Signifikansi Desentralisasi Kehutanan Bagi Implementasi REDD+ di Kabupaten Maluku Tengah
Get PDFIndonesia is one of the world’s most promising countries for the implementation of policies for reduced deforestation as an element in climate change mitigation. REDD+ has been established as a recognized recipe for international cooperation and economic funds transfer for tropical forest conservation. However, the implementation of REDD+, in Indonesia and elsewhere, is slow to materialize and meets lots of skepticism. Special challenges are related to site selection and opportunity costs, tenure and land conflicts, income distribution, and adjustments to cultural contexts and respect for indigenous peoples’ rights. This paper takes as a starting point some empirical studies of potential implementation of REDD+ projects in Maluku Tengah district, Indonesia. We conclude that REDD+ implementation will enhance elogical and economic benefits in the society. The paper will then discuss how forest decentralization needs to be promoted to facilitate for REDD+ implementation in Indonesia
Optimising Community-Based Forest Management Policy In Indonesia: A Critical Review
Get PDFCommunity-based forest management (CBFM) is a popular concept in many countries, covering over 400 million hectares worldwide. In Indonesia, CBFM is viewed as an important component of the forestry sector with the government’s goal to establish 5.6 million hectares of CBFM by 2011 (twice the area of industrial plantation forests). The Indonesian government is pursuing CBFM as a strategy to reduce deforestation of tropical forests, to alleviate poverty in rural communities, and to contribute timber supplies to the processing industry.There has been a belief that CBFM can lead to a physical and socio-economic transformation at the local level. However, in practice, especially in Indonesia, this claim appears problematic because in over 35 years since it has been officially introduced it does not appear to have contributed significantly to address the problems of deforestation and rural poverty.Despite the government’s ambitious goal for CBFM, there are several challenges, for instance the entrenched poverty of many rural communities and inconsistent and unsupportive policies of CBFM at the national, provincial, and local government. This paper is intended to explore, discusses, and criticize the implementation of CBFM policies in various countries and in particular in Indonesia. This paper also aims to explore its challenges in the future development in Indonesia
