Recently, I have been working on the Luangwa Integrated Development Plan (IDP) with my coworkers. The IDP is a multidimensional planning approach to fulfill the overall development of the specific area, including physical, social, economic and institutional sectors. This plan will be used to guide the growth, development and management of Luangwa District effectively.
The Luangwa IDP project has started in 2008 but we are still at the second phase of the development (we are actually combining the second phase and the third / last phase, so we are getting close to complete the project). We are really hoping to finish it by the end of this year so that we can focus on the IDP for the remaining districts.
Among those components of the phase 2 (Spatial Development Framework), I focused on the formulation of the spatial development framework. All the three proposals, in detail three kinds of land use maps as well as infrastructure maps, for the IDP were done by the time I started working here. Although I was assigned to write an entire chapter about those proposals by myself, it was not as easy since I was not there when those proposals were made and needed to assume quite a lot of things by examining those maps.
Fortunately, my coworkers were kind enough to help me out and gave me a lot of inputs. So, I managed myself to finish writing the chapter.
Of course I was aware that he write-ups that I did was just a zero draft and needs to be edited. However, I was quite happy that I did something at least to hep develop the district of Luangwa in a long run!
