As an international destination, the renowned island of Bali never fails to captivate visitors with wonderful natural attractions and unique culture. Bali has been an epitome of ‘paradise’ to many tourists. But beyond the exoticized image of Bali lies a deeply entrenched tradition that keeps the Balinese cultural and social fabric intact. It runs in all practices of the Balinese that it hardly escapes the curious
and sensitive gaze of any tourist. This is the Tri Hita Karana, the three sources of natural aesthetics according to the Balinese; a “human centered design” of harmonious relationships with people to people, people with nature, and people with the divine.
Inspired by the Tri Hita Karana, our local community partners in Bali are collaborating with WOW Bali International Initiative to share its vision of a Global Banjar, where visitors from all over the world can come to Bali to experience a sustainable lifestyle and learning about one of the world’s living ancient cultures in the pristine ecological villages of Bali. We designed ‘WOW Paradise’ authentic experience to share ecological and cultural practices by the Balinese to inspire you to continue living a sustainable lifestyle long after your visit here in ‘paradise’.
In learning about the traditional processes of the Tri Hita Karana, which ties with the whole Balinese way of living, you will be actively participating in the preservation of ‘Old Bali’ and the enduring sense of ‘paradise’ that it evokes.
WOW experiences are guaranteed to make you more dynamic in living and relating harmoniously with nature. Our award winning team from “Wow Paradise”, WOW Bali International 'Sustainable Dynamic' Collective and International Sustainability and Wellness Initiative, will show you the building blocks of experiences that are connected to our human relationships, our ecology, and the divine.
Brief outline of WOW Bali progress in "Sustainable Dynamic" Development for the year of 201-2014. Based on Ms. Kim Calderon, Academic Researcher for The Development Academy of The Philippines.
Wow Bali is an internationally recognized program on regenerative sustainable development that started in 2012 in Bali, Indonesia. WOW Bali Co-founder and Creative Director Hai Dai Nguyen developed the Sustainable Dynamics Framework based on his case studies of grassroots sustainable community-based ecotourism best practices in Bali, Indonesia since 2008. “Sustainable Dynamics” are the forces and properties that enable a community to coexist and operate interdependently.
WOW Bali program and projects are sustained through mutualism and creative economics with its partners, allowing for the regeneration of new initiatives. The program used to operate under the Yayasan Tri Hita Karana Bali, an organization founded on the philosophy of Tri Hita Karana—the core of the Balinese belief system, which traces the “causes of goodness” on a harmonious relationship between God, people, and nature. Tri Hita Karana Bali exists to educate both adults and children about organic farming practices. Through its various projects and workshops, it is able to sustain its advocacy towards preserving the Bali culture and raise environmental awareness through the principles of permaculture.
In 2015, after three years of developing sustainable local initiatives, WOW Bali evolved from being a program into its very own Yayasan Global Banjar Internasional with the support of its long-term local partners.

WOW Bali’s International Initiative for Sustainability and Wellness presents “Dynamic Wellness.”
After 15 years of extensive research, we found that it is important to “collectively sustain” at the community level in order to prevent the loss of biodiversity; the massive
extinctions happening in our ecological environment. The approach has been internationally recognized as “HOLISTIC PARTICIPATORY” model, which has been
academically case studied as a “Dynamic Wellness” solution;recently in 2014 presented as “the top sustainability and wellness framework in South East Asia.”
Ecologically conscious stakeholders have been brought together via mutualism and creative economics through active exchanges to share resources that can
exponentially regenerate through “Sustainable Tourism.” In this WOW presentation, we will share the evolution of our research and development—a combination of fusing
ancient cultures with modern methodologies, shifting perceptions towards dynamic well being through a “reverse osmosis” in the building blocks of experiences. This immediate astounding change will provide new opportunities to participate and for you to initiate positive actions towards a more fruitful abundance in living dynamic relationships. This is the real Wow Paradise!

WOW Bali represents at Indonesia’s first FEALAC Youth Conference!
WOW Bali is heading to Bandung, Indonesia to present at first Indonesia Forum on East Asia and Latin America Cooperation (FEALAC) Youth Conference (IFYC) on 18–22 September 2015.
It is a privilege to present our annual report to you. We have had another incredible year of Change Agent Magic - contributing our special puzzle piece to crime prevention and diversion in our beautiful South Africa.
It moves my soul to experience how those we journey with allow themselves the experience of awakening to more of themselves and a deeper sense of purpose. I often say to our students:
>>Do not underestimate the ripple of your awakening<<
We experience its heartwarming impact on how we live and (un)learn together. A living and (un)learning that is authentic and kind… that is generous… that is honest and transparent… that stretches and encourages… that heals our wounds and edits our old stories. It is a living and (un)learning that allows the student their own unique path… also the tough patches! There is nothing more liberating than >>walking the plank<< of a perception!
Come with me. Experience the unique unfolding of a Change Agent Journey. Students awakening to their inner coach, healer and guide and firing up their entrepreneurial spirit all while assisting and guiding others to do the same.

