To support Orang Asli youth in accessing pathways within guiding, conservation, and forest-based livelihoods
Grounded in knowledge, dignity, and long-term care for the land.
Our Approach
Penjaga Gunung exists to bridge gaps between communities and the systems that shape conservation and ecotourism today. We focus on enabling access by supporting Indigenous youth to move within existing pathways, while ensuring that knowledge, agency, and dignity remain with the communities themselves.
