Since 1982, Epson has established a robust presence in Southeast Asia and South Asia. The company operates in 11 countries, supported by 7 manufacturing facilities and 6 solution centers that provide comprehensive services and solutions to meet local market needs.

WWF-Indonesia and Epson have extended their partnership to rehabilitate coral reefs in the Alor Marine Protected Area (MPA), focusing on Marisa Village in Pulau Kangge and Buaya Island. The project addresses the need to protect vital marine ecosystems while supporting local communities by promoting sustainable marine tourism.

The initiative includes coral reef restoration using the rockpile method, along with community engagement to raise awareness and encourage active participation in conservation. Key programs include strengthening Community-Based Tourism (CBT) and activating the Plastic Free Ocean Network (PFON). In the 2023-2024 phase, the partnership will focus on building local capacity, identifying and promoting tourism packages, and monitoring the restored coral sites. These efforts aim to create long-term environmental and economic benefits for both the ecosystem and local communities.

The Marine Tourism Improvement Program (MTIP) helps tourism providers adopt sustainable practices that align with global standards like the Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC) criteria. With Samsonite’s support, the program focuses on capacity building in key regions such as Alor, Labuan Bajo, and Wakatobi. Campaigns also aim to engage travelers in sustainable tourism, raising awareness about reducing ecological footprints and preserving Indonesia’s marine ecosystems

The program incorporates geotagging technology to monitor tree growth over a two-year period. To measure its environmental benefits, WWF-Indonesia also partners with Jejak.in for carbon storage tracking, ensuring the sustainability of this community-driven conservation effort.
