DAGAN

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Organized together with Rh. Dagan Long House since 2008. Iban tribe, the indigenous people in a tropical Sarawak state, have been living in a traditional way with the nature. Their traditional way of life became endangered as the local young people started to move to the city looking for jobs. In this workcamp, we will stay at the Rumah.Dagan Long House and learn about the traditional wisdom for them and revitalize the village!!

💼 What the programme involves

We will maintain the roads, the footpath and the waterway with concrete as there are frequent landslides, share with the local people about how to sort garbage out since the village is quite far away from the city and does not have a proper garbage collecting system.
