<p>Addina is now working as a junior architect in the capital, Jakarta. At Kota Kita, she enjoyed being in the field to survey community members. She helped collect data from stakeholders and governments, and became a pro at drawing up maps and other designs.</p>

Yet what he finds challenging is dealing with the dramatic wet season.

The sky seemed fine to my eyes, but two minutes later, it just opened up," he says.</p>
<p>Alex is currently researching and summarizing Kota Kita's past projects for the organization's website, to make the valuable work of Kota Kita more accessible to diverse audiences. He plans to do a PhD in linguistic anthropology.</p>

He is currently completing his Master of Architecture at MIT, and as a fellow at the Tata Center for Technology and Design, he is developing research and a pilot project for the delivery of incremental affordable housing in India.</p>
<p>He felt the best experience he had during his internship was the combination of neighborhood surveys and developing maps simultaneously. “And also working late into the evening and sharing moped rides to catch a meal at Spesial Sambal,” he said, referring to a famous restaurant that Kota Kita staff regularly frequent which serves as many types of fresh chili sauce you can imagine.</p>

He helped create a database in Solo for the musrenbang, an annual community-level participatory budgeting process, so that residents could make decisions about their city based on data and evidence. Daniel now works in Singapore with Urban Launchpad and the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART) on different projects revolving around urban planning and technology.</p>
<p>Daniel continues to collaborate with Kota Kita, developing a digital database to map infrastructure projects in Solo. Daniel was heartened by the welcoming environment in Indonesia and at Kota Kita. “I really enjoyed my experience there. I was glad to learn about the government, culture and society of Indonesia, and to be able to see their similarities and differences with Mexico. I'm still impressed with how far and close those two places can be at the same time.”</p>

<h4>2009</h4>
<p><img class="modal-image img-responsive" src="./src/img/intern_thumb/Emly-Lesk.jpg">Emily interned while studying her Master of Architecture at Harvard University. She worked on the Solo Kota Kita community mapping project, helping to create maps and mini atlases that illustrate living conditions in Solo’s neighborhoods, including access to public services, income levels and child school attendance rates. She also researched the process of making batik, Indonesia’s celebrated hand-dyed textile, in a Solo neighborhood.</p>
<p>Emily now works for the city of San Francisco, facilitating real estate development projects that also aid economic development. “My favorite experience interning in Indonesia was riding my first becak (rickshaw) around the neighborhood of Kratonan to gather information for the mini atlas,” Emily said, referring to the historical area that once included the sultanate’s palace.</p>

<h4>2010</h4>
<p><img class="modal-image img-responsive" src="./src/img/intern_thumb/Olivia-Stinson.jpg">Olivia volunteered on the Solo Kota Kita project, helping to put together the maps and mini atlases, and to upload them onto a website for the community to access and use. She helped with the enormous task of editing and refining the maps before they went online. Olivia went to Haiti after her time in Indonesia to help with the earthquake reconstruction efforts and returned to her home country, the United States, to work on long-term recovery following a major flood disaster in Colorado.</p>
<p>She is now the Recovery Specialist for Planning with the Colorado Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management, working with two towns on their community-driven recovery plan after the 2013 floods, and a number of other mitigation and recovery planning projects across Colorado. She said she was excited to see Kota Kita grow in Indonesia. “The first data set Kota Kita started to develop was so basic, but it was so crucial,” Olivia said. “There weren't a lot of good maps or data sets for Solo, so doing any informed and substantiated planning or analysis would have been difficult without them. I loved being in Solo at the first Kota Kita office as well as getting to know that lovely city and spending time with the team eating sambal and bebek goreng! (fresh chili sauce and fried duck!)”</p>
