A view of the Climate Rescue Station with Borobudur temple in the background, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which is a symbol for Buddhist enlightenment, is soon set to showcase Indonesia’s renewable energy potential, with the installation of solar-powered park lights. The project, called “Solarising Borobodur” is initiated by Greenpeace, with the Borobudur Conservation Agency (Balai Konservasi Borobudur), to urge the Indonesian government to implement a massive uptake of renewable energy (RE) sources and to decrease dependence on dirty fossil fuels such as coal. The solar-powered lighting system will be switched on next week

Contributors
The contributors are the change makers that bring the teachings and content to the program. They are the 'bricks and mortar‘ for the intellectual, socio-emotional and spiritual content of the program. In many cases they are social and societal entrepreneurs themselves and take a week out of their busy lives to come and share their knowledge and insights with the participants of YIP. Typically they join the program for a week and teach during the mornings. During this time they also participate in the community life of YIP. It is a wonderful chance for the participants to connect, build and deepen personal and informal relationships to these contributors who are often leading figures in various professions and leaders in their community.
This years contributors include:

Aleksandra Domańska

Allan Kaplan

Annie Meijer

Brenno Kaschner Russo

Christianne Aikins

Didintle Ntsie

Dr Lakshmi Prasanna

Dr. Vandana Shiva

Elias Diaz

Justas Kučinskas

Mansi Jasuja

Rachel Ingvad

Roi Gal-Or

Theo Fischer

Thomas Lüthi
Please note: YIP is a 'permanent improvisation‘, seeking to adapt to what participants are searching for and the current trends in our society. Due to this some information you find here is subject to change.
YIP Alumni
Each year the YIP program adds another group of alumni to the growing network.
The program has many experiences, learnings, insights and developments as a result, but one of the biggest and most lasting results are the human relations that build over the 10 months of living and learning together. Alumni often refer to their year group as 'their family' in the positive sense of what that might mean. Now that YIP has been operational for many years, that network is stretching itself across all continents and is starting to become a powerful community of change makers around the world.
These are the Alumni of the YIP years so far.
Sorry, the images not available at the moment. We are working on it.
