19 Aug 2025 | THK Int’l Roundtable with SEZ: “Building Bridges of Peace through New Era Bali Kerthi Economic Roadmap : Investments in Wellness, Blue and Green Economy and Knowledge Exchange”

Tri Hita Karana Forum implemented a key program activity through the Tri Hita Karana International Roundtable with Special Economic Zones, held on 19 August 2025 at Kura Kura Bali. The roundtable served as a strategic platform to advance the New Era Bali Kerthi Economic Roadmap, bringing together over 30 prominent representatives from government, business, international institutions, and local youth. With participation from figures such as Hon. Arkadiusz Mularcyzk of the European Parliament and representatives from Indonesian including I Made Mangku Pastika, the event positioned Bali’s Special Economic Zones—Sanur and Kura Kura Bali SEZs—as models for green, blue, and wellness economies. Through presentations, interfaith prayers, and collaborative dialogue sessions, the program reinforced Bali’s vision as a gateway for cultural diplomacy, sustainable investment, and global knowledge exchange.

Throughout the day, participants engaged in thematic dialogues that emphasized collaboration across borders, sustainable economic transformation, and the application of Tri Hita Karana values in policy and practice. Key outcomes included a renewed commitment to joint innovation in renewable energy, healthcare, education, and regenerative agriculture, as well as strengthened partnerships between Indonesia, the European Union, and local communities. Symbolic activities such as the turtle release and interfaith prayer for universal peace underlined the program’s integration of environmental stewardship and spiritual harmony. The event culminated in a shared reflection that celebrated Bali as both a living example and a global beacon of balance between people, nature, and the divine—affirming its leadership in promoting peace, sustainability, and intercultural understanding.
