Under Yeb\u2019s leadership, Greenpeace Southeast Asia has grown from strength to strength, tackling some of the region\u2019s most pressing environmental challenges and amplifying the voices of communities on the frontlines of climate and ecological crises. From bold campaigns to protect Southeast Asia\u2019s precious ecosystems to championing climate justice on the global stage, Yeb\u2019s dedication and commitment have left an indelible mark on our organization and the wider movement for environmental justice.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cI am deeply humbled and grateful to have been part of this incredible journey with Greenpeace Southeast Asia,\u201d said Yeb. \u201cThis organization has shown time and again the power of people coming together to demand a better future for our planet and our children. I have no doubt that the team will continue to drive impactful change and inspire hope across the region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

Through nine years of serving as Executive Director, Yeb has led Greenpeace\u2019s collective journey in the region, creating connections with vast audiences as it has contested the dominant narratives and shaped new stories of inspiration.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cWe are grateful that with Yeb\u2019s leadership, we have built from strength to strength and galvanized our work to find the most catalytic ways of confronting the climate and biodiversity crises as they affect Southeast Asia, and magnify our impact globally,\u201d said Wahyu Dhyatmika, Greenpeace Southeast Asia Board Chair. \u201cWe expect him to continue to be a voice in the climate justice movement, and look forward to seeing him in the various movement spaces,\u201c he added.<\/p>\n\n

To ensure a smooth transition, Jasper Inventor has been named Interim Executive Director. Jasper is currently the Deputy International Programme Director at Greenpeace International and previously served as Programme Director for Greenpeace Southeast Asia. Based in Manila, Jasper brings a wealth of experience and deep knowledge of the region, its challenges, and opportunities. He will serve as Interim Executive Director until the search for a new leader is complete.<\/p>\n\n

While Yeb\u2019s departure marks the end of an era, it also ushers in a new chapter for Greenpeace Southeast Asia. The search for Greenpeace Southeast Asia\u2019s next Executive Director is underway, and the organization remains committed to being an independent campaigning organization, exposing environmental problems and advancing solutions for a green, just and peaceful future.<\/p>\n\n
