The Nature Hub hosted a series of panel discussions featuring diverse voices, such as representatives from the Bengkalis community, the Berau Regency Government, donor representatives, conservation activists, and alliances working in water resource conservation. One panel discussion centered on Community-Based Mangrove Ecological Restoration and Protection, engaging community representatives and local government partners.
