About Us
Yayasan Pelestarian Alam dan Sentra Edukasi Berkelanjutan (PASEBAN), also known as the Foundation of Centre for Nature Conservation and Sustainable Learning (CNCSL), is committed to advancing biodiversity conservation and sustainability education through Nature-Based Solutions. Established on 28 July 2024, PASEBAN builds upon the legacy of Arista Montana Organic Farm, which has been active in organic farming and landscape restoration since 2009. Situated in Mega Mendung, West Java, the foundation leverages innovative approaches to ecosystem restoration, combining organic farming, conservation, and education to foster a sustainable relationship between nature and local communities.
History
The PASEBAN Foundation’s roots trace back to 2009, when Arista Montana Organic Farm was established in Mega Mendung, West Java. Initially focused on non-invasive organic farming, the farm played a key role in landscape restoration and sustainable agriculture. Over the years, it expanded its efforts to include reforestation, biodiversity conservation, and the establishment of an in-situ aviary, which successfully bred and rehabilitated endangered bird species. These early initiatives laid the foundation for PASEBAN’s broader mission of environmental stewardship and community engagement.
