MEMADUKAN STRATEGI, MEWUJUDKAN KETAHANAN: SEBUAH PEMBELAJARAN DARI PENGEMBANGAN STRATEGI KETAHANAN KOTA DI SEMARANG
No full text‘Integrasi’ adalah suatu jargon yang sering digunakan oleh hampir semua disiplin, dari bidang rekayasa hingga ekonomi, dan dari ilmu fisika hingga ilmu sosial. Tantangan untuk mengembangkan strategi yang terpadu telah menjadi pesan utama di berbagai literatur mengenai studi-studi pembangunan kota. Sementara di negera yang telah maju konsep integrasi telah dimanifestasikan dalam berbagi aspek pembangunan kota, banyak aktor dan pengambil kebijakan di negara-negara berkembang masih berjuang untuk mewujudkan integrasi. Artikel ini menyoroti upaya yang baru saja dilakukan oleh Pemerintah Kota Semarang dalam meningkatkan ketahanan kota melalui perumusan dokumen strategi ketahanan kota. Artikel memperkenalkan suatu kerangka analisis dalam mendorong integrasi strategi. Artikel ini dikembangkan dari penelitian yang menerapkan pendekatan kualitatif dengan memanfaatkan posisi penulis utama sebagai coordinator lintas tema atau cross-focus areas pada penyusunan strategi ketahanan kota dalam inisiatif 100 Resilient City. Artikel ini diharapkan membantu praktisi perkotaan dalam melakukan pendekatan langkah-demi-langkah menuju integrasi strategi-strategi perkotaan, khususnya di bidang ketahanan kota
The Emergence of Local Climate Change Adaptation Policy: An Advocacy Coalition in Indonesian Cities 1993-2013
No full textRecently, a growing trend in development and implementation of local climate change adaptation policies has been evident in several Indonesian cities. Some city governments have equipped themselves with climate change strategies, especially those which have maintained a substantial collaboration with international non- government organisations (NGOs) and aid agencies. These agencies invested a considerable amount of research on facts and evidence about climate change and its consequences at the city level. Equally importantly, learning mechanisms have been advocated to facilitate the transfer of knowledge. This phenomenon provides a promising setting for theoretical discourse about the emergence of climate adaptation policy at the city level and an opportunity to better understand the complex relationship between the roles of research (production of facts and evidence), learning (transfer of knowledge), and policy development (values and moral judgment).
The aim of this PhD project is to contribute to providing a more accurate explanation of the emergence of climate adaptation policies at the city level. Two main research questions will be addressed in this study: (1) What is the process of the development of climate adaptation policies at the city level? (2) Do policy research and learning mechanisms really matter when the city governments make decisions leading to climate adaptation policies?Thesis (PhD Doctorate)Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)Griffith School of EnvironmentScience, Environment, Engineering and TechnologyFull Tex
PENGAMBILAN KEPUTUSAN LINGKUNGAN DALAM SISTEM DESENTRALISASI : HASILKAN KEPUTUSAN YANG MEMIHAK LINGKUNGAN
No full textThe environmental decision making process under Indonesian decentralization system is examined with a case study of industrial estate expansion in Semarang municipality. Industrial estate expansion is an example of local environmental case which is a highly economic case. A more sustainable environmental decision making process is an unattainable outcome of decentralization yet. Although decentralization legally and administratively has been implemented, BAPEDAL of Semarang municipality as the local environmental institution in practice does not able to cancel or at least to delay the expansion of industrial estate, which at the same time potential to result in a wider environmental impact. Transferring power, eliminating institutional conflict and developing a more transparent framework for environmental decision by introducing public involvement are three main recommendations to improve environmental decision making under decentralization system at local leve
Extending Urban Development on Water: Jakarta Case Study
No full textThis article introduces the concept of ‘Sea Cities’ to emphasize a range of tactics to acknowledge the relationship between the sea and cities. This concept is critical for the possibility of integrating future aquatic-based urbanism to address climate change, and in particular, the issue of rising sea levels, which is currently faced by the majority of coastal cities. We compare and assess the tactics of four sea cities (i.e., to fortify, accommodate, release, and floating) against the case study of Jakarta. Jakarta is deemed to be among the metropolitan cities most vulnerable to sea level rise, owing to overpopulation alongside the fact that its land is sinking rapidly due to massive urban development. In order to understand the prospects and pitfalls of each tactic for Jakarta, we analyse scholarly literature on the subject, official government reports and documents, as well as policy briefs released by governments at the national level. This study finds that massive hard structural solutions are not only insufficient but also ineffective towards solving the challenges of climate change in Jakarta, especially the rising sea level. At the same time, it also identifies that while the combination of accommodating and floating tactics has never been considered as future a planning option, this could enable more resilient and adaptive solutions for the future development trajectory of Jakarta. In doing so, it could also provide important transferrable lessons for other coastal cities, especially those within developing countries.Full Tex

MONITORING PROGRES PEMBANGUNAN BERKELANJUTAN BAGI PROPINSI JAWA TENGAH
No full textSustainable development has been widely profound in Central Java Province since 2001. the government realizes that suistanable paradigm should be adopted in every level and sectors related with development. However, development without monitoring is not suistained, therefore it is important to formulate the monitoring progress for sustainable development in Central Java. The prerequisites for this monitoring progress are the availibility of information system and active continuing participation from stakeholders. Sensitivity to the need and political change are also factors supporting the success of the monitoring implementation. Then monitoring is focused on how and by whom the monitoring activity is done. Hence, it is recommended to create implementation strategy as follows: process and institutional legality, system mechanism, transparency on output and access to information system, guarantee for data availiability and continuity
Risk Perception of Small Islands Community on Climate Change: Evidence From Mepar and Baran Islands, Indonesia
No full textThis study explores climate risk perception of communities in two small islands, Mepar and Baran, located in Lingga Regency, Riau Islands Province to fill in the lack of knowledge regarding the topic in Indonesia and to support island bottom-up climate change adaptation planning. This study uses proportional random sampling and a questionnaire survey of 165 households to collect data related to demography, level of knowledge, level of risk perception, and adaptation actions taken by communities. We use descriptive statistics and employ discriminant analysis to determine factors influencing risk perception of these small islands' communities. We identify two categories of risk perception in this study as a basis for analysis, namely risk perception on climate change hazards and climate change risk perception on community's life. This study finds four factors that consistently influence both types of risk perception on climate change. These are the number of climate change indicators perceived, age, and the experience on extreme weather both at sea and on the island. Other influencing factors which have a partial role include the duration of residence on the island, place of birth, education level, and trade relations. We then critically discuss the results within the complexity of small island development and bottom-up climate change adaptation
