MEGHALAYA BASIN MANAGEMENT AGENCY

COMMUNITY LED LANDSCAPE MANAGEMENT PROJECT (CLLMP)

The Government of Meghalaya with financial help from the World Bank is implementing the Meghalaya Community Led Landscape Management Project (MCLLMP). The project will cover the manner throughout the state. The Meghalaya Basin Management Agency (MBMA) will facilitate community-led planning by providing support, technical inputs and funding.

The project is intended to strengthen Community Led Natural Resources Management in selected landscapes within the 7 districts of the state. This would be achieved through a variety of planning, capacity building, and on-the-ground interventions to promote the conservation, sustainable use of natural resources, social inclusion and community mobilisation; building traditional knowledge and learning, mapping of natural resources management; strengthening the community institutions and creating linkage with financial institutions and community organisations.

The project interventions will include preparation of community led natural resource management plans. The CLLMP has the following three components:

1. Strengthening Knowledge and Capacity of Communities for Natural Resources Management

2. Community-Led Landscape Planning and Implementation

3. Project Management and Governance

The project objective is “to manage and conserve the natural resources especially forests, soil and water sources, in a manner that supports the financial and physical well-being of communities in the State”

SCOPE

The CLLM-Programme focuses on increasing the capacities of communities and traditional institutions (TI) by adopting a landscape approach to manage their natural resources such as soil, springs and other water sources, forests and bio-diversity, etc.
The project will be planned and implemented in about 400 villages across the state.
CLLMP has a strong focus on institution-building at the village-level, by ensuring systematic capacity-building on technical and social skill-sets.
The project will also extend such training to communities beyond the targeted villages and support efforts made by them to access funding from various rural and natural resources initiatives and schemes.

The programme will also invest in improving the process and outcome delivery, by developing and adhering to effective systems and procedures, supported by the appropriate technology.

BENEFITS

Benefits for community (Skills and Capacity relating to technical and managerial areas like NRM and Conflict resolution
Benefits to traditional institutions (village councils, traditional leaders, community-based organizations, SHGs etc) through Knowledge sharing, promotion of innovative approach, access to technology, technical managerial and financial support.
It is estimated that the project will impact around 1 lakh partners (of which 50% are women) who depend on land, forest, agro forestry.
Through the project, 55000 Ha of targeted area will be ensured with availability of water, biological resources and soil productivity, which will in turn benefit around 400 villages and the outcomes delivery can be summarized as follows.

IMPLEMENTATION AGENCY:

The Project will be executed by the MBMA in collaboration with other partners particularly, SIRD (for training and capacity building), Department of Soil and Water Conservation, Water Resource Department, Forest Department, specifically with respect to technical inputs, safeguards management and Community NRM plan preparation

$C:\Users\User\Downloads\2. Occupation.png$

Occupation:

The large portion of the population is mostly farmers and daily wage earners.

$C:\Users\User\Downloads\3. Key constraints in the Village.png$

Irrigation Water: There is shortage of water starting from the month of March till Mid-April and some farmers need to carry drinking water in containers to water their vegetables in their kitchen gardens which are located almost 1km away from the village.

Drinking Water: Most of the springs which are located in the village tend to dry up from December to April and the people then have to rely on springs which are located further away from the village.

Access to LPG: The people need to travel to Rymbai village (which is 17kms away) just to get a refilled cylinder.

Soil erosion is very common as most of the landscapes are highly degraded due to deforestation, overgrazing etc.
Crop infestation due to pest is one of the major challenges the farmers of Pynurkba have faced these past few years.

GROUND TRUTHING

Dated: 2^nd August 2019

As Krem Myrsiang village falls under the NESAC list, the DPMU team met with the local headman to gather information about the village and conducted site verification. This village was also suggested by the Deputy Commissioner of East Jaintia Hills District and BDO of Khliehriat Block.

Case Findings: -

1. There are 4 springs which the whole community highly depend on and these springs tend to dry up during the winter season. So during this dry period, the people depend on other privately owned springs for drinking water and streams which are located far away from the village for washing clothes.

2. Shifting cultivation is the main agricultural practice and this has resulted to soil becoming highly infertile and loose.

3. There is one particular stream, Um Walieh, which has been polluted due to domestic waste.

4. Huge areas of paddy fields are left un-irrigated as the source of water is either unavailable or further away from the fields.

