Our Mission

Yayasan Project HOPE aims to strengthen the capacity of healthcare workers for improved access to quality health services for Indonesians and to provide humanitarian assistance to disaster victims in the Southeast Asia region.

The Need

Indonesia is at the ring of fires with frequent natural disasters, and recently with manmade ones. Climate change has risen the number of disaster events and the pandemic has worsened the capacity of the health system to respond and continue to serve vulnerable populations and disaster victims.

The Solution

Governments and NGOs need to collaborate, apply new ways, and emphasize the domestic capacity to respond. YPH partner CBOs and local authorities, maintain a roster of emergency teams and support the health sector preparedness for rapid deployment to disaster areas in Southeast Asia.

Our Impact

Since 2018, YPH has been working relentlessly to develop the capabilities of +10,000 health workers in 11 Indonesian provinces and countries in the region, to provide access to high-quality healthcare and distribute tons of humanitarian relief items to +100,000 people devastated by the disasters.

Since 1958, the sister organization Project HOPE has responded to more than 45 natural and man-made disasters around the world. Historically, all responses have been led by staff based at Project HOPE’s global headquarters in the United States and deployed U.S.-based staff and medical volunteers to serve as the lead emergency response team in conjunction with local staff. However, climate change has exacerbated the number of natural disasters that are occurring and are disproportionately felt by vulnerable communities. At the same time, many governments are changing how they respond to these events, with greater emphasis being placed on building their own capacity rather than requesting international assistance when a disaster strikes.

Yayasan Project HOPE (YPH), a non-profit organization based in Indonesia, began its nonprofit operation in Indonesia’s public health programming and humanitarian assistance in Southeast Asia in 2018. YPH is adapting to that new way of thinking by developing programs such as the Emergency Response Team Roster and Health Sector Emergency Preparedness and Response Capacity Building in Indonesia. They aim to strengthen the capacity of healthcare workers for improved access to quality health services for Indonesians and to provide humanitarian assistance to disaster victims in the Southeast Asia region. These programs will better enable us to provide assistance when needed.
