THE PARTNERSHIP

In order to address the financial hardships experienced by many rural farming communities in Indonesia, Kopernik partnered with Evidence Action and the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab Southeast Asia (J-PAL SEA) on a pilot project called No Lean Season. The pilot project investigated ways of encouraging farmers to seek alternative work during the ‘lean season’ - the period between harvests where household cash flow is generally limited and consumption drops.
