The first session in the marketing training was conducted by Mr. I Gede Nandya Oktora P., SE, MBA, CRA, CRP as a FEB Unud Lecturer which consisted of material presentation sessions and discussion sessions with the local community of course followed by trying to practice what the first speaker had explained .

Followed by the speaker Mr. Ir. Lanang Aryawan, MMA as Head of the Plantation Division of the Bali Province Agriculture and Food Security Service.

Same as before, but for the practice of selecting coffee beans, it will be done later considering that the coffee plant is not yet ready to harvest.

It didn't stop there, the WIDA PHP2D Team had also collaborated with the Health Office and the Bangli Regency Investment and One Stop Integrated Service Office regarding the application for PIRT.

In addition to collaborating with the department, the WIDA team also collaborates with the BEM FEB Unud organization and also private institutions related to coffee bags and roasted beans which will be the flagship products of Mengani Village.

All work programs that have been planned by the WIDA Team together with their supervisors will end in November where the final activity of this work program is the delivery of machines, materials for PIRT submissions, and of course they will practice making products and marketing these products to the wider community.
