Communities retain strong traditional resource management systems
History of local action against outsiders (riots against logging companies in 1992 and 1995)
Aspiration for development, decentralization in 1999
Fragile environment
• Limestone and raised coral geology• Thin soil easily eroded once forest cover
removed• Water shortage, seasonal climate• Confined to coast, population depends
on forested water catchments inland

Promote a participatory ecosystem-based approach in land-use planning (LUP), facilitating the integration of local concerns and national priorities
Objectives
Co-develop land zoning and land use plan
Co-prepare community-based development project proposals
![Page 5: Towards participatory ecosystem-based planning in Indonesia: a case study in the Moluccas](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110310/55911e7c1a28abb8588b45ea/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
By working on four main components
1. Identifying stakeholders and collaboratively designing programme framework
2. Facilitating common vision, goals and objectives
3. Collecting and synthesizing social-ecological data on issues linked to ecosystem-based planning and community-based development projects
4. Developing a process of advocacy, consultation and agreement about ecosystem-based land allocation and Land Use Plan, including legal aspects
![Page 6: Towards participatory ecosystem-based planning in Indonesia: a case study in the Moluccas](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110310/55911e7c1a28abb8588b45ea/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Methods
1. Identify stakeholders and program framework
Preliminary assessment of issues:
Focus groups, key informant interviews, public meetings
Socialization of concepts (LUP, ecosystem, participatory)
Identify program scale and boundaries
• Identify and agree about the needs of a revision of the land allocation and LUP

• Forum and workshops, focus group techniques to build collaboration
• Participatory Prospective Analysis to build vision and scenario
Methods 2. Common vision and goals
![Page 9: Towards participatory ecosystem-based planning in Indonesia: a case study in the Moluccas](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110310/55911e7c1a28abb8588b45ea/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The main steps of Participatory Prospective Analysis
S1 – Identification of the key factors that will shape the future
S2 – Identification and description of
the possible futures
S3 – Definition of a strategy
1. Define the limits of the system
2. Identify the variables
3. Define the variables
4. Analyse their mutual influences / dependence
5. Identify and select the key variables
6. Define the states of the key variables
(what will happen in the future)
7. Build up scenarios (a combination of hypotheses
about what will happen to the key variables)
S0 – Definition of the system

Methods 3: Social-ecological data collection for ecosystem-based planning
Community-based survey, participatory mapping
Socioeconomics, biophysical, ecological, ethno-biological surveys
Analysis of data to identify critical patterns, processes and linkage

• Spatial data used insufficiently detailed (1:250,000) for practical LUP, ‘blown up’ at larger scale
• Very poor agreement between zoning and topography or vegetation, serious spatial inaccuracies
• Unclear zoning criteria and legal status
• Use of ‘Forest Score’ to define Forest Land Status not adapted to island like Yamdena (seasonal climate, fragile soil type)
1. Agreement on the weakness of existing land zoning
![Page 13: Towards participatory ecosystem-based planning in Indonesia: a case study in the Moluccas](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110310/55911e7c1a28abb8588b45ea/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Agriculture and plantations
Forbidden use,
protected forest
Shared forest use permitted, timber and non-timber forest products
Restricted use
riverine forest
Mangrove, regulated use
Coastal area, regulated use
2. Traditional spatial allocation of land use rights

3. Bunch of ecological data for the main ecosystems: trees, small mammals, birds, soil; ecological mapping
![Page 15: Towards participatory ecosystem-based planning in Indonesia: a case study in the Moluccas](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110310/55911e7c1a28abb8588b45ea/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
4. Decision rules for government using ecosystem and watershed based planning
Forest cover used as first re-adjustment of ‘Forest Land’
• All sub-watersheds where more than 70% of the land cover is food crop, shrub, grass, mixed garden should be classified as non Forest Estate.
• The forest that remains within these watersheds is assigned as community forest (Hutan Masyarakat).
• Negotiations with Ministry of Forestry by local government.
![Page 16: Towards participatory ecosystem-based planning in Indonesia: a case study in the Moluccas](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110310/55911e7c1a28abb8588b45ea/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Under current MoF regulations, all areas under Mangrove
• Under current MoF regulations, all areas within 100 m of main rivers
• Soil type very prone to erosion with slope ³15% (Decree 44, 2004)
• The forest cover is more than 30% Dry Deciduous Forest (new specific decision rules for Monsoon forest)
Delineation of Protection and Conservation Forest area (unit watershed and ecosystem)
![Page 17: Towards participatory ecosystem-based planning in Indonesia: a case study in the Moluccas](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110310/55911e7c1a28abb8588b45ea/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Soil survey data showing very high rates for potential soil erosion.
• Economic studies showing at the same time that logging operation in Yamdena is not economically viable
Delineation of Production Forest
Normal logging intensities under Production Forest are not permissible in Yamdena.
Commercial forest activity, if any, should be managed as Limited Production Forest.

Official request for endorsement to central government
Advocacy and agreements, civil society and government

Legally supported
![Page 21: Towards participatory ecosystem-based planning in Indonesia: a case study in the Moluccas](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110310/55911e7c1a28abb8588b45ea/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Satisfactory achievements• Consensus on new Land Allocation/zoning and Land Use
Planning• Collectively designed project proposals between communities
and local government on future actions in agriculture, forestry and fisheries sectors (community-based micro-projects)
• Better mutual understanding on social-ecological systems in a Monsoon Forest environment
• Better mutual understanding that the customary law should be integrated into the national law as a better conflict resolution solution
… but
Although results endorsed at district and provincial level, no follow up nor official agreement at national level

Conclusions
• Ecosystem-based approach is appropriate as an expanded land-use planning process.
• In the present study it facilitated the integration of broad scale natural and social system in community development and collaborative LUP.
• Similar approach should be promoted for other areas in the Moluccas and in the rest of Indonesia, considering carefully governance links between regional and national decision levels.
