The Outpost : Bundside Preservation

Outpost refers to a small group of buildings or towns representing the authority or business interests of a government or company far away.
The “Outpost” intervention aims to preserve landscapes by encouraging community engagement in responsible mangrove forests and agro-system management. It bridges the gap between commons and creates infrastructure for collective practice, preserving the mangrove landscape and maintaining a healthy balance between the community and the wetland landscape in Salvador Do Mundo. This intervention operates as a small maintenance camp, with occasional visits from communities and research labs monitoring the mangrove and bund stretch. The approach involves minimal maintenance at monthly rates, preserving the landscape, and avoiding the need for large facilities.
