the hidden side of bali
When we think of Bali, we often picture stunning landscapes, children playing on the beach, parents enjoying a sunset with drinks in hand, and pristine resorts.
While Bali is often seen as a paradise, the reality for many families and children is far from this ideal. Over 50% of the Balinese population lives in poverty, surviving on less than $2 a day.
A quarter of a million people in Bali live on less than $2 a day.
Many families are forced to live in overcrowded, unsafe conditions, and some must abandon their children due to the inability to afford basic needs like food, clothing, or education. Children as young as four live and beg on the streets, vulnerable to abuse and exploitation. With limited access to education, many are trapped in the cycle of poverty, unable to read or write.
Akademi Kristus was founded to bring hope to Indonesian youth, families, and communities by building meaningful relationships and offering programs that boost confidence, empower individuals, and help them achieve their goals in the academic and employment field.

At Akademi Kristus, we believe that lasting change happens when people feel seen, valued, and supported in what they do and who they are.
