Because this will also have a significant impact on\nminimising violence against women and children,\u201d said Ossy.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that the Ministry of PPPA is expected to first determine\nthe most suitable location for the programme.<\/p>\n<p>For idle land, its handling falls under the authority of the Ministry\nof ATR\/BPN.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, for land owned by other institutions such as the TNI,\nSOEs, or local governments, certainty of clean and clear status as well\nas approval for release from the owner is required before it can be\nutilised.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor land that is not idle land, it must be voluntarily released by\nthem, then released to the state, and then its utilisation can be given\nto the Ministry of PPPA to be handed over to whoever the subject will be\ngiven to. There is also the Land Bank, which may require coordination\nwith the Land Bank Agency,\u201d explained Ossy.<\/p>\n<p>The KPLP is an initiative to empower women through community-based\nfood garden management.<\/p>\n<p>Deputy Minister of PPPA Veronica Tan stated that this programme\naligns with the human resource development agenda, including gender\nequality and women\u2019s empowerment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis Women\u2019s Local Food Garden can serve as a practical learning\nplatform, from fulfilling nutrition to productive activities. In fact,\nit can also become an educational space for children, with women as the\nmain drivers,\u201d Veronica concluded.<\/p>",
