The development of sustainable, climate change resilient rice-farming at the remote coastal village of Bantarsari, Java, Indonesia.

The project will reclaim an initial 150 hectares as productive rice fields, providing livelihoods for 150 subsistence farm families. A further 300 hectares will be added over the following years. Retaining mud on land will also reduce its damaging impact on fish hatcheries and mangrove, thus further increasing food security in the wider region.

A memorial museum to honour the witness of Ukraine’s Christian Martyrs

A memorial museum to honour the witness of Ukraine’s Christian Martyrs throughout the 1920s and ’30s, when spiritual and cultural genocide was quickly followed by torture and killings on an epic scale as the Communists began building their ‘paradise on earth’.

 

“The martyrs open the eyes of the living, reminding us that a man, putting himself in the place of God, creates a system of power taken out of hell.”

(Bishop Leon Dubravsky, speaking at the opening ceremony, 1 September 2018.)
