Forest Village in Sira Village, West Papua

One year ago (March 2017), Sira villagers received the permission of village forest management, to start to learn how to process the sago and other commodities from the forest to make it more valuable so it can help boost the economy of their villages.
Manggroholo and Sira villages in South Sorong, West Papua managed to obtain permission of village forest management. The first village forest in Papua brings new hope for the protection of the paradise of biodiversity in the world, now it has seen its destruction by the expansion of oil palm plantations and pulp. Greenpeace have advocated these villagers to get the permission for this forest village since 2008.
