Built-in installation of this fireplace involves installing fireplace into a framed-in enclosure. This makes the front of fireplace flush with wall. An optional brass trim kit accessory is available (see Accessories, page 44). Brass trim will extend past sides of fireplace approximately 1/2 inch. This will cover the rough edges of the wall opening. If installing a built-in mantel above the fireplace, you must follow the clearances shown in Figure 12, page 12. Follow the instructions below to install the fireplace in this manner.

Desa CDCFNR, or the Community Development and Capacity Building Framework for Natural Resources, is a pioneering initiative designed to empower local communities in managing their natural resources sustainably. This comprehensive framework is particularly focused on fostering resilience and enhancing the socio-economic conditions of communities that depend on these resources.

One of the main features of Desa CDCFNR is its emphasis on community participation. The framework encourages active engagement of community members in decision-making processes, which ensures that the management of natural resources reflects the needs and aspirations of local populations. By involving communities, the framework promotes a sense of ownership, responsibility, and accountability towards natural resource management.

Technologically, Desa CDCFNR leverages various innovative tools and platforms to facilitate data collection, sharing, and analysis. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are utilized to map natural resources and analyze spatial patterns, which aids in effective planning and resource allocation. Mobile applications are also employed to engage community members, allowing them to report changes in resource availability or environmental conditions in real time. This use of technology ensures that data-driven decisions can be made promptly, leading to more adaptive management strategies.

Another notable characteristic of Desa CDCFNR is its integrated approach. It does not view natural resource management in isolation; instead, it recognizes the interplay between social, economic, and environmental factors. This holistic perspective ensures that interventions are designed to address multiple dimensions of sustainability, including economic development, environmental conservation, and social equity.

Capacity building is at the heart of the Desa CDCFNR initiative. Training programs and workshops are organized to enhance the skills of community members in areas such as sustainable farming practices, water management techniques, and biodiversity conservation. By building local capacities, the framework aims to equip communities with the necessary tools and knowledge to manage their resources effectively and adapt to changing environmental conditions.

In summary, Desa CDCFNR focuses on community engagement, harnesses technology for better resource management, adopts an integrated approach to sustainability, and emphasizes capacity building. Together, these features position Desa CDCFNR as a transformative framework in the realm of community-led natural resource management, paving the way for sustainable development and resilience in local communities.
