David Halim

Consultant

David Halim is a consultant on the Sustainable Commodities team. He specializes in supplier engagement, the NDPE Implementation Reporting Framework, and the implementation of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards and EUDR compliance for Indonesian clients.

David holds a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science (S.Kom) from Mikroskil University.

Before joining 3Keel, David spent over seven years in the Sustainability Department of a multinational palm oil company. His work focused on traceability, meeting client sustainability requirements, and conducting fieldwork to map supply chains and engage directly with palm oil companies—down to the smallholder level. His efforts included capacity-building activities, such as raising awareness about NDPE (No Deforestation, No Peat, No Exploitation) commitments and addressing grievances where necessary.

His passion for sustainability was sparked by the increasing global challenges of climate change and deforestation. He is driven to help palm oil companies operate not only more sustainably, but also more productively.

Outside of work, David enjoys playing badminton and exploring culinary experiences, which help him maintain a healthy work-life balance.
