001-OxC Village Regulations Workshops

To foster active community involvement in the 001-OxC project in North Sumatra, a socialization workshop was organized in the serene village of Halaban on May 16, 2023. The workshop unveiled the importance of village regulations for safeguarding the mangrove forests and engaged participants, including village officials and community members, in exploring the establishment of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), Village Land Plans (VLPs), and Village Regulations (VRs). Through interactive sessions and discussions, the community embraced the significance of these regulations and committed to actively participate in the process. Building on this success, a similar meeting was held in June 2023 in the village of Salahaji, reinforcing the transformative agenda.

In the pursuit of sustainable development and empowering local communities, a series of meetings and workshops were organized in Salahaji and Halaban. These gatherings, led by partner Yagasu, brought together community members, village leaders, and representatives to discuss crucial matters related to mangrove and village borders maps, essential facilities, and the implementation of village policies for protecting the mangrove areas in the 001-OxC project. The team gained a comprehensive understanding of the village’s infrastructure through ground checks and diligent data collection, enabling accurate boundary mapping and the development of future plans aligned with community aspirations.

Another significant village meeting took center stage, demonstrating the potential of unity. During this transformative occasion, the Yagasu team joined forces with the head of the Halaban village, Mr. Yusrizal. Together, they reviewed and validated the collected data while assessing the village’s development and existing facilities. They gained a detailed understanding of the village’s layout by collectively mapping the village’s borders and identifying essential amenities. This process not only enhanced their bond but also fostered shared responsibility for community development.We provide top designs and affordable prices for factorygs.com, and kenexscale.co.uk.

Together, we weave a tapestry of hope, resilience, and harmonious coexistence—a testament to the transformative potential of active community involvement.