5. The productivity of the land is decreasing with each passing year.

SENSITIZATION PROGRAMME

The sensitization programme at Pynurkba Village took place on the 2^nd August 2019 at the Community Hall of Pynurkba Village. The Secretary of Pynurkba village, Mr. Hamlet Pdang presided over the programme. A total of 33 particpants attended the sensitization program.

$F:\KM\Images\PRA\EJHD\Khliehriat Block\Pynurkba\IMG_1290.JPG$ The Assistant Manager (Social Management) gave a detailed introduction to the Community led Landscape Management Project (CLLMP) and the different procedures that the villagers and the CLLMP team should carry out during the course of the project and the importance of the involvement of the community for the CLLM-Project to be a success.

The Assistant Manager (Monitoring & Evaluation) gave a brief introduction on Meghalaya Basin Management Agency (MBMA) and elucidated about the various programmes and projects that MBMA is working on, but mainly focused on the Community Led Landscape Management Project (CLLMP). He also spoke about the different aspects and procedures of the project and gave due importance on the environmental aspects of the project.

The Assistant Manager (Social Management) spoke on the social aspects of the Community Led Landscape Management Project by giving numerous examples. He also enlightened the various benefits that the villagers could obtain from the project.

The Program was followed by an interactive session to answer the doubts and questions of the villagers.

Can this project be implemented on individual land?

Ans: Yes, but there should be an agreement signed between the land owner and the VNRMC before

implementing any NRM related activity.

Does this project only concentrate on conservation?

Ans: No, there are different NRM activities which can be implemented but this project mainly focuses

on capacity building and training the community people

$F:\KM\Images\PRA\EJHD\Khliehriat Block\Pynurkba\IMG_1331.JPG$ Signing of Documents: After the sensitization programme, all the participants signed the Citizens Green charter banner. The EOI, VGA and Citizens Green Charter documents were signed on 8^th August 2019 during a public meeting (Dorbar shnong) in the presence of the entire village

Formation of the VNRMC

The Formation of the Village Natural Resource Management Committee was done in a public meeting (Dorbar Shnong) in the presence of the entire village on 17^th August 2019. The community itself chose the Chairman, the Secretary and the other executive members of the Committee.

4. PRA EXERCISE & PREPARATION OF CNRMP

18^th – 25^th AUGUST 2020

Dated – 18^th August 2020

Venue: Pynurkba Community Hall

The PRA exercise aims to incorporate the knowledge and opinions of the community in the planning and management of development projects and programmes. There were a total of 65 participants taking part in this exercise who contributed their time and knowledge to this project.

i) Drawing of the Resource and Social Map Duration: 2hrs 45 mins

$D:\Pynurkba\IMG20200818121348.jpg$

Shri. Philip Rymbai, Smt. Monday Pdang, Smt. Taimon Pdang, Shri. Rass Rymbai, Shri Peterson Dkhar participated in drawing the resource and social map of Pynurkba village. They started by drawing the roads, the village boundary, then the landmarks, the community forest, the rivers/streams and lastly the springs. With time, the map design got better and better as more participants got involved and shared their inputs. The DPMU and SPMU team made the participants understand that by drawing the resource map, they would have greater knowledge on the location and distribution of their available resources.

ii. Re-orientation session on preparation of CNRM plan

$D:\Pynurkba\20200818154041_IMG_4399.JPG$

The purpose of this session is to revisit the CNRM plan and to identify all the key areas in the plan that needs improvement and reworked. The topics of discussions are as follows:

The major issue with old plan was that it was very limited and the DPD advised the VNRMC members to work with DPMU team in order to prepare a new plan that exceeds more than 10 years.
The plan should not be focussed only on water conservation but also on other interventions such as Land productivity enhancement, Agro-forestry activities, Community nurseries and Capacity building.
All the plans should relate with one another.
There is a huge area of cultivable wasteland (587.26 ha) that can be reclaimed and by practicing Agro-forestry can benefit and improve the livelihoods of the farmers.
It is important to know the area of the intervention site before implementing any activity.
Before any afforestation activity, it it important to first identify the nature of the soil in order for the VNRMC to have a better idea on the types of tree species which can survive in their village. If the proposed afforestation site is far away from the village, the DPD suggested in identifying tree species which cattle and goats don’t like to feed on.
Proper management of the available forest is needed to avoid any over exploitation such as unnecessary felling of trees for firewood.

