Bangladesh Environment and Development Society (BEDS) team is taking commendable steps to protect plantation sites through active community engagement. They are working closely with local residents to raise awareness and encourage participation in conservation efforts. At each plantation site, the BEDS team is effectively mobilizing local resources and involving community members to ensure long-term protection of the environment. They have established regular monthly and courtyard meetings, which serve as platforms to educate and motivate locals about the importance of conserving these areas. This initiative not only strengthens environmental protection but also empowers the community to take ownership of local conservation activities. Overall, the consistent involvement of the community, guided by Bangladesh Environment and Development Society (BEDS), plays a crucial role in sustaining and safeguarding plantation sites. The local community has begun visiting our plantation areas to monitor the progress of the trees that have been planted. They are carefully observing whether the trees are growing well or experiencing any difficulties. In cases where problems are identified, the community actively seeks technical support from us and takes necessary actions to address the issues. A notable example of this initiative can be seen in the Laodob Badamtola area, where the community is demonstrating exemplary efforts in conservation and protection activities. Their proactive involvement serves as a model for others, and their success has begun to inspire neighboring communities to take similar action. This growing participation reflects a positive shift towards environmental responsibility and community-driven stewardship, which will greatly contribute to the long-term success of the plantation efforts.
If we are able to scale up the support for expanding community-based conservation and plantation protection initiatives, these activities will have a significant impact on our communities, ensuring the continued success of conservation and protection efforts. So that the funding support will make an impactful change in the society.
