Event: Plantation drive, hands‑on conservation and PRA follow‑up actions Date: 16 October 2025 (Day 3 field action) Location: Building near Shiva temple, Nakati, Raipur, Chhattisgarh (GPS in photos) Team: Priyansh (team lead), Rajesh (field lead, documented digging), RAWE group members (photos attached)
Executive summary
A high‑energy plantation drive executed alongside PRA follow‑up. The team planted saplings around the community building near the Shiva temple, engaged villagers on care and protection, and documented the activity with GPS‑stamped photos and timestamps. The action tied directly to Day‑2 insights: selecting species and placements that support dairy livelihoods and community utility.
Activities carried out
- Opening: team photo on the building steps beside the Shiva temple (start/end anchor shot).
- Pit preparation and planting: Rajesh led digging; team mixed soil, planted saplings, staked and watered them.
- Community engagement: short interviews and discussions on watering responsibilities, grazing protection, and species choice.
- Documentation: GPS‑stamped photos, timestamps, and brief interview notes for record.
- Site context and rationale
- Planting locations chosen around the building and open patches to maximize visibility and community ownership.
- Given most households run dairy operations (1–2 cows), we prioritized species that offer shade and potential fodder value and that establish quickly in the local microclimate.
- The site is temple‑centred and compact; plantings aimed for multifunctional utility (shade, windbreak, fodder).
Immediate outcomes
- Saplings planted at strategic spots recorded in photographs (see attached images).
- Local volunteers identified and committed to a short‑term watering rota.
- GPS‑stamped photographic log and timestamps archived for verification.
- Practical observations from the field
- High team coordination and energy resulted in effective execution within the morning window.
- Villagers asked specific, actionable questions on post‑plant care, indicating willingness to protect saplings.
- Temporary grazing and stray animal pressure identified as primary early threat to sapling survival.
