[Draft] Women Forest Defenders supports women’s groups living around forest landscapes in South Sumatera, North Kalimantan and West Nusa Tenggara. Using the Idea-to-Market approach, participants map the ingredients their forests provide — cocoa, forest honey, kuini mango, wild guava, robusta coffee and palm sugar — and turn them into products with longer shelf life and a clear story.
Through hands-on Product Innovation sessions, each community develops, tests and brands its own prototypes. The Gastronomy Experience track then helps them host thematic dining that introduces guests to the forest, its seasons and the women who protect it.
