Ciwaluh is Heading for Organic Certification

Even though the life style and farming system of Ciwaluh community is done naturally and in harmony with the nature, it is still not an easy thing to get international acknowledgment as a community with organic way of living and producing.

Nangela, the new Writhe of Organic Village

Nangela is one of the kampongs of Desa Pabangon, Leuwiliang SubDistrict, Bogor. Nangela has a population of 150 families or 700 people. It is 15 kilometres away from the capital of Kecamatan Leuwiliang. The kampong is surrounded by Perhutani forest area. Nevertheless, since 2002, the status of forest area has changed into Gunung Halimun-Salak National Park area. Being isolated and far from nearest towns, nangela is not as much touched by development projects. Eventhough the village can be reached by motorbike or car, but the condition of the road which is heavily damaged hampered the resource mobilisation stripe.
