Stakeholders’
“Active”
Initiatives
.
In our presentation to the Chancellor, deans and top faculty of Dwijendra University
during the case study being carried out by the ASEAN Center for Biodiversity, Ms.
Kim Calderon, academic researcher from the Development Academy of the
Philippines and a delegate in the intergovernmental Asian Productivity Organization
Agrotourism Workshop who is currently doing research on sustainability, “WOW
Sustainable Dynamics is not just one of the top sustainable projects, but the best
project in sustainability” that she came across in her research here in Southeast
Asia.
WOW sustainable and wellness initiative is developed at a regional level here in Bali
from Sayan to Penjangan; the largest and most prosperous area in Gianyar Region,
just outside the internationally-acclaimed village of Ubud. WOW Initiatives are
composed of the following stakeholders and efforts:
.
Tri Hita Karana Bali Yayasan (NGO) .
Sustainability development in the areas of
permaculture community projects; based on
Hindu philosophy for human centered designs
supporting the harmony with nature and god. Tri
Hita Karana is WOW Bali’s local sponsor. It
supports Wow Bali projects in the area of
polyculture development.
Mansion Ubud .
Hotel and resort in Sayan Road considered to be in
the “five star” hotel and resort row, which includes
resorts such as the Four Season. The Mansion Hotel is
dedicated to WOW Dynamic Wellness vision and
alternative eco-development in the areas of “new
celebrations,” “edutainment” conferences, services,
tours and clients’ activities. The Mansion Ubud is also
home of WOW Bali projects through mutualism and
collaboration in our “dynamic wellness” development
and So-Ho Entrepreneur development.
5. WOW BALI’S INTERNATIONAL INTIATIVE FOR SUSTAINABILITY AND WELLNESS
Dwijendra University .
Oldest “professional ethics” University here in Bali
offering programs from Kinder to Tertiary Level
(Bachelor). Dwijendra University is collaborating
with WOW to implement our “Human Biodiversity”
framework within its curriculum and to co-create
academic case studies for the framework to
encourage International conferences for the
regenerations of our “Human Biodiversity”
Framework. This will include hosting and inviting
Internationally recognized Universities here in Indonesia, ICRAFF
academics/ecosystems services communities; plus ASEAN countries, its inter-
government organizations and academia. .
Kerta Generations .
Kerta Village has offered WOW 115
hectares of land for the development of
WOW Eco Village that features the WOW
House and polyculture development,
including the regeneration of
permaculture practices via the Kerta
Generations, university youths of Kerta
village. Kerta village, 30 minutes away
from Ubud is one of three certified
organic sites in Indonesia that is using
biogas for house hold energy and bio-
fertilizer for all farming practices.
Our stakeholders via this collaboration are Tri Hita Karana Yayasan for the
development of polyculture programs and The Mansion for support in ecotourism;
plus educational resources from Dwijendra University. This will be the largest
regional development formed through a collaborative effort for sustainable
community’s development that is directed and engaged in by the Generations
youths of this village.
Sekar Bumi Farm .
This is one of Indonesia’s largest
organic exotic flower farm and
orchard located in Gianyar Regency of
Bali. Sekar Bumi Tropical Farm is a
home of WOW Bali’s ecological
program. Programs includes Sekar
Bumi’s tropical farm education village
tours, floral arrangement, Eco-camp
with a dynamic playground, trekking,
cycling, flying fox (up to 500m), and
paint ball course.
Sekar Bumi and WOW’s stakeholders are in partnership to create a sustainable eco
village for future regenerations of “sustainable dynamic” development and academic
exchanges such as monthly/quarterly intensive practicum. Please refer to the
following link for more information on the Cultural Wealth Project in partnership

cultural-wealth-development.
Bindu Village .
Bindu village and its land offering of
five hectare for WOW sustainable
development is the perfect village to
exemplify WOW “Human Biodiversity”
framework. Through our
International stakeholders and
partners, including our partnership
with ASEAN countries, this will be the
perfect eco-tourism development
showcasing “holistic participation.”
Few minutes way from the Mansion
Resort in Ubud, visitors from our WOW International Network will experience best of
both “sustainable” worlds on their trip to Bali: a five-star eco-resort and holistic and
sustainable eco-village.
Bindu’s dedication to showcasing our internationally recognized “human
biodiversity” framework and how it can regenerate an eco-lifestyle and holistic
participation will be the most dynamic efforts in sustainability.

Sustainable Dynamic Tour
WOW Sustainable Dynamics International Collaboration Initiative is one of the
projects of WOW Team based in Bali, Indonesia. This project aims to set out on tour
to eleven (11) countries in Southeast Asia (Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia,
Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and Timor
Leste) to share dynamic wellness and sustainability with cultural communities and
stakeholders (government, nonprofit NGOs, academia, and business). Through the
tour, we intend to open opportunities for exchange and co-develop a social holistic
(SO-HO) participatory framework we call “Sustainable Dynamics”. With the case
study conducted for the ASEAN Center for Biodiversity, this framework is currently
being readapted to be the “Human Biodiversity Model”. The whole tour will be
documented through social media, photographs, sound recording and film, in effect
generating creative edutainment contents for a Mobile Network Technology
applications to facilitate new media active learning by the public.
