Referring the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) framework,Ceva focuses on SGD 5: Gender Equality, specifically through women and youth economic empowerment. The concept also draws from Paris 2030 Climate Change Agreement as we globally work together towards promotion of People, Planet, Prosperity, Partnership and Peace (5Ps).

Since 2015, A sharing platform: “Ceva Women’s Circle” has brought together community, women and youth leaders to share ideas, support one another to advance in their professional and personal lives.

In the wake of COVID-19, the learning has now moved to the digital platform via webinars, business coaching and mentoring and social networking organized by Ceva and our partners. 

Through the Itikad Baik Project (Good-Cause Project), Ceva and ten partner brands in four major cities in Indonesia have joined forces.

Circular Economy

Feasibility Studies on Effective Technology for Community Waste Management & Clean Water Projects

We have jumpstarted the studies and project planning for two community-based projects in urban (solid waste management) and rural area (clean and safe drinking water) in Bali province, Indonesia.

Due to COVID-19, the studies were delayed from its initial timeframe.

The delay has somehow given us with more opportunities to perform technology review and to forge partnerships with several organizations: local government, community empowerment NGO, academia, technology advisor, and IT support.

We plan to implement these Circular Economy projects in mid 2021.
