About Aliansi Lestari Rimba Terpadu
Aliansi Lestari Rimba Terpadu (ALeRT) is a non-profit organization established on 17 December 2009, in Way Kambas, Lampung, focusing on nature conservation efforts.
Since its establishment, ALeRT has initiated conservation efforts through restoration activities in degraded areas, supporting forest fire mitigation efforts, raising public awareness, and promoting sustainable and equitable use of natural resources through specialized ecotourism programs in Way Kambas National Park.

These include conducting Sumatran rhinoceros surveys and monitoring through direct field surveys and camera traps in collaboration with the Way Kambas National Park Authority (BTNWK); assisting in the rescue, sanctuary development, and care of Pahu the rhinoceros at the Kelian Rhino Sanctuary together with the East Kalimantan Natural Resources Conservation Agency (BKSDA); supporting the development of a rhino sanctuary in Gunung Leuser National Park (TNGL); and contributing to the conservation of the Javan rhinoceros in partnership with the Ujung Kulon National Park Authority (TNUK).
