Wise Steps Foundation (WSF)

Yayasan Karya Lokal Nusantara, also known as Wise Steps Foundation, is a non-profit organization established in 2019 and based in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara. As part of the Wise Steps social enterprise, the foundation is dedicated to empowering youth and marginalized groups in rural areas through circular tourism. Wise Steps Foundation focuses on four core pillars: education, employment, entrepreneurship, and environment. Its mission is to create economic opportunities, preserve local culture, and protect the environment for the well-being of future generations. The foundation implements a regenerative tourism approach through the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) framework, targeting local communities, particularly youth and marginalized groups, so they can become agents of change and manage resources in alignment with the 3P principles (Planet, People, Prosperity) to achieve sustainable economic growth.
