Recycling Festival 'Langkah Membumi' Returns with a Fresh Face
Jakarta (ANTARA) - The “Langkah Memimbumi” recycling festival has arrived with a new face entering its fifth year of organisation, transforming into “Langkah Membumi Market”. This new iteration offers a more interactive, relevant, and easily applicable approach to sustainability in daily life.
This transformation was driven by findings from the 2023 event, which showed that approximately 90 per cent of the Langkah Membumi audience consisted of Gen Z and young millennials.
“We observed that the younger generation is not only increasingly concerned about sustainability issues, but is also more active in seeking products, services, and experiences that align with their core values,” said Lisa Widodo, COO and Co-Founder of Blibli, the organiser, in a written statement on Sunday.
Lisa noted that Gen Z is increasingly aware of social and environmental issues, while simultaneously wielding significant influence over future consumption trends.
“Therefore, Langkah Membumi Market 2026 is here to help bridge the gap between concern and real action through experiences that are more practical, participatory, and relevant to everyday life,” said Lisa.
To achieve this goal, Langkah Membumi Market 2026 presents three main pillars.
The first pillar is ‘Inspiring Talks’, which offers ideas, perspectives, and inspiring stories from industry leaders, creators, communities, and changemakers driving change.
The second pillar, ‘Eco Labs’, invites visitors to learn through various workshops and interactive experiences, making a sustainable lifestyle feel more accessible and easy to implement.
Meanwhile, the ‘Curated Market’ serves as a space for various brands and entrepreneurs to showcase products, services, and innovations that are environmentally friendly and support a green lifestyle.
The peak of the Langkah Membumi Market 2026 event is scheduled to take place from 8–11 October 2026 at Grand Indonesia, Jakarta.
As an opening to the series of events, Blibli Tiket Action will host the Langkah Membumi Networking Dinner 2026, coinciding with World Environment Day.
The event will carry the theme: “Who Should Change First: Companies or Consumers? Rethinking Sustainability Adoption through Business Transformation and Consumer Behaviour”.
This forum serves as a meeting place for approximately 60 industry leaders, business players, communities, and changemakers to exchange perspectives and strengthen collaboration in driving sustainability adoption in Indonesia.
“We hope that forums such as this can open more collaborative opportunities that provide a positive impact on society, the environment, and sustainable economic growth,” said Luke Ariefiandi, Strategic Communications and Brand Head of UOB Indonesia, as one of the collaborators.
