Working ProcessBasic information for
problem solving
• Hill tribe people who had the conscience for conserving the forest and other natural resources, but were faced with poverty as well as lack of cultivated land, to live in this area. – Qualified participants must be:
•Poor •Landless who make a living from hiring
out;•Not involved with drugs.
Key Interventions• Land settlementLand settlement: each household was allocated
approximately 2 rai (0.8 acres) of land for cultivation. The people obtained knowledge suitable for their agricultural occupation and possessed positive concern for the conservation of the natural resources.
• Water source management: Building check dam and transferring water from natural creeks to bamboo pipe for household consumption as well as through small irrigation channel for agricultural activities.
• Food security: a village rice bank was set up to ensure a sufficient amount of rice for the people to eat during off-harvest season.
• Health: trained village’s health volunteer to take care of the people’s health and sanitation matters.
• Education: providing compulsory education & non-formal education.
Persistence paid off
