Hutan Rimba Foundation was established with a simple belief:

Cities and nature must grow together.

Our Story

As urbanization accelerates, many cities face the challenge of balancing development with environmental sustainability.

While tree planting initiatives continue to grow, many lack long-term monitoring, transparent reporting, and sustainable stewardship systems.

We recognized the opportunity to build a different model.

  1. A model where technology strengthens environmental action.
  2. A model where communities become active stewards of nature.
  3. A model where environmental impact is visible, measurable, and scalable.

Today, Hutan Rimba Foundation is developing digital infrastructure that helps cities understand, monitor, fund, and grow urban nature.
