Impact

There are many definitions of Social Enterprise or Social Entrepreneur, but the definition that rings true for Bali Mountain Coffee is the one defined by the late Pamela Hartigan, the former Managing Director of the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship and Co-Writer of the book “The Power of Unreasonable People – How Social Entrepreneurs Create Markets That Change The World”. Pamela essentially says that Social entrepreneur does not empower community, but Social Entrepreneur is merely facilitator and catalyst for social change to create agency and restore dignity.

Through our 3 Pillars of Commerce, Community Collaboration and Consultancy, we aim to create a sustainable ecosystem in Indonesian agriculture products and its people.

As UN SDGs become even more critical for all businesses to solve real world problems, and work toward a more equitable and balanced world, we at Bali Mountain Coffee are passionate about creating decentralized Indonesian coffee products, bring and promote it to the coffee lover around of the world so it will be well-known and successfully in the global market and give the positive impact to the local coffee farmers and their welfare.

 

In ensuring our work makes impact, we aim to conduct regular impact measurements.

Our work in Bali Mountain Coffee Plantation has been validated by an impact assessment that was conducted in 2019 and that has further fuelled our drive to regularly evaluate our projects and activities.

In Kintamani, where we have been working the longest, a farmers’ cooperative has been established, many farmers can earn a better living and sell their coffee to the whole Indonesian market and entered global market. The pride among Balinese to encourage the use and consumption of Bali local products including the coffee, creating a high local demand. Additionally, we have been doing #BaliCoffeeLovers (Community of Bali Coffee Lovers), whereby the farmers in the villagers earn more income by getting more order from around the world and serve packaged coffee plantation tours. All of these have created “agency” or power, especially economic power and dignity among the coffee farmers and the village people.
