LITERASI ANAK BANUA PROJECT

Free Tutoring

Free tutoring is a project of providing free tutoring to children, which is divided into academic and non-academic tutoring. In academic tutoring, we form a potential-based particular curriculum by utilizing visual, kinetic, and audio-based learning adaptations in small groups. Meanwhile, our non-academic tutoring adapts to the adaptation conditions of indigenous peoples to the environment, be it traditional dance, swimming, and various activities that have the potential to be developed as talents. On the other hand, we have also built libraries by utilizing residents' houses so that when the facilitator is not in the village, the children can learn independently. As a result, more than 2000 students in 20 Villages have already been impacted by these programs, 30-40% illiteracy has been reduced, and the dropout rate has dropped to 60%. Also, 10-15% of students are winning national championships in sports and cultural competitions.

One Way Project

The One-Way Project is a Literasi Anak Banua program that is carried out several times a year according to the needs of the children. In this project, some of them are the distribution of uniforms, masks, books and stationery, volunteer activities, and many more, which are arranged under the names of programs such as Cipta Asa, Buku Bersambung dan Buku Berkata, which already impacted more than 15.000 students across South Borneo

ABOUT
LITERASI ANAK BANUA

Literasi Anak Banua is an NGO that is engaged in improving the quality of education for children in remote villages in South Kalimantan, empowering young people to become changemakers in solving various problems in the surrounding environment based on the communities' needs and bringing children and youth on multiple learning modules that focuses on improving the life of the student  .
Literasi Anak Banua was founded in 2018 due to poor conditions of Literacy quality. Where many elementary school children, indigenous people of Dayaknese south Borneo from the most disadvantaged, outermost and frontier areas, can't read even in their 3rd Class due to lack of resources, poor accessibility, low learning, curriculum and many other things. The issue not only impacts socioeconomic conditions but also leads to social conflict. There are some cases where mining/palm companies asked the head of the tribe to sign a letter of land surrender to gain their land where they can't read

Initially founded under the name “Rumah Baca Kami”, it was initiated to reduce the quality gap in remote and urban areas. Now, Literasi Anak Banua has an impact on 40 remote villages in South Kalimantan in 5 districts. Involving 90 volunteers, 24 permanent members and 18 digital teams with various activities, from providing free tutoring based on teaching with a particular curriculum, building a mini library, one-way project and sakula programme which has an impact on more than 10.000 students, creating 8 new initiatives, reduced illiteracy and dropout rate, increased multiple knowledge.
