KEMBALI (Kolaborasi Ekonomi Masyarakat Berbasis Lingkungan) is a web platform that gives pre-loved items a second chance through community action. It connects individuals, communities, small businesses, and waste banks within a circular-economy ecosystem.
Overview
KEMBALI is designed to help people sell, exchange, donate, repair, and recycle items that still have practical or economic value. Instead of treating used goods as waste, the platform provides a more organized way to put them back into circulation through community partners and verified organizations.
The project responds to two connected challenges: the growing amount of household waste and the difficulty communities face when looking for usable goods. KEMBALI addresses both through a structured donation flow, verified community information, item photo verification, donation tracking, and impact-oriented communication.
