BASAbali is a collaboration of scholars, governments, artists, and community members from within and outside of Bali that encourages people to value local languages and to take action to strengthen them alongside of national and international tongues.
BASAbali primary vehicle is a multimedia Balinese-English-Indonesian wiki dictionary and encyclopedia which it uses to engage the public, to revitalize local languages in the modern digital world, and to create free digital language resources.
We are proud that BASAbali Wiki, a Balinese-English-Indonesian dictionary, was one of the five initiatives from around the world to receive the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) International Literacy Prizes for its contribution to literacy and multilingualism.

Congratulations to Team 1 for winning the Grand Prize US$ 25,000 and special thanks to Anna Miles ( Team 2) for her hard work and commitment.
The winning solution bridges the gap between development and sustainability by providing a robust coastal defense solution reviving ecology while inviting and connecting local communities to the shoreline.
The seawall embraces the water, facilitating public engagement with the marine ecosystem and provides enhanced physical and visual access to the bay.
The design represents an environmentally sensitive solution that meets coastal defense needs, while upholding the commitment to sustain and enhance coastal resources.
Among the competing teams are marine engineers, landscape architects, top-tier innovative companies, and startups — all who are working toward a breakthrough in the seawall design. The two winning teams are one step closer to having the prototype development of the ecological sea wall ready.
Both teams comprise professionals with a passion for environmentally friendly solutions to seawall designs. Team 1 has three industry professionals Adi Neuman ECOncrete (Israel), Hugo Shelley (UK) and BioInspired Argentinian duo: Alejandro Bollano and Charly Karamanian. Team 2 has a landscape engineer and civil engineer, both from UAE and PowerCem Technologies a company from The Netherlands that specializes in sustainable materials.
