16 years of pushing boundaries, challenging the status quo, and most importantly: transforming to an organization that builds lasting impact. As we celebrate Kopernik’s birthday, Co-Founders Ewa Wojkowska and Toshi Nakamura reflect on how we’ve evolved from distributing technologies across 21 countries into a hub for "nature-positive" innovation.

2016 feels closer than we remember.

As we approach Kopernik’s 16th anniversary next week, we’re looking back at a year that shaped how we work today. From distributing essential technologies in the last mile, running lean experiments with communities, to collaborating with global partners.

Some things have evolved. Our commitment to evidence-based solutions and sustainability hasn’t.

When the weather becomes unpredictable, small design choices can make a big difference.

Through field testing, we’re not just looking at what works, but what truly helps farmers, saving time, energy, and reducing risk during the drying process.

Because solutions aren’t only about technology, but about whether they fit into daily realities on the ground.

Loka Inspirasi Mandiri (LIM) lahir sebagai inisiatif lanjutan dari program Wonder Women (Ibu Inspirasi) di Tuban, Jawa Timur. Berangkat dari tantangan yang dihadapi perempuan pengusaha mikro, mulai dari akses pasar, pembiayaan, hingga keberlanjutan lingkungan, LIM hadir sebagai wadah kolaboratif untuk membangun ketahanan komunitas yang berkelanjutan.

Melalui pendampingan usaha mikro, platform penjualan digital “Kios Inspirasi Mandiri”, pembelajaran antar sesama (peer-to-peer), serta upaya konservasi berbasis tanaman lokal, LIM terus bertumbuh bersama komunitas.

Kini resmi berdiri sebagai Koperasi Konsumen, LIM dikelola bersama perempuan pengusaha mikro dari program Ibu Inspirasi. Nantikan kabar dan langkah selanjutnya!

Loka Inspirasi Mandiri (LIM) was established as a continuation of the Wonder Women program in Tuban, East Java. Responding to the challenges faced by women micro-entrepreneurs—ranging from market access and financing to environmental sustainability, LIM serves as a collaborative platform to build sustainable community resilience.

Through microenterprise mentoring, the “Kios Inspirasi Mandiri” digital sales platform, peer-to-peer learning, and local plant-based conservation efforts, LIM continues to grow alongside the community.

Now officially established as a Consumer Cooperative, LIM is managed by women micro-entrepreneurs from the Wonder Women program. Stay tuned for what’s next!

Kopernik, bekerja sama dengan WRI Indonesia, mengeksplorasi potensi kulit kopi di Bener Meriah, Aceh, untuk dijadikan briket energi. Studi ini menunjukkan bahwa limbah yang selama ini kurang dimanfaatkan memiliki nilai signifikan, baik secara ekonomi maupun lingkungan.

Analisis awal menemukan bahwa unit produksi briket bisa membuka lapangan kerja lokal dan memberikan keuntungan menjanjikan, sekaligus mengurangi emisi metana hingga 98% dibanding pembuangan terbuka dan 65% dibanding pembakaran terbuka.

Temuan ini memberikan gambaran bagaimana inovasi sederhana dari limbah kopi dapat mendukung rantai nilai kopi berkelanjutan dan memperkuat ekonomi lokal di Bale Redelong dan Bener Meriah.

Kopernik, in collaboration with WRI Indonesia, explored the potential of coffee husks in Bener Meriah, Aceh, to be converted into energy briquettes. The study shows that this previously underutilized waste holds significant economic and environmental value.

Initial analysis found that a briquette production unit could create local jobs and offer promising returns, while also reducing methane emissions by up to 98% compared to open dumping and 65% compared to open burning.

These findings illustrate how simple innovations using coffee waste can support a sustainable coffee value chain and strengthen local economies in Bale Redelong and Bener Meriah.

We are very happy to continue our partnership with University of Melbourne () and Universitas Gadjah Mada (.yogyakarta) to facilitate three immersive learning sessions for the Social Policy and Development Master’s program in Yogyakarta late last year.

Marking our sixth year of partnership, we designed and led sessions on Agriculture and the Lived Realities of Smallholder Farmers in Indonesia, Pathways to Women’s Economic Inclusion, and Amplifying Climate Crisis and Gender Equity Narratives through Creative Media.

Through this program, we shared insights from our work addressing social and environmental challenges faced by underserved communities across Indonesia. The sessions also offered students valuable opportunities to strengthen their policy analysis and research skills, while building professional networks across the Asia-Pacific region.

Thank you to all students for their active engagement, and to the faculty members for their continued trust in Kopernik’s contribution. We look forward to continuing this collaboration in driving impactful and sustainable policy solutions!
