Description: OISCA, The Organization for Industrial Spiritual and Cultural Advancement International, works to contribute to environmentally sustainable development through a holistic approach emphasizing the interconnectedness of agriculture, ecological integrity, and human spirit. To accomplish this, OISCA International implements and advocates hands-on experiential programs for world citizens of all ages, transmitting knowledge and skills, and cultivating spiritual qualities as dedication, self-reliance, and universal brother- sisterhood. “Industrial” refers to the promotion of agriculture and other primary industries that are fundamental to human existence. “Spiritual” does not denote a particular religion but rather the need to nurture qualities such as self-reliance, dedication for one`s own community, international brother-sisterhood and respect for Earth`s ecological integrity on which life is grounded. “Cultural” represents the intent to encourage the magnificent cultural diversity that has enriched human life and the universal need to promote cultural patterns such as culture of peace. Originally formed in 1972, the Japan Asian Association & Asian Friendship Society (JAFS) focuses on providing sustainable and safe drinking water to rural communities in South and South East Asia through building wells, pipelines and related infrastructure. As an international cooperation group, JAFS also provides disaster relief to the victims of catastrophic natural events throughout Asia.

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.