Meeting briefing-notes- Cultural-Solidarity for WOW BaturHai Dai
Highlights of Exchange:
1. Mr. Hai Dai shared to the group that he was invited by the ASEAN Youth Leadership Congress to be a Guest Speaker for the Panel Session ASEAN Cultural Solidarity while Jaz Linh was invited in the Panel on ASEAN Economic Security. The Congress will be held in the Philippines on 1-2 December 2016.
2. Cultural Solidarity in the ASEAN Region is a huge challenge and WOW Bali is privileged to contribute to international discussions pertaining to the matter because of our “WOW Dynamics” Human Biodiversity Framework based on Tri Hita Karana undersanding for a “Lean Culture”.
Even within one’s own culture, one experiences problems, which makes bridging with people from other cultures in the ASEAN more challenging. The organizers believe that WOW Bali can speak on the topic as he approaches the subject from the “Human Biodiversity” Framework. This means that at the level of human biodiversity, we are all the same.
3. To facilitate connections with other cultures, we need to have solidarity within our own culture. Once your own cultural solidarity is strong, it’s easier to bridge into other culture. Cultural solidaity in practice can be exemplified in the following:

The 3H Summer School program is an initiative using Auroville and its outstanding experience in human unity & sustainable living as a platform for the learning and personal growth of students from around the world. The program is based on the 3H approach that nurtures hands (skills), head (competencies) and heart (inner capacities) of all participants. The 3H Summer School 2014 served as an experimental educational laboratory, connecting theory and application with core human values such as justice, compassion and dignity around the lead theme of regenerative design, closed loop systems and responsible consumption.
Twenty-two students and young professionals participated in this three-week program held from 21st July to 10th August 2014 at Auroville International Township in Tamil Nadu, India. Participants came from various Indian and foreign colleges and each one brought his or her specific strengths and skills into the workshop, contributing to a great and transformational learning experience, which we hope they will always carry in good memories with them.

We want to apply celebrations as transformative energetics of cultures via soft power diplomacy for the people. We believe that once we connect ourselves at the energetic level; especially via celebrations, the pinnacle of high consciousness, we can shift our perceptions understandings; therefore connects at a different level decisions making. This research may possibly inspire cultures away from the current logical linear patterns that tends to create separations and deeper into the emotional intelligence that naturally welcome possibilities that it is easy to do and simple to share towards a more sustainable world.

Welcome to “WOW Paradise” featuring Bali’s ONLY Academic Cultural, Ecological and Adventure Tours. We are showcased at Indonesia’s BEST organic exotic flower farm and TOP sustainable tourism facilities.
Your Eco-Adventures will be full of fun and regenerative information supported by a “Sustainable Dynamic Collective”— dedicated in preservation of a sustainable Bali. From Bali’s oldest Cultural Ethic University and leading Sustainable Development NGOs to accommodation offerings and Eco-Activities at leading Sustainable Tourism facilities and organizations, we aim to create the most dynamic experience for your paradise adventure.
Our ‘Sustainable Dynamic’ Collective has been created to ensure that you have the most effective and affective ecological experiences while you are here in paradise. Wow Paradise will help you share our genuine efforts in sustainability and the regeneration of “paradise within,” with the environment and the divine.
In learning traditional Balinese processes of Tri Hita Karana, you will be actively participating in the preservation of ‘Old Bali’ and take away the sustainable and cultural lifestyle for which it has been renowned Internationally as “PARADISE.”
These collections are about our ‘Celebration Circle.’ It has been our personal ‘initiation’ into the mystery of creating a jewelry collection that goes beyond what we traditionally think as ‘work of art.’
We intensively research the reasons for creating such a jewelry collections. We even moved our family to a remote village, next to Taman Ayun Temple (recently selected as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO) to live among the local people. We wanted to experience first hand the sacredness of such a creative culture. This process has helped us to better understand the meaning of living and being in ‘illumination.’
We ended up with a collection that went beyond how jewelry is perceived to us! Beyond the deliverables of creative products, we wanted to share ‘ancient fragments’ of wisdom from a culture such as Bali and philosophies of the ancient. In short, we landed through a ‘strengthening’ to a place of ‘knowing,’ hence our collections is called ‘Moments in Expressions.’
We found the root word of ‘jewelry’ leads back to the Latin word ‘jocale,’ meaning plaything; this definitely changed our creative processes. ‘Moment of Expression’ collections hope to influence your expressive moments through contagious enthusiasm. We believe through creative actions of creating your personal adornment; with you as the masterpiece, will affirm your intent for a more dynamic to live and play.
We hope by initiating playful and sagacious meanings via our
jewelry collections, it will create and intensify new expressions for living in celebrations.
The initiation of your celebrations and/or just in your every day living can begin with ‘Moments in Expression.’ We wish to affirm your intentions with inspirational ‘playthings’ for those adorn moments to inspire living each moment as an expressive ‘living art!’
Love and Light,
Tracy Christine Nguyen
This presentation is the start of WOW Bali’s research and development for a creative autonomous exchange that can be utilized to connect the understanding of love via creativity and visa versa. We hope to go beyond the lump sum and understanding of what “love and creativity” means from just the emotional context. Unless we can develop one of the greatest emotions of our lives so that it can be “energy for motion, it will creates blockage to sustain within.
Our goals are the define the alikeness and via its similarities and differences that connect us at the human level. This sustainable human development processes of “Love and Creativity” seemed to be the backbone of sustainable development for a more holistic participatory approach. Please help share and create new dialogs.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W.

