The Northern Park Friends

Once upon a time, in the beautiful northern park of Lao PDR, there were communities living in harmony with nature. They loved their land and wanted to keep it healthy for their families.

One day, they noticed some problems. The rivers were not as clean as before, and the soil was getting tired. Their crops didn't grow as well, and it was harder to find enough food.

Sad faces, dirty water, and wilted plants

But instead of giving up, the communities decided to work together to solve the problems. They formed a group called 'The Northern Park Friends'.

The Northern Park Friends had a brilliant idea. They started collecting rainwater and built a system to filter it. Now they had clean water for drinking and farming!

To take care of the soil, the communities learned about composting. They gathered food scraps and leaves to make rich compost. Their crops became healthier and grew stronger!

The Northern Park Friends also knew that planting trees could help the environment. They started a tree nursery and planted thousands of trees to give shelter to animals and keep the air clean.

They shared their knowledge with other communities nearby, teaching them about clean water, composting, and tree planting. Now, more people were taking care of the land together!

With everyone working together, the rivers became clean again, the crops were abundant, and the landscape was even more beautiful than before. The communities had enough food for everyone and a healthy environment.

The Northern Park Friends felt proud of what they had achieved. They knew that by solving problems together, they could make a big difference.
