Embark on an extraordinary adventure with Freedom Summit III, inspired by the resilience of the groundbreaking mental health mountaineering expedition “Freedom Summit” in October 2021. Faced with unprecedented challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic and travel restrictions, the summit persevered, breaking into smaller groups over five weekends to conquer the secret “Freedom Summit trail” of Bali's Mount Abang.
The Freedom Summit III will feature a unique climb of Mount Agung from the Besakih Temple down to the Desa Ban region of Karangasem, followed by the “Freedom Summit Trail” , developed by Right Reasons Funding in the impoverished Desa Ban region in Karangasem in the midst of the pandemic. The trail creation took over 500 man-hours and offers breathtaking views. The finale of Freedom Summit III will be the entire community, all three divisions tackling Mount Batur for representation of the final push for accessibility for ALL to professional mental health assistance.
The Freedom Summit secured the facility, the Freedom Summit II (with the support of Actual Rehab Australia) opened the operations of professional mental health assistance and with the Freedom Summit III we aim to raise the URGENT funds of keeping the doors open for the thousands in need!
