Central Sulawesi Earthquake and Tsunami Emergency Response: 6-Month On | March 2019 7 Providing conducive learning spaces for quake-affected students 12-year old Aldo is relieved that he and his classmates no longer need to stay in the tents for their classes. “It’s hot and uncomfortable inside the tent,” he shares. Following the disasters that struck Central Sulawesi in September 2018, students had to use tents as temporary learning spaces. At least 1,509 schools were impacted by the earthquake, disrupting the education of more than 184,000 students. “Our classes were suspended for a month. When our school reopend, I did not immediately go back because our classrooms were damaged. I’ve missed playing with my classmates and attending my classes, especially the Indonesian language class,” Aldo adds. Wahana Visi Indonesia, along with partners, has constructed six temporary classrooms in Aldo’s school. The construction of a gender latrine is also on-going while other classroom materials like tables and chairs are to be provided to the school. “I like it here. There’s more air coming in,” Aldo smiles, referring to the TLC. With a conducive learning space, he is more excited to go to school. He said he’s studying hard because he hopes to become a soldier one day and be able to protect his nation. To date, World Vision has constructed 12 temporary learning classrooms (TLC). The initiative aims to complete 54 TLCs for nine schools until September 2019. Each school will also have gender-sensitive latrines to ensure that children have access to water, sanitation and hygiene facilities.

Increased strategic investments in children are required to fast-track achievement of the SDGs for the province.

  • The Gesneriaceae of Sulawesi I: an Introduction
    EDINBURGH JOURNAL OF BOTANY 60 (3): 299–304 (2004) 299 DOI: 10.10M/S0960428603000258 THE GESNERIACEAE OF SULAWESI I: AN INTRODUCTION M. MENDUM*† & H. J. ATKINS* Sulawesi (Celebes) is the largest island in the biogeographic region of Wallacea. The Gesneriaceae of the island are represented by 11 genera, some of which show a very high degree of endemism. Knowledge of the origin and affinities of the flora of this island is important for an understanding of the biogeography of the area. The Gesneriaceae promise to be excellent models for phytogeographic analysis, but before this, basic taxonomic studies must be carried out. A list of the currently known genera and species is provided, and descriptions of new taxa will be published over the coming months. Keywords. Biogeography, Gesneriaceae, Indonesia, Sulawesi, Wallacea. The islands of SE Asia comprise one of the most geologically complex regions in the world (Audley-Charles, 1981; Hall, 1996, 1998), at the meeting point of three major tectonic plates. Its turbulent geological history and exceptionally high levels of biological endemism make this region of prime interest to biogeographers. Wallace’s line, one of the most important biogeographic boundaries in the world, bisects the archipelago, and was originally thought to mark the meeting point of the Oriental and Australasian fauna and flora. Since Wallace first drew his line in 1863, many others have been drawn, reflecting different hypotheses based on the distribu- tion patterns of different taxa (summarized in Scrivener et al., 1943; Simpson, 1977). The difficulty of agreeing on a single line eventually resulted in the identification of a zone of transition in the centre of Malesia (Dickerson, 1928).

    Interim Report The Study on Arterial Road Network Development Plan for Sulawesi Island and Feasibility Study on Priority Arterial Road Development for South Sulawesi Province June 2007 (2) Biodiversity in Sulawesi Island Wallacea is a famous and essential biogeographical island group in eastern Indonesia which includes Sulawesi Island (which is about 178,700 km2). Sulawesi Island is the largest of these islands occupying about 53% of the island aggrupation located in the northwest part of Wallacea. Because of its tropical climate, its numerous islands, and complex geological history, Wallacea has high biodiversity, with numerous species found nowhere else in the world. Its total number of species is estimated at 11,400 and holds a high probability of undiscovered species due to the area’s isolation and inaccessibility.

Dangers to Australia's long-term security caused by a variety of factors influencing the course of events in Indonesia. 2. The probability of a large-scale refugee exodus to Australia within the next 3-5 years if oppression of minority groups left unchecked. 3. Recently discussions with a number of local Indonesian and overseas leaders regarding the concerns of Islamists controlling the national agenda 4. What can Australia do to help create better relations with Indonesia and to help Indonesia to be a more stable and reliable partner? 1. Dangers to Australia's long-term security caused by a variety of factors influencing the course of events in Indonesia. a. Despite the oflcial disbanding of the "Laskar Jihad" there are still ongoing & only partially restrained attacks by the Islamic "Jihad" and their trained followers in Central Sulawesi, Ambon, and North Maluku. The Islamic Jihad is a network or brotherhood consisting of numerous organizations whose goal is the establishing of Islamic Sharia Law throughout Indonesia and Indonesia becoming an Islamic State. Some of the more visionary radical elements aligned with "Jama 'ah Islamiyah " want to establish a S.E.Asian Islamic nation which would then set its goal on conquering, if necessary by force, other nations in the region, such as Australia, for Islam. To the present time these Islamic Jihad forces are acting with impunity and apparent immunity, although the Bali bombing seems to have caused a temporary halt to many of the major attacks, but in their place there has been a massive increase in the numbers of small bombings and bomb-threats throughout the country: 1.
