=== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ===
Raghdan forest covers an area of 600,000 square meters in Al-Baha Province. Al- Baha City lies in the south-west of the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Raghadan forest is one of more than forty reserved zones called (Hema) which is a traditional sustainable recourse management system. Tribal people live in this region and traditionally every tribe have their own (Hema) or reserved zone.
Raghadan case is very interesting because the public participation in this project was enforced and very demanding. So, this is not the formal procedure of the local municipality to allow public participating in the planning process specially in this area, but this is very special case.

=== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ===
Raghdan forest covers an area of 600,000 square meters in Al-Baha Province. Al- Baha City lies in the south-west of the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Raghadan forest is one of more than forty reserved zones called (Hema) which is a traditional sustainable recourse management system. Tribal people live in this region and traditionally every tribe have their own (Hema) or reserved zone.
Raghadan case is very interesting because the public participation in this project was enforced and very demanding. So, this is not the formal procedure of the local municipality to allow public participating in the planning process specially in this area, but this is very special case.

=== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ===
Raghdan forest covers an area of 600,000 square meters in Al-Baha Province. Al- Baha City lies in the south-west of the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Raghadan forest is one of more than forty reserved zones called (Hema) which is a traditional sustainable recourse management system. Tribal people live in this region and traditionally every tribe have their own (Hema) or reserved zone.
Raghadan case is very interesting because the public participation in this project was enforced and very demanding. So, this is not the formal procedure of the local municipality to allow public participating in the planning process specially in this area, but this is very special case.

1-Experts Committee (University group work)

=== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ===
Raghdan forest covers an area of 600,000 square meters in Al-Baha Province. Al- Baha City lies in the south-west of the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Raghadan forest is one of more than forty reserved zones called (Hema) which is a traditional sustainable recourse management system. Tribal people live in this region and traditionally every tribe have their own (Hema) or reserved zone.
Raghadan case is very interesting because the public participation in this project was enforced and very demanding. So, this is not the formal procedure of the local municipality to allow public participating in the planning process specially in this area, but this is very special case.

[[Image:Example_dasilva_processbio.jpg|none|frame|Process biography example]]

=== Who initiated the project and why? ===
This project was initiated by tribe leaders when they complain about the forest condition to the governor. In fact, Raghadan Forest suffered from several ecological stresses due to random construction and recreational activities planned by the local municipality.

Citizen meeting, survey, interviews, expert and governmental representative meeting, round table.
==== On which level of participation? ====
Based on the tools that have been used,it is Co-Thinking level. However, I think it could reach the Co-deciding level in some stages.

=== Which stakeholders have been involved? ===
Three committees were formed by the city governor:
1-Experts Committee (University group work)
2-Hema Trustee Committee( elected group of local community)
3-Coordination Committee (government agencies representatives)
