Founded by McKinsey & Company and established as a local **foundation (Yayasan) in Indonesia**, we have a track record of transforming waste systems across the globe. --- ### Impact in Bali Over the past seven years in Bali, Delterra has: **worked with 30+ villages** to transform their waste management and recycling,** reaching up to 80% recycling participation**; enabled the operation and scaling of one of **Indonesia’s largest organic waste facilities** (25-30 tons/day); **developed trusted advisory relationships with key Bali stakeholders**, including the provincial environmental taskforce, regency governments, the local-level environmental office/body (DLHK), and village and customary/religious leaders (Desa Adat); and partnered with academia, NGOs and other local organizations across the value chain.

These numbers highlight our ability and ambition to deliver system-wide change on large-scale environmental problems while improving people’s lives. ### 343k+ Number of people we are on track to reach with recycling and waste management services by 2022, most of whom had no access to these services before ### ~250 Community workers and stakeholders trained through our Rethinking Recycling Academy sessions ### 200% Increase in salary achieved for 80+ waste workers --- ### Our Partnerships in Bali Our current partners for ongoing work in Bali include: **Global Methane Hub, WWF** and Delterra’s Global Strategic Partners (**Amcor, Dow, Mars, P&G**).  We are also in discussion with many other potential funders for the Bali-wide work including bilateral governments, corporates, philanthropic organizations and delivery partners.
