From improved village administration to expanded spaces for community activities, Jawalla in Region Seven is translating development resources into infrastructure designed to serve its residents.
The village has invested a combined $137 million in two major facilities: a $122 million village multi-purpose centre and a newly constructed $15 million Village Council Office, financed through the Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS) and village funds.
The Ministry of Amerindian Affairs, on Wednesday, shared a video on its Facebook page featuring Toshao Verron Henry-Williams, who outlined how the village utilised its LCDS allocation to construct the new Village Council Office.
