Green innovation for sustainable urban ecosystems: Overcoming challenges and promoting eco-friendly practices
Get PDFBackground: Urban expansion has led to severe environmental degradation, often outpacing sustainability efforts. Green innovation, which integrates eco-friendly technology and economic models, offers a solution. However, its success depends on human involvement, including policymakers, scientists, and engineers. This study examines the role of humans in implementing green innovation in Jabodetabek, a densely populated and economically active region in Indonesia. Methods: This research employs a literature review to analyze existing studies on green innovation, focusing on its application in urban areas, particularly Jabodetabek. The review identifies key challenges and opportunities related to the adoption of green innovation in densely populated regions. By synthesizing the findings, the study examines the role of human involvement—policymakers, scientists, engineers, and communities—in overcoming obstacles and promoting green innovation. Findings: The findings reveal that while green innovation is essential for creating a sustainable urban ecosystem, its implementation in Jabodetabek faces three major obstacles: lack of public awareness, high implementation costs, and regulatory uncertainty. Limited understanding among the public slows adoption, while significant financial investment is required to develop and apply green technologies. Additionally, inconsistent policies create barriers to implementation. To address these challenges, collaboration between the government, private sector, academics, and communities is crucial. Three main factors can accelerate the adoption of green innovation: strengthening regulations to support sustainability, developing better funding mechanisms to encourage investment, and promoting lifestyle changes that encourage eco-friendly habits. Conclusion: Green innovation is vital for sustainable cities, and human efforts play a key role in its success. In Jabodetabek, systematic and collaborative action can overcome obstacles and enhance both environmental and social well-being. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study highlights the role of humans in green innovation, emphasizing collaboration, commitment, and creativity, and explores how human efforts can drive sustainability in urban areas
Urban governance and sustainability barriers in Indonesia: Tracking the forward policy design
Get PDFBackground: Indonesia’s urban governance and sustainability reveal a significant barrier to the concretization in the field.

Prevention of disaster triggered by crowd surge: comparative insights in selected countries and Indonesia
Get PDFIntroduction: Hazards, whether caused by natural or human activities, can potentially lead to disaster. In 2015, the United Nations (UN) at its conference in Sendai, Japan established a framework related to disaster risk reduction to be guided until 2030. However, disaster management related to human-induced hazards has received less attention. The Covid-19 pandemic that has been overcome has made restrictions on human movement begin to loosen. With the increase in travel between regions, countries, and continents, people began to form crowds at events related to religion, entertainment, sports, and other activities. A poorly managed crowd develops into an uncontrolled crowd or riot, and disaster ensues. This paper aims to develop alternative prevention efforts so that similar disasters do not occur in the future. Methods: The method of this paper is a literature review and systematic content analysis of previous scientific articles and research. First, the paper describes disasters at planned events such as music concerts in Texas, United States, and less planned ones such as the Halloween festival in Seoul, South Korea. Then the countermeasures of the two events were compared with the incident in Malang, Indonesia. Finding: The result is that strong cooperation between related parties is needed in organizing events to maintain community safety. The use of technology and tightening regulations can be factors supporting the prevention of this disaster. Increasing the capacity of communities to deal with similar disaster risks is still not widely discussed, so further research is needed. Conclusion: Islamic science is a comprehensive paradigm, similar to Western science, that can serve as a framework for scientists from various fields of knowledge. The Islamic paradigm attempts to critique the concept of universality, which has been one of the values embraced by the Western scientific paradigm. This concept has been one of the reasons why scientific revolutions have occurred slowly
