The Equator Prize Award Ceremony on September 17, 2017 honoured 15 outstanding indigenous and local community initiatives from 12 countries, advancing local nature-based solutions for sustainable development.
In NYC to attend the award ceremony on behalf of the Raja Ampat Homestay Association was Association board member Stefani Arwakon, and Kristian Sauyai, the head of the Association management committee.
The last six years: What an incredible journey it’s been. From a handful of fishing families with zero business experience to a sustainable ecotourism sector generating over USD 1.5 million a year for local village economies. Such deserving winners!

seventythree – Seventythree and the Raja Ampat Homestay Association: How communities in Raja Ampat are shaping their world.
“I was an illegal logger. I brought all [these] investors here to log the forest. Then I discovered this homestay business and my life changed completely. I now stand on the front line trying to defend our environment.”
This is the testimony of a homestay owner at Sawinggrai, Gam Island, Raja Ampat, in December 2013. Many more local people have stories like that to tell: people who previously had no choice other than to make their living from bomb fishing, and from the illegal timber and wildlife trade, in order to survive and to send their children to school.
This article on the Walton Family Foundation website describes how people in Raja Ampat are have grabbed the possibilities offered by ecotourism and related services to take control of their own lives and of the places they have lived in for generations. They have created a new politics in which they have redefined conservation as part of their struggle to liberate themselves from poverty.
Seventythree is a partner of the Walton Family Foundation. We have worked in Raja Ampat as part of the Bird’s Head Seascape Initiative since 2013, alongside Starling Resources and other partners. Our work aims to create the social and political infrastructure for locally controlled Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) to work, and to improve the lives of Raja Ampat’s people.
We work with many of Raja Ampat’s customary communities, but specifically we are dealing with local homestay owners, women’s groups, village heads and councils, church and youth now represented by the Raja Ampat Local Homestay Association.
Creating a new politics of conservation.
After years of economic neglect, people in the Dampier Strait have carved out an entirely new market for ecotourism, which they own. In just three years they have built a sector that generates gross revenues of around USD 1.5 million per annum and that has created at least 600 new local jobs in homestays, fishing and agriculture.
The Raja Ampat Local Homestay Association currently represents just over fifty family-owned businesses. These are not private individual businesses, but collective family entities, similar to a traditional joint stock company, that support and employ an extended network of relations.
The Association is now the largest community-owned business grouping in Papua and West Papua. First concentrated around Mansuar and Gam in the Dampier Strait, the Association’s membership is spreading to include communities from other parts of Raja Ampat such as the Fam islands, Batanta and Saleo in western Waigeo.
The Association’s members understand that their businesses depend on the integrity of their environment. They also believe that they and others in their communities are best positioned to protect that environment, and that their businesses give them the means to do so:
“It’s obvious isn’t it? As more homestays start up in places under greatest threat from bomb fishing – such as Batanta and western Waigeo – less of it will happen. There will be more of us around to keep watch as we go about our business, and we will not need to be paid to patrol. Who would dare bomb the reef around Mansuar now?”
The Association delivers a range of business services to its members, including on-line promotion and bookings, business skills and training and mentoring, and government relations on issues such as the management of MPA entrance fees. It is now setting standards on diving, transport and hospitality to govern the conduct of its members’ businesses.
The Association is also a social movement motivated by the desire to prevent family land being sold to resorts and to stand on their own feet as economic actors. “Homestays are our way to defend our land… we do not want to be bystanders or someone else’s workers”. The pain that people feel when they have lost land remains the single most important factor in driving people to set up the Homestay Association.
The Association is a community organization that, for the first time, gives people from multiple communities their own, shared space to discuss their lives and businesses; and also to find solutions to the problems that most concern them, such as waste management, illegal fishing, illegal logging, and the loss of culture and identity.
The Association is inspiring youth. Over half its board are in their twenties and embody a new generation of community leaders that could serve Raja Ampat for the next forty years. The opportunity to work for the family business means that youth now want to come home after completing their studies. Much of the money that their families’ homestays generate now pays for their younger brothers and sisters to also go to college.
The Association is inspiring women. The Association understands that it will fail if men and women cannot work together, and if women do not feel empowered. Some of the Association’s most energetic directors are women. They are now organising other women in their villages to set up kiosks and a market for local organic produce to keep homestays supplied.
The homestay is therefore serving, not only to protect the marine environment, but also to regenerate community. Where this serves to build a supporting ecosystem of extended family and other social relations then it only reinforces the likelihood that conservation will succeed.
This is what we call a new politics of conservation in Raja Ampat. Among homestay owners, conservation is no longer somebody else’s agenda for which they need “livelihood alternatives” and “compensation”. People have redefined conservation as a factor that enables their own efforts to control, sustain, and make a better living from the places that they have inherited through custom – inside and outside MPAs.
Asosiasi Usaha Homestay Lokal Kabupaten Raja Ampat – Equator Initiative
AUHLKRA is a growing network of 84 community-owned businesses in Papua and West Papua, offering ecotourism services that connect tourists directly with family-run homestays through a user-friendly web portal, Stay Raja Ampat, and an SMS booking system. More than 600 new jobs have been created in homestays, fishing, and agriculture, including for youth and women, providing viable alternatives to the resort industry. The association sets hospitality and environmental standards for all member community-owned businesses. Pressures on ecosystems have been reduced through community forest patrols, peer-pressure enforcement of no-take fishery zones, and a participatory system to report illegal activities.

