Description: In July 2005 a group of local farmers and residents set up the Kumitat għall-Ħarsien Rurali ta’ Għajn Tuffieħa (Committee for the Safeguard of Rural Life in Għajn Tuffieħa) with the aim of safeguarding the environment of Manikata and Għajn Tuffieħa from various so-called development projects. On the 24th of August 2007 the committee was dissolved and the same members set up the Koperattiva Rurali Manikata (KRM) Ltd. Their general aim was to put forward projects that would help to safeguard the natural, historical, social and economic environment and enable the general public to appreciate the natural beauty of the surroundings as well as agricultural life in Manikata. In March 2008 the Ministry for Rural Affairs and the Environment signed a management agreement with Koperattiva Rurali Manikata whereby KRM Ltd. will gradually restore the place called Ir- Razzett tal- Qasam. It is being converted into a services center for the members of the cooperative as well as for students, families and tourists who visit our fields. Today the cooperative is working on four projects: management of the Rural Heritage Trail; restoration of the Razzett tal-Qasam; restoration of the Armoury; and the promotion of local produce and typical food.

Description: Estonian Seminatural Community Conservation Association (ESCCA) is a nongovernmental organisation that was founded in 1997 in order to guarantee the maintenance of Estonian semi-natural communities. Semi-natural communities are traditional agricultural landscapes that include wooded meadows, alvars, floodplain meadows, coastal meadows, but also other meadows and pastures where grazing animals and mowing have been the only human activities. The ESCCA was brought into being due to the fact that the area of semi-natural communities has become marginal during the 20th century, consequently, the further existence of semi-natural communities as well as of species adapted to those conditions has become questionable. Through the maintenance of traditional rural landscapes ESCCA also supports the preservation of traditional village culture. The main activities of ESCCA include collecting information concerning semi-natural communities, organizing the protection and maintenance of those communities, and thirdly, introducing semi-natural communities to the larger audience.
