Introduction: Welang Basin
As one of the major river basins in East Java which has caused continuous flood challenges, Welang river basin is uniquely located in three administrative areas; Malang Regency, Pasuruan Regency, and Pasuruan City. The upstream region is located between Malang and Pasuruan Regency, the midstream is in the Pasuruan Regency, while the downstream is in Pasuruan City. Due to the various technical and social factors, it has been continuously flooding and caused a halt in the economic activities. Each section of Welang river, from upstream to downstream, has its own thematic challenges.
This page is dedicated to be the engagement platform between stakeholders in Welang River Basin and to share the Master Plan progress with wider audiences.
Pendahuluan: DAS Welang
Sebagai salah satu DAS utama di Jawa Timur yang kerap mengalami permasalahan banjir, DAS Welang secara unik terletak di tiga wilayah administratif; Kabupaten Malang, Kabupaten Pasuruan, dan Kota Pasuruan. Wilayah hulu terletak di antara Kabupaten Malang dan Pasuruan, bagian tengah di Kabupaten Pasuruan, sedangkan bagian hilir berada di Kota Pasuruan. Karena berbagai faktor teknis dan sosial, maka banjir seringkali menyebabkan terhentinya kegiatan perekonomian. Setiap ruas sungai Welang, dari hulu hingga hilir, memiliki tantangan tematiknya masing-masing.
Halaman ini didedikasikan untuk menjadi media interaksi antara pemangku kepentingan di DAS Welang dan untuk berbagi kemajuan Rencana Induk kepada khalayak yang lebih luas.
"Groundwater is invisible, but its impact is visible everywhere."
The UNESCO Water Resilience Challenge is a capacity-building program that challenges and inspires the next future leaders, especially students and young professionals from various backgrounds, to contribute ideas and concepts for their version of sustainable water management in biosphere reserve areas. This year marks the second year of the UNESCO Water Resilience Challenge with the theme of Groundwater.
Fifty selected participants from Indonesia and Vietnam will be put into teams, exchanging knowledge, mentored by professionals, and challenged to make the invisible visible! One winning team from each country will be invited to present their ideas at UNESCO International Conferences.
The Young Expert Programmes are open to Dutch Young Experts and Local Young Experts from any of the eligible countries. There is a difference in the selection process for both. Local Young Experts apply by approaching Dutch organisations, who conduct their own selection process, and Dutch Young Experts apply when new vacancies are posted online.

Sanitation saves lives, but billions of people live without access to even the most basic sanitation services. Globally, 61% of the population (4.5 billion people) lack “safely managed sanitation” – meaning access to a toilet or latrine that leads to treatment or safe disposal of human waste.
Since 2015, we have been working –with a large group of public-private partners– on a dream to get Indonesian village people on lifelong lifesaving water and sanitation, and we developed the world’s most cost-efficient sanitation system in the process, the Safe Water Garden.
Then we realised that with just a little bit of extra effort (from the local people themselves) we could establish a whole WASH revolution, which in turn leads to micro-farming and community tourism.
At the urging of the Gastes foundation, we put together a national scale-up plan (see the timeline here) which not only brings WASH, but a complete uplifting of rural communities, powered by local people themselves (our systems are so simple, with a little training, families can build them themselves in under a day).

The remaining 13% work in the formal sector. Education level of 49% graduated from elementary school, 23% junior high school, 18% senior high school, and 6% graduate from university (Diploma / Bachelor).
Public understanding of the use of recycled water for daily household activities is still minimal. The community believes in the quality of recycled water through processing results and uses it for purposes other than drinking and cooking, 36% for watering plants, 54% toilet rinsing, 3% washing clothes, 2% bathing, other 5% for washing vehicles. In motivating the community to change existing condition in their environment, whether related to the customs of society and the existence of technology that need to be adjusted is done by society approach through four stages, namely identification stage and location search of model application, pre-implementation stage of development, development stage, and maintenance and utilization stage .
The impact of the implementation of settlement area is expected to provide more benefits for the community in the research location and reduce disease rate caused by the use of clean water, waste water management and waste management

The idea that became SIWI stems from three linked events in Stockholm in 1991. The Stockholm Water Festival invited the public to celebrate water on the streets of Stockholm, the Stockholm Water Symposium gathered some two hundred scientists to discuss global water challenges, and the Stockholm Water Prize, under the patronage of H.M. King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden, was awarded for the first time, in recognition of outstanding achievements in water-related activities.
SIWI now focuses on a range of research and development topics within and around water that support decision-makers world. World Water Week, an expansion of Stockholm Water Symposium, is today the world’s leading annual water event, the Stockholm Water Prize the most prestigious water award, and the Stockholm Junior Water Prize fosters future generations of water excellence.

Leaders at the local level must demonstrate responsibility, responsiveness and a clear vision for the future of their communities. Moreover, they need skilled people to manage and deliver services in a transparent and effective way. To achieve this, citizens should have the capacity to put forward their needs and ideas to improve their community and hold their governments accountable.
Through training and education programmes, we seek to develop knowledge and skills required to improve local governance and decentralisation in developing and post-conflict societies.
