re wrong. I’m totally serious.   If you think there’s no way that could happen, let me put it this way. Rural household will be mostly in peace if they could lit the fire in the kitchen anytime they needed it. It means that they can always cook, they can always eat, and life can continue. Before the people in Argosari Village, Malang District, East Java, know biogas, they collect fuel wood every day, or at least three times a week, from morning to afternoon or buy it from fuel wood collectors for $ 1.5 – 2 for maximum 2 days usage. That is a lot of amount for them. If you’re men and you’re the head of the family, you can’t get bored to collect fuel wood, and you are not allowed to feel exhausted too!

Pride Makes Me Embarrassed!

  Mainul Sofyan, Executive Director of Paramitra reported that to me during my visit to his office in Malang, East Java on July 12, 2010. He then continued, “That is how the villagers in Argosari admitted to me some time ago after 1 year of Pride campaign”. Don’t get any idea first. What they meant was that they now feel embarrassed to collect fuel wood from the forest, unlike 3 years ago before Pride was started.

From Cattle Poop to the Source of Energy : Biogas and Energy-Saving Stoves at Malang

Sukopuro and Taji are two villages inside Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, Malang, East Java. Currently, Magiyanto (Bogor 2 cohort) and Paramitra Foundation are implementing the alumni program there. They try to continue the successful previous Pride Campaign in the four neighbor villages (Argosari, Gading Kembar, Sidomulyo, Pandansari Lor) by working with the local community and stakeholders to adopt the energy-saving stoves and biogas-plastic/biogas-kettle to reduce the fuel wood consumption and forest degradation.