Wow Bali International Sustainable and Wellness Initiative
1. WOW Bali’s International Sustainability and Wellness Initiative
As an international destination, the renowned island of Bali never fails to captivate visitors
with wonderful natural attractions and unique culture. Bali has been an epitome of ‘paradise’ to many
tourists. But beyond the exoticized image of Bali lies a deeply entrenched tradition that keeps the Balinese
cultural and social fabric intact. It runs in all practices of the Balinese that it hardly escapes the curious
and sensitive gaze of any tourist. This is the Tri Hita Karana, the three sources of natural aesthetics
according to the Balinese; a “human centered design” of harmonious relationships with people to people,
people with nature, and people with the divine.
Inspired by the Tri Hita Karana, our local community partners in Bali are collaborating with
WOW Bali International Initiative to share its vision of a Global Banjar, where visitors from all
over the world can come to Bali to experience a sustainable lifestyle and learning about one of
the world’s living ancient cultures in the pristine ecological villages of Bali. We designed
‘WOW Paradise’ authentic experience to share ecological and cultural practices by the Balinese to
inspire you to continue living a sustainable lifestyle long after your visit here in ‘paradise’.
In learning about the traditional processes of the Tri Hita Karana, which ties with the whole
Balinese way of living, you will be actively participating in the preservation of ‘Old Bali’
and the enduring sense of ‘paradise’ that it evokes.
WOW experiences are guaranteed to make you more dynamic in living and relating harmoniously
with nature. Our award winning team from “Wow Paradise”, WOW Bali International Collective,
and International Sustainability and Wellness Initiative, will show you the building blocks of
experiences that are connected to our human relationships, our ecology, and the divine.

National Alliance of Media Arts and Culture (NAMAC.org) and applied for UNESCO’s Global Digital
Ambassadors in 2006; twenty of the TOP digital New Media students, selected over 29 different countries.
4. This is where technology and social media play an
important role in communications exchange and
the promotions of our sustainable dynamics.
In early 2014, Wow Bali International
Initiative was selected as the TOP Sustainability
and Wellness framework here in South East Asia,
with its Systemic Holistic Interdisciplinary
Participatory model for a “sustainable dynamic”
collaborations between organizations within our
naturally regenerative community.
Based on Balinese cultural dynamics of Tri Hita
Karana, a human centered design based on a
systemic holistic interdisciplinary participatory
model is a natural engagement for communities
to participate in sustainable development most
effectively. This allows us to visualize the environ-
ment conditions and opposing forces that must be
considered within dynamic collaborations and
effectively among collaborators.
The integrated elementals are recognized
within each stakeholder’s forces and properties; this
helps us leverage the sharing of our resources and
expertise via our natural evolutionary design system.
These conditions ensure the promise of success within
a truly sustainable and regenerative community.
The fusion of development via mutualism and
the sharing of resources through creative economics
are essential to the success dynamics of ‘quick start’
and/or ‘long term’ development. Active learning via
creative directed actions; a creative autonomy in
sharing is our greatest exchange for sustainability.
Wow Bali’s Founder shared “Sustainable Dynamics” at APEC 2013
with UNTWO on “the importance of holistic participatory in sustainable
development.” Our best practices have also been presented at APEC,
Asian Productivity Organization, ICRAFF, FEALAC International Conferences
in 2013-2014. ‘Sustainable Dynamic’ has been case studied by IDEO.org by
MBAs from Presidio Graduate School, the ASEAN Centre for Biodiversity,
and the Development Academy of the Philippines.
