Free West Papua Campaign

Company Description

West Papua Coffee for Freedom Foundation is not for profit, it engenders freedom of expression, self-determination and a passion for the environment. We set out to establish an ethical, transparent, coffee-growing supply chain, ensuring that all the people that we work with to produce our coffee are treated equitably and with the utmost deference.We find child labour, sweatshops and extortionate middlemen abhorrent and pride ourselves on being one of the very few coffee houses that ensure our coffee is organic, shade-grown and free of pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, and harmful fertilizers, which not only produce an inferior coffee but eventually can damage the health of the workers handling it. We have been using shade-grown coffee since our inception, as it is the traditional method and incorporates natural ecological relationships. Whereas ‘open planting' is unsustainable, ravages the land through overexposure to sunlight and has a negative impact on the environment.Through our travels, we became friends with Benny Wenda and learned about the many years of atrocities that were inflicted upon the West Papuan people. He is the Interim President of West Papua and the Chairman of the United Liberation Movement for West Papua (ULMWP) and a consultant on our campaign drive.Through the West Papua Coffee for Freedom Foundation, we are presently trying to relocate our coffee imports from a region in West Papua as part of our contribution to the liberation, whilst keeping the indigenous varietal and terroir the same. We now want to assist further by not just raising awareness but adopt a more tangible approach for the Free West Papuan Campaign in London and the UK.Papua Merdeka!
