The Assembly

Jack represented us at the Evangelical Church of Maraland’s Assembly at Chhuarlung during the penultimate week of February 2010. Over 2,000 people attended the event. 


We put up our recently developed posters and photographs at tea-stalls, water-points and other public locations. These posters along with the wildlife magazines that we  took along helped foster interactions with people. The focus of our approach has been to encourage dialogues on conserving the amazing wildlife that Marland harbours rather than give messages.


We shared reports (English and Mizo) with leaders of MTP, teachers in schools and Pu Hiato (Mizoram minister for Tourism, PHE and Industry). While the Mizo report was a shorter version of the Annual Activity Report the English reports talked of our recent actions. Discussions were also held with MTP leaders about Samrakshan’s actions (conservation education as also participatory research) and approach regarding wildlife conservation in Maraland.


Jack returned enthused; ready with role he would play in the upcoming MTP conference.
