Empowering Sustainable Communities Through Astra’s CSR: Showcasing Local Excellence for Global
Republic of Indonesia
Astra's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives are centered around four key pillars: health, education, environment, and entrepreneurship. The entrepreneurship pillar, in particular, plays a crucial role in supporting the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) number 1 (no poverty) and number 8 (decent work and economic growth). This aligns with the vision of Indonesia Emas 2045, which aims to build an independent and competitive society. One of Astra's flagship programs under the entrepreneurship pillar is the Desa Sejahtera Astra (DSA) program, which focuses on fostering economic growth and entrepreneurship in rural areas. Through this program, Astra helps villages enhance the quality of their local products, leading to improvements in living standards, education, and public health. A successful example from this program is Astra’s "Legenda Kopi Astra" brand, showcasing premium coffee varieties from regions like Takengon, Cikajang, Agam, Bondowoso, and Cikoneng. These coffees have successfully entered international markets, including Korea, the UK, Malaysia, and others. In addition to coffee, Astra also supports creative industries by promoting local crafts such as "Tas Anyaman Mansiang" from West Sumatra. These bags not only preserve local cultural heritage but also introduce Indonesian craftsmanship to global markets. Through these efforts, Astra is helping to build sustainable communities and significantly uplift local economies.
