CTC Office Recycling Project

In implementing this program, CTC willbe separating waste into 3 categories:

/ / 0 3

Each office space is now equipped with a set ofthree waste bins. One for normal waste, one forrecycling paper-like materials, and one for recyclingplastic and other materials. The bins for recyclingare designated with signs.

Bali Recycling Company works off of a businessmodel where they try to sell/re-use the waste theycollected and CTC receives a refund for the wastethey can re-use. To do this, the recycled waste mustbe clean (i.e. no left over food, no oils, no liquids,etc.)

CTC hope that this program can contribute to waste

management and serve as a role-model for otherplaces around Sanur!

Normal waste:• Food waste• Organic waste• Any wet waste

Dry Waste - Paper• Paper• Cardboard• Cartons

Dry Waste - Plastic andOthers

• Plastic• Glass• Styrofoam• Aluminum• Metal

Development of Educational Panels for Banda Islands

CTC have completed the development of educational panel poster and roll up banners for BandaIslands. The panels is aimed to support outreach effort for general public, particularly touristsand researchers visiting Banda Islands. The six panel tells the wealth of banda islands, in itshistory, geology, people, culture, tradition, and especially the marine biodiversity. The panels arealso produced in a portable roll up banner version, enabling the materials to be used for outreachactivities.

Art from Plastic Waste: CTC Whale Project

CTC, inspired its chairman of the board of trustees, George S. Tahija, launched a project thatwould create art from plastic waste, dubbed: The CTC Whale Project. This project aims to createa whole actual size of a blue whale project using plastic waste, particularly waste plastic waterbottle that can easily be found littered anywhere in the archipelago. Once made, the giant whalewill be used for educational purpose, to introduce marine mammals that are part of the giantweb of marine biodiversity, as well as to inspire communities, particularly children, regarding thesustainable use of plastic.

/ / 0 6

In creating this art, CTC works in partnershipwith a renowned Bali based trash artist,I Made Muliana, or known as “Bayak”.Not long after CTC commissioned Bayakto produce the art, he started developinga mock up as can be seen in the picturebelow. Bayak is a unique artist who is verypassionate to use waste to create his piecesof art. He took the liberty to manifest theidealism of nature conservation with hiscreation.

He commenced the work by collecting the plastic at waste depot in Pejeng, Kintamani. Half ofthe ‘whale’s body has then covered by the plastic. After some patching, painting and refining thework, the whale has finally finished in early December. Bayak’s idealism has directed him into thebig work of making the pattern of the whale with an iron, something that could easily substitutedby styrofoam. According to Bayak, using the foam could be easy but it is against his will to reducethe use of plastic.

THE CORAL TRIANGLE CENTER

The Coral Triangle Center (CTC) is a foundation based

in Indonesia that trains marine resource managers and

educates all groups that interact with coastlines and reefs

within the Coral Triangle. The CTC provides training and

learning programs; supports marine-protected areas;

coordinates a learning network for MPA practitioners;

connects the public and private sector on coastal issues;

and is developing a center of excellence in marine

conservation in Bali focused on the Coral Triangle.

CTC has a Board of Trustees consisting of 12 members

and a Board of Advisers with representatives from each

CT6 country and experts form Australia, USA and UK.

CTC envisions healthy seas that enrich nature and peoplewith mission is to inspire and train generations to care for

coastal and marine ecosystems. There are five programs

within CTC, they are Training and Learning, Learning

Sites, Learning Network, Public-Private Partnership,

and Regional Hub. CTC is developing a portfolio of MPA

learning sites throughout the Coral Triangle with Nusa

Penida MPA and the Banda Islands as its learnings sites

in Indonesia.

Established in 2000, CTC was developed as the regional

training arm of The Nature Conservancy. Given the hugegrowth in demand and need to build capacity at much

larger national and regional scales, TNC recognized that

regional training and learning services could be best

provided over the long term by an autonomous, locally

based organization. CTC transitioned from TNC into a

fully independent organization in 2011.

To date, CTC has trained more than 1000 professionals

and practitioners. The Coral Triangle Center (CTC) and

the Indonesian Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries

(MMAF) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)

in 2012 to build local leadership and capacity in the

field of marine conservation and sustainable fisheries

resources conservation. Recently, at SOM9, CTC has

been unanimously endorsed by the CT delegates to

become a development partner to CTI-CFF. CTC works

with communities, national and local governments,

international and local universities, NGOs, networks and

corporate partners to implement its programs funded by

public and private donors.

This is a quarterly report produced by

the Coral Triangle Center (CTC) in Bali.
