The Dmakeiukl Alliance is conducting a series of community awareness meetings across its states to update local residents on ongoing conservation programs and activities. The latest meeting was held in Koksai, Ngatpang, on Thursday, November 14, 2024, and is the third such meeting this year. These gatherings are a vital part of the Dmakeiukl States’ conservation initiatives, helping to build the capacity of Rangers, Conservation Officers, and PAN Coordinators, who have received training in facilitating community meetings and managing conservation projects.
The meeting in Ngatpang brought together community members from the four Dmakeiukl states. Governor Jersey Iyar opened the event, welcoming participants and setting the stage for discussions on ongoing conservation work. PAN Coordinator Reva Ilemelong then introduced the rangers from Dmakeiukl and provided an overview of the three key conservation sites in Ngatpang: Oruaol Ibuchel, Olterukl, and Iuul.
