Special Case

Aboriginal peoples in Canada present a special case of citizen involvement in forest governance, with rights and statusthat go beyond those of other stakeholders and individuals. Increasingly, participation processes aimed specifically atAboriginal representatives are being used to encourage their involvement in forest management. This article asks whatwould be the characteristics of a distinct process that could respond to Aboriginal rights, needs and expectations. We doso by combining the results of a broad Québec-wide study with those from a case study of forestry participation in a singlecommunity. A total of 68 consultation processes are analyzed. These experiences enable the identification of severalcharacteristics of consultation processes used for First Nations. We also note that distinct consultations typically reflectthe same practices that are used more generally for public participation in forestry, raising the question of whether or notthese consultations truly respond to Aboriginal rights, needs and expectations in Québec.Key words: Aboriginal peoples, Aboriginal forestry, forest management, public participation mechanisms, duty to consult,Canada

Cultural Governance

The shift in government concept into governance takes the consequence of changes in public governance including in the forestry sector. Good forest governance becomes a great hope for managing the forest condition so that sustainable forest management can be realized. However, in its implementation, it contains a big challenge for the forest in Indonesia which is mostly identical with indigenous people. Meanwhile, the development becomes a necessity that cannot be inhibited in which business corporation as the actor who plays in the forest governance is considered as a major threat to the environment and indigenous people. To achieve good forest governance, it is necessary to have a synergy with cultural governance that is hoped to be able to accommodate the indigenous people interests. This paper is a case study related to the practice as an effort to achieve good forest governance in the indigenous people of Pelalawan that are followed by the cultural governance effort so that the indigenous people culture of Pelalawan that is closely related to the forest can still be maintained.

Structured Questionnaire

<p>The Sabah Parks has been experimenting with a new approach to forest governance, namely Community Use Zone (CUZ), in order to safeguard the forests from ongoing degradation while simultaneously providing opportunities for the affected communities to improve their living conditions and livelihoods. Despite the ongoing discourse to expand this approach, there is limited systematic study to understand the changes in governance as well as linking it to forest and livelihood outcomes. By conducting structured and semi-structured questionnaire interview to CUZ and non-CUZ community members as well as Crocker Range Park staffs, this study clarifies the changes in involvement of local people in rule making and implementation of diverse forest management activities and governance decisions as well as forest and livelihood outcomes from CUZ. The result showed that local people participation in rule making and implementation is enhanced after implementation of CUZ. While the forest outcome remains mixed, the CUZ has brought positive impact to the livelihood of the participants. CUZ also has positive externality to neighboring community in terms of their attitude towards the program.</p>

Hierarchy Process

The limited access to land, particularly for the community around the forest contributed to deforestation in Indonesia. This problem drives the emergence of social forestry. In fact, the implementation of social forestry in some cases could not be done sustainably. The research was conducted to identify the determinants of sustainable social forestry and analyze the implementation of sustainable social forestry in Hutan Desa Wanagiri, Bali. The analysis is carried out using Analysis Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. The study was conducted from December 2017 – May 2018. Based on the results of the study, three main principles were used to evaluate the management of Hutan Desa Wanagiri, namely the principle of sustainable environment (environmental aspects), improvement of community welfare (socio-economic aspects), and improvement of forest governance (institutional aspects). Based on the AHP results regarding the three principles, the level of sustainability of Hutan Desa Wanagiri for the environmental aspects is 49,9%, and then 62,7% for socio-economic aspect and 51% for institutional aspects. Overall, the level of sustainability of Hutan Desa Wanagiri is equal to 54,4% and classified as “moderate sustainable'.
