Dr. Kinari Webb founded Health In Harmony to address rainforest devastation in West Kalimantan, Indonesia, recognizing the link between human and environmental health. Inspired by studying orangutans in 1993, she returned after graduating from Yale School of Medicine in 2002. She began work in Sukadana, West Kalimantan, Indonesia in 2007 through listening to rainforest community’s solutions. After dramatically positive results in human well-being and rainforest conservation, HIH now works in 9.4 million hectares of rainforest in Indonesia, Madagascar and Brazil. Honored with Ashoka and Rainier Arhnold Fellowships, and profiled in numerous media outlets, Webb's work has garnered international recognition.
