Dima is spearheading the Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) initiative at East Ventures, an Indonesia and Singapore based venture capital firm, where she played a key role in conducting assessments, advocating ESG to all portfolio companies, and establishing the firm’s inaugural Climate Tech Fund.

At the age of 29, she was recently honored with the GreenBiz 30 Under 30 Award Year 2023 and is also helping to establish Indonesia’s pioneering impact investment alliance consisting of accelerators, incubators, and impact investors.

Dima discovered her passion for advocating sustainable development issues when she served on the Youth Advisory Board of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) in 2016.

This continued during her 5-year tenure at UNDP, when she championed gender equality and social inclusion safeguards in governmental climate projects and was appointed as a member of the Gender Task Force at UNDP, which was awarded the Gold Gender Seal in 2020.

Having led field missions where she met and consulted with women farm laborers and fishermen on remote Indonesian islands, strengthened her commitment to advocating for climate justice. Dima believes that both the public and private sectors have mutual responsibility for advancing inclusive and sustainable development.

Dima is passionate about bridging diverse stakeholders, quantifying impact, safeguarding environmental and social inclusion, and conveying project outcomes through visual storytelling.
