The study was to investigate stakeholders and roles, undertaken a SWOT analysis, and evaluation expectations, as well as developed awareness in order to generate cooperation by academic forum and focus groups and improved NREM Strategies of the local government office. The data were gathered by using qualitative, including interviews and focus groups, and quantitative, with questionnaires. The results showed:
