Yayasan Orangutan Sumatera Lestari – Orangutan Information Centre (YOSL-OIC) is a grassroots NGO based in Medan of North Sumatra. We work in collaboration with local communities living alongside orangutan populated areas in both the Leuser Ecosystem and the Batang Toru Ecosystem. The Leuser Ecosystem is the last natural habitat remaining for the Sumatran orangutan and is one of the most important tropical forests remaining in Asia. The Leuser  ecosystem is the only place on Earth where orangutans, tigers, rhinos and elephants coexist in the wild, making it a high priority landscape for conservation efforts as well as earning a globally important status. The Batang Toru Ecosystem is a mountainous area of rainforest in the province of North Sumatra. The Tapanuli orangutan (Pongo tapanuliensis) that was discovered in 2017 as a new species of orangutan, is endemic to the Batang Toru Ecosystem. With an estimated population of fewer than 800 individuals, the Tapanuli orangutan is listed as Critically Endangered. Occupying about 1420 square kilometers, the Batang Toru Ecosystem serves as a habitat for many other rare and threatened species, including the Sumatran tiger, other cat species, pangolins, tapirs and sun bears.

 

OIC was initially established in 2001 by Panut Hadisiswoyo solely as an information centre for orangutan only. OIC has since expanded their work and developed various projects dedicated to the protection of forest and wildlife conservation as well as helping the livelihood of communities by introducing sustainable agricultural practice. Our staff come from various professional fields. Working together with skill, shared passion and commitment help achieve the fundamental goal of conservation. We also firmly believe that local people are those best suited to have an impact in and help the Sumatran forest and biodiversity. Protecting orangutans, wildlife, the forest, and the community are the vessels by which we protect our planet.
