HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMAN'S DAY!

#ORANGUTANWARRIOR: NUR SYAMSIAH

This time that coincides with #InternationalWomensDay, we'd like to tell you about one of the inspiring women who has been a part of our Orangutan Habitat Rehabilitation (RHO) programme in East Kalimantan since 2016.

Nur Syamsiah, known simply as Nur, is a RHO Community Development Coordinator who works following a busy, activity-packed schedule. While Nur’s work is not directly with orangutans, her role has a significant impact on #orangutan reintroduction programmes in Kalimantan.

Nur's work focuses on community development, education, health, and alternative incomes for the Wehea Dayak community and also has several interesting experiences she has had in her interactions with these local communities. Read the rest of the story here!
