Participatory selection of ecosystem services for spatial planning: Insights from the Lisbon Metropolitan Area, Portugal

The village is an integral part of cities in Indonesia since its inception. Each village is unique because it represents historical uniqueness, diverse physical patterns, complex and dynamic social systems. Jakarta City as the largest city in Indonesia has its own challenges in managing the Urban Villages. One of the urban villages in Jakarta is Tanjung Gedong Village, located in RT.05 / RW.08 Tomang Village, Grogol Petamburan District. The selection of RT.05 / RW.08 as a PKM activity partner was because the location of the target partner was around the UNTAR campus, so the PKM activity became a tangible manifestation of UNTAR's contribution to the surrounding environment. The Proposing Team has also conducted PKM activities at the Partner's location, so it is hoped that the proposed program will be sustainable. Tanjung Gedong Village RT.05 / RW.08 Tomang Village has an area of 1.3 hectares with a population of 300 people (60 households). Problems owned by Partners to create a healthy and comfortable environment for residents: First, spatial planning is not optimal and flexible to accommodate a variety of social activities from the community. Secondly, the partners currently lack green open space. The proposed solution is the Proposed Green Village Structuring Concept by involving active participation from Partners (RW-RT leadership, Residents) using 3 approaches, namely: Green Planning and Design, Green Open Space and Green community. The proposed Green Village concept is expected to overcome the problems faced by partners so that a healthy and comfortable residential environment for residents is achievedABSTRAK:Kampung merupakan bagian integral kota-kota di Indonesia sejak awal pembentukannya. Setiap kampung memiliki keunikan karena merepresentasikan kekhasan sejarah, pola fisik yang beragam, sistem sosial yang kompleks dan dinamis. Kota Jakarta sebagai kota terbesar di Indonesia memiliki tantangan tersendiri dalam mengelola Kampung Kotanya. Salah satu kampung kota di Jakarta adalah Kampung Tanjung Gedong yang terletak di RT.05/RW.08 Kelurahan Tomang, Kecamatan Grogol Petamburan. Pemilihan RT.05/RW.08 sebagai Mitra kegiatan PKM karena lokasi mitra sasaran berada di sekitar kampus 1 UNTAR, sehingga kegiatan PKM ini menjadi salah satu wujud nyata kontribusi UNTAR terhadap lingkungan sekitar. Tim Pengusul juga telah melakukan kegiatan PKM di lokasi Mitra, sehingga diharapkan program yang diusulkan akan berkesinambungan. Kampung Tanjung Gedong RT.05/RW.08 Kelurahan Tomang memiliki luasan 1,3 Ha dengan jumlah penduduk 300 orang (60 KK). Permasalahan yang dimiliki oleh Mitra untuk menciptakan lingkungan yang sehat dan nyaman untuk warga: Pertama, tata ruang belum optimal dan fleksibel untuk mewadahi beragam aktivitas sosial dari masyarakat. Kedua, saat ini mitra masih kekurangan ruang terbuka hijau. Solusi yang diusulkan adalah Usulan Konsep Penataan Kampung Hijau dengan melibatkan partisipasi aktif dari Mitra (pemangku pimpinan RW-RT, Warga) menggunakan 3 pendekatan, yaitu: Green Planning and Design, Green Open Space dan Green community. Usulan konsep Kampung Hijau diharapkan dapat mengatasi permasalahan yang dihadapi oleh mitra sehingga tercapai sebuah lingkungan hunian yang sehat dan nyaman untuk warga.

Selection Of

The premise for the selection of the topic discussed in this article is the lack of research on the level of reduction of air pollutant emissions by the use of photovoltaic micro-installations in single-family buildings, both in Poland and other countries of Central and Eastern Europe. Therefore, the Authors made an attempt to estimate the scale of air pollution reduction (in particular CO2) in the area of the urbanized Metropolitan area of Krakow, which is one of the most polluted regions in Poland. The installation of photovoltaic panels on single-family buildings, co-financed by the government My Electricity Program, is the investment cost in improving the air quality in this region, and thus increasing the well-being of its inhabitants.

Ecosystem Multifunctionality

Integrating the concept of ecosystem services (ES) into spatial planning is an opportunity to make land use and management choices that maximize the delivery of multiple ES. The assessment of social demand can be useful for the identification of priority areas or potential conflicts among stakeholders. We used Q-methodology to understand stakeholder perspectives on ES to facilitate their integration into spatial planning in the canton of Vaud, Switzerland. Three perspectives, utilitarian, cultural and protective, were analyzed and used to discuss potential implications for spatial planning. First, ecosystem multifunctionality and synergies among ES should be emphasized. Second, the food production system should move away from a productive-only approach, to a system that protects soils and their functions. Providing a paradigm change, arable land could be protected to the same level as forests and farmers could be incentivized further to change their practices. Finally, our findings show a potential over-interpretation of the importance of cultural ES in current planning policies, as most participants would be ready to change their behaviors to preserve biological functions. It would be useful to conduct a similar study in other cantons to ensure that the results are fully representative of the current situation in Switzerland.