Barefoot Conservation meets the mayor of Raja Ampat
When Barefoot Conservation first came to Raja Ampat, we organised meetings with the Head of Tourism Board of Raja Ampat, Mr Yusdi in Waisai. We introduced our organisation and explained the community and science work that we would like to undertake in the region.
Mr Yusdi seemed to be very excited about Barefoot Conservation and he even arranged a meeting with the Major of Raja Ampat, Drs Marcus Wanma M.Si.We never expected such a meeting would take place so soon but since it was already planned (and it would be rude to say no to the major), we agreed to see him on the following week.
On the day of the meeting with the major, we put on our smart outfit which meant Barefoot T-shirt, trousers and shoes! Mr Yusdi greeted us and introduced us to the Head of the Homestay Association, Mr Paulus. After a brief conversation and a quick contact exchange, Mr Paulus left and the rest of us walked to the major’s office which was located just outside his office building. As soon as we entered the major’s room, we could feel a sense of power there. Massive room with classy furniture and carpeted floor welcomed us. Not to mention the gigantic statue of Jesus giving his blessings and plasma TV!
Mr Yusdi nervously introduced us to the major right away and we got to business. Simon then gave a short presentation on the missions of Barefoot Conservation. We essentially stated that we are here to help the community in many different aspects such as education, health services, diving safety, and conservation while still learning the culture and custom of the Papuan community. We also mentioned that the participation of stakeholders is the key to the success of our projects. The major accepted Barefoot Conservation, welcomed us to the region and gave his approval to start running our projects.
Both the major and Mr Yusdi eagerly offered their full support with our work and arranged to write us a letter of recommendation. We then said goodbye after taking some pictures to mark the event.
Homestay Association Conserving Forest and Sea in Dampier Strait

When Raja Ampat tourism in West Papua made public in 2003, foreign tourists commonly booked diving package in some resorts at Dampier Strait which was managed by migrants in collaboration with local peoples. Divers usually seek the view of wobegong, walking shark (Hemiscyllium freycinetti), mini horse sea (Hippocampus spp) and stingray fish Manta birostris). Besides, there are also many tourists are eager to see the dancing cenderawasih bird at natural forest in Sapokren Village. Up to 2010, there are many more resorts managed by migrants outside Papua. The limited local people management of natural resources turns to be challenging obstacle. In such a condition, local people only become bystander on their homeland.
In 2012, a group of young peoples in Dampier Strait were aware of the condition and then established a Homestay Association. The association plans to bolster economic status of the local peoples by giving civic space to discuss on business and locals’ lives. Kristian Sauyai, the Association coordinator, said, “Thanks God, young villagers seemed to get fresh water sprayed on their faces that made them aware to build homestay in their own villages.” To date, with professional management, tourists can book homestay online from stayrajaampat.com. In its early years, the association could only earn around IDR20-30 milion per year from homestay. “By online marketing, the income has grown far higher,” said Kristian.
Up to now, the Homestay Association has 150 units of homestay at 10 villages located in Waigeo, Batanta, and Misool Islands. Through concrete action, EcoNusa Foundation in cooperation with the Association worked on annual plans including training program on homestay management.
Homestay Association has made far better income currently. Tourist booking with down payment can reach IDR1 billion per month. However, the operational cost could spend around IDR600 million in two weeks. “But for the trainings, we are ready for funding sharing to a training on homestay management on 4-6 April 2020 in Saporkren Village,” said Kristian.
With the current progress, the community has been more enthusiastic to preserve sea and forest in Dampier Strait and other places surrounding their homestay. According to Marcel Mambrasar, the Diving Master from Arborek Village who hosts homestay guests every day, said that the coral ecosystem surrounding his village is getting healthier. Moreover, coral rehabilitation with high destructive potentials has been done while training young people to conserve environment. “This is very crucial, pace (Sir). If our coral is destroyed, there will be no more tourists coming to our place,” said Marcel.
Similarly, Orgenes Dimara, one of the owners of homestay, said that forest ecosystem in Waigeo Island, particularly behind the Saproken Village, should be preserved so that red cenderawasih bird (paradisea rubra) remain free dancing as if fairy from heaven. “We should maintain our forest so as to lure more tourists to see cenderawasih bird. When the forest is destroyed, bird will disappear and our income is gone,” said Orgenes.
