SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, June 14, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Green Globe recently awarded Pullman Ciawi Vimala Hills Resort Spa & Convention its inaugural certification, testament to the resort’s unwavering commitment to sustainability and responsible tourism practices. Perched atop a premium nature-friendly estate, Pullman Ciawi Vimala Hills Resort Spa & Convention overlooks an unparalleled vista of three majestic mountains - Pangrango, Salak, and Geulis.

Batik Anggun and Kampung Perca Bogor Collaboration - CSR Initiatives
Pullman Ciawi maintains a key focus on social initiatives that seamlessly blend tradition, community empowerment and sustainability together to create brighter tomorrows. Embracing tradition and fostering sustainability, Pullman Ciawi Vimala Hills worked together with Batik Anggun Bogor in arranging a special celebration of National Batik Day held last year. This vibrant event intertwined the rich heritage of batik with a modern spin featuring a Batik Exhibition, a Batik Market and batik-making classes for esteemed guests.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the village of Kampung Perca located in eastern Bogor was severely impacted with over 1,000 villagers, primarily women and housewives, left unemployed. At that time, the Mayor of Bogor, Mr. Bima Arya started a new community initiative that involved repurposing unused fabric into craft clothing and other products that would provide income for the women. In line with the resort's commitment to zero waste, Pullman Ciawi Vimala Hills donates retired linen to the collective of 30 artisans which creates a range of items including homewares, floor mats, tablecloths, pillowcases, bags, casual attire and keychains. All proceeds from the sale of these products goes directly to Kampung Perca.

Green Team - Herbs Garden & Bee Sanctuary
Pullman Ciawi Vimala Hills is particularly proud of its onsite sustainability projects including the establishment of a Herb Garden and Bee Sanctuary, both Green Team initiatives. The Green Team is dedicated to nurturing thriving ecosystems within the property grounds, ensuring that every aspect of the resort’s operations aligns with environmental values. The herb garden provides fresh, organic ingredients for culinary creations in kitchens whilst also serving as an educational space for guests interested in sustainable living. Additionally, the bee sanctuary is crucial in sustaining local bee populations and promoting pollination in surrounding areas. Through these projects, Pullman Ciawi reduces its ecological footprint and contributes to preserving biodiversity in the Gadog, Bogor region.

Better Food Waste Management - Yayasan Emanuel Collaboration
One example of the hotel’s ongoing social practices involves improved management of food waste. Pullman Ciawi efficiently monitors and manages any surplus food, redirecting it to those in need through Yayasan Emanuel (The Emmanuel Foundation). The Emmanuel Foundation is a not-for-profit social services NGO providing support to disadvantaged and marginalized individuals, families and communities in Java. Each month, over 20,000 children and individuals are helped with approximately 2.9 million children and families receiving assistance to date. This program is a proactive step toward supporting sustainability and social equity within the hospitality industry in Indonesia.

With an impressive compliance score of 95%, Pullman Ciawi Vimala Hills exemplifies excellence in environmental sustainability practices, firmly anchored in a dedication to upholding the highest standards. The resort's holistic ethos underscores the significance of active community engagement and conscientious ecological stewardship in the hospitality industry.