Preparation of CNRMP in Pynurkba Village

Dated – 21^th August 2020

Group 1 – Preparation of Seasonal Calendar

$D:\Pynurkba\IMG20200821163244.jpg$

Findings as per the Seasonal Calendar:

	January – June	July - December

Group 3 – Problem Analysis

$D:\Pynurkba\IMG20200821171425.jpg$

Findings:

At present, there are no constraints to access of fodder, fuel wood and fodder but the participants’ belief that with time and with increase in population they will eventually start decreasing.
Some of the water bodies are polluted due to domestic waste, siltation and also turn up dry during the winter season.
According to Kong Taimon Pdang, there is always a shortage of drinking water starting from the month of November till April and then the community has to depend on water bodies which are 2 to 3 km away from the village.
As seen on the map below, a large portion of the land is highly degraded and therefore soil erosion and open/degraded forest is common. Shifting cultivation, growth in population, open grazing etc. are some of the causes to this degradation.
To cope with the increase in population, the people had to adapt from the traditional agricultural practices to a modern approach by using machines, fertilizers, pesticides etc.
Due to water scarcity, most of the land is left uncultivated and then they are prone to soil erosion. Climate change has deeply affected farmers as most of their crops would get damaged by heavy rainfall and pest proliferation.
There are no proper drains for domestic effluents and the runoff ends up polluting some water bodies.
Most of the conflicts and disagreements are resolved during the village dorba

Group 4 – Identification of Intervention Sites

$D:\Pynurkba\IMG20200821181230.jpg$ $D:\Pynurkba\IMG20200821181352.jpg$

Findings based on the discussions:

According to Shri. Ebormiki Dkhar, the VNRMC should first prioritise in constructing a retaining wall to prevent soil erosion in SSA Lower primary school.
The participants all agreed on the construction of a spring chamber in Khlieh Umwar which is a community spring.
Shri. Hamlet Pdang suggested on construction of a spring chamber in Daitharoh and also a loose boulder around the spring to prevent any soil erosion.
Shri Rass Rymbai and Shri. Philip Pdang suggested on building a check dam in Khlieh Umwar which is one of the streams the local community highly depend on.
The participants suggested Mooprah as the best site for Agro-forestry, Loose boulder check dam and Jalkund for rain water harvesting
As there is a community forest and agricultural land in Puriang (a site), Smt. Taimon Pdang and Shri. Philip Rymbai suggested a need of a dug out pond, a community nursery and a composting area.
Larshah site was also suggested for horticulture practice.

The Asst. Manager Knowledge Management prepared a presentation based on the activities completed and this was presented by the ADPM. The DPD and GM gave their inputs and remarks which are as follows:

According to the GM Knowledge Management there is a lack of information under Problem Analysis with women/vulnerable groups.
The DPD NRM suggested the VNRMC and DPMU team to identify sites where earthen dams can be built as the materials required are available in the village and also the design is relatively simple.
He also advised the VNRMC to work with the DPMU team to identity the local tree species and their usage.
In Puriang, a proposed intervention site, the DPD advised to treat the landscape following the ridge to valley approach.
For any afforestation site which is located far away from the village, he suggested of planting only those tree species which cattle and goats do not like to feed upon.

With the help of Shri. Dren Pdang, a senior resident of the village, the Asst. Manager Knowledge Management was able to document the timeline of the village on the social and development aspects.

ii. Problem Analysis with the Women/Vulnerable Group

$D:\Pynurkba\20200825175506_IMG_4437.JPG$

Findings:

The community women are involved in decision making but there also some instances where only men are involved.
Part of the Dorbar: The participant agreed that at present the village women have come forward to take part in meetings and also be members of the local governing body (dorbar shnong committee).
Water problems: the problems related to water have always been highlighted but the women feel that they are the ones who are most vulnerable especially during the winter season as they have to walk a long distance just to fetch water which is stressful and time consuming.
Sanitation: The participants feel that the village needs to do more to improve as there is no proper drainage system for domestic effluents. These effluents end up contaminating water bodies such as springs and streams which can cause severe health problems.
When asked about the different interventions proposed they all agreed that solving the water crisis of the village should be the number one priority and doing that will help improve all livelihood activities.
