Perhutana: Embracing the idea of the New Rural Agenda, which recognizes non-human entities as playing a vital role in the sustainability of all living beings, Perhutana emerges as an alternative approach to forest-making—one that is collectively built upon our shared awareness as humans, who are often regarded as invaders of forests. This invasion ranges from individual acts such as cutting down a single tree, to clearing vast forest areas for personal gain, and even the large-scale destruction of virgin forests in the name of infrastructure development.

Regardless of the scale, such actions inevitably lead to conflict. The development of this forest is conceived as a solution to various forms of conflict—ecological, social, and cultural. This initiative also stands as a commitment to raising awareness and offering restitution for those who have caused harm to Nature.

We organize educational activities for kids on the land, where children engage in hands-on learning about nature, sustainability, and local ecosystems. Through supervised exploration, and planting workshops, they develop a deeper connection to the environment while gaining practical knowledge about conservation and responsible land stewardship.

The New Rural School is an artistic research program that conducted across several collective lands and plantations within the Lumbung Land network. It adopts the concept of “Pesantren,” utilizing the ‘nyantrik’ method—a learning approach that emphasizes deep bodily engagement and sensory immersion in activities led by the hosts of the land or farm.
