The TMB Foundation is an NGO that organizes itself at local, national and international level to make a social contribution to the Moluccas. TMB’s head office is located in Ambon, Maluku.
The project is supported by UNFPA and the Norwegian government. An official event will take place in Ambon on 28 May to draw attention to the project.
The Health Awareness Project is a national project in East Indonesia. With this, the UNFPA wants to further promote, protect and better map sexual health in the Moluccas, among others. The TMB Foundation is the local partner in this project and works together with Jaringan Indonesia Positif (JIP).
