Stakeholder-community engagement integrates diverse perspectives, local knowledge, and cultural values into green social infrastructure, reflecting the community's identity.

The outcome of this research provides insight to stakeholders on their roles in incorporating sustainable practices that aligns with community needs, which in turn
