WASTE LESS FILMS
PURPOSE
Education through visuals.
NAvakara aspires to cultivate a deeper and more comprehensive understanding among participants by showcasing thought-provoking films. These visuals emphasize how our direct or indirect choices significantly affect the well-being of the planet we call home.
Waste Less Films events are designed to heighten awareness about the harmful impacts of waste while inspiring and motivating participants to adopt lifestyles that ultimately lead to zero-waste living.
WASTE LESS FILMS WEEKEND
NAvakara regularly organizes Waste Less Films Weekend (two films over one weekend or two films over two weekends), Waste Less Films Series (four films over two weeks), and Waste Less Films Festival (filmmaking workshop, seven-day film screenings and short film awarding).

NAVAKARA
Founded in September 2015, NAvakara emerged as a brainchild of four friends driven by a shared passion for raising awareness about environmental degradation issues and seeking innovative solutions. In 2019, Mitra Solusi NAvakara was officially incorporated in Indonesia.
