Exploring Sumba 2016
Share Experience and Mutual Learning
A trip to visit a new area in order to know the people and culture is a precious opportunity. Moreover, the opportunity to interact and to learn with the local community about the diversity in Indonesia is so worthy. Stube-HEMAT Yogyakarta provides an opportunity for students and its activists to visit Sumba, a small island in East Nusa Tenggara. Not everyone can visit Sumba to enjoy the natural beauty, unique culture and society.
There are some students who dare to accept the challenge of venturing Sumba to share their knowledge and skills. Who are they?

Those above are what young people have done. Eventhough they are simple but it may give inspiration to others. Stube-HEMAT Yogyakarta constantly encourages and motivates young people to establish their idealism and experience to bring benefit to the society. (TRU).
