Kampung Katong Festival: Producing Local Knowledge in Building Our Villages
Through Kampung Katong and the spirit of decolonisation, the initiative sought to position local reality as the main reference in solving problems faced by the community on a daily basis. Local knowledge and identity become the compass in resolving socio-environmental problems and enriching culture, education, community welfare, and the sustainability of living spaces and livelihoods. This process takes place by involving young people, women, indigenous peoples and ethnic minorities, and local citizens as key actors enabling cross-generational contextual learning.
