Eco- Social Development Initiatives Community environment and climate change adaptation and mitigation through community museums and heritage gardens.

Our approach utilizes an Eco-social semiotic theory that relates to signs in the world and how they come to derive meaning, which embraces an active, embodied view of perception. The theory proposes that the organisms and the environment in which they live are intertwined to the extent that one shapes the other, and at its most basic level one implies the other.
In relation to human activity, objectives and environments take on multiple layers of social interpretation through the complex and dynamic coupling of individuals to cultural historical forces and their material circumstances
Thus a community museum can offer knowledge about our past through artifacts, the Heritage garden provides us with a living museum which can in turn inspires us to view and learn about the environment comparatively. This in turn reshapes our thinking and awareness about environment conservation for climate change adaptation and mitigation.
