TRUST AND NETWORKS IN CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION STRETEGIES: EXPERIENCE OF ACEH AND YOGYAKARTA IN EARTHQUAKE INTERVENTION

AbstractIndonesia is one of the most disaster-prone countries where 1,782 disasters occurred between 2002 and 2007. The devastating impacts of the disasters, particularly the earthquake in Aceh and Yogyakarta, attracted public participation from various institutions. The high participation of the institutions to some extent caused program ineffectiveness as many of those institutions have overlapping roles and fight over funding and beneficiaries. This paper will critically examine why networking is important in climate change adaptation based on the lessons learnt of disaster response in Aceh and Yogyakarta earthquake. This paper argues that the participation of stakeholders needs an effective networking. Networks are certainly becoming necessary in disaster intervention to avoid overlapping roles and conflict of interest between institutions involved in disaster response. Networks in community levels also become social capital that increases community’s resilience upon disaster. Keywords: disaster, intervention, social capital

Climate Action

The visibility of young people in climate change debates has risen significantly since the inception of the Fridays for Future movement, but little is known about the diversity of positions, perspectives and experiences of young people in Ireland, especially with respect to climate change adaptation planning. To close this knowledge gap, this article first interrogates key emergent spaces of public participation within the arena of climate action in Ireland in order to identify the extent of young people’s participation and whether any specific consideration is given to disadvantaged groups. It then tests the impacts of workshops specifically designed to support disadvantaged young people’s engagement with climate change adaptation which were rolled out with a designated Delivering Equality of Opportunity in Schools school in inner-city Dublin, Ireland. We found limited attention to public participation in climate change adaptation planning generally, with even less consideration given to engaging young people from disadvantaged communities. However, positive impacts with respect to enhanced knowledge of climate change science and policy processes emerged following participation in the workshops, providing the bedrock for a greater sense of self-efficacy around future engagement with climate action amongst the young people involved. We conclude that what is needed to help ensure procedural justice around climate action in Ireland are specific, relevant and interactive educational interventions on the issue of climate change adaptation; interventions which are sensitive to matters of place and difference.

Adaptation And Mitigation

Based on Regulation of Indonesian Environment Ministry number 19/2012 about Climate Village (Proklim) Program, Serut Village is designated as Climate Village in 2012 because of the effort on climate change adaptation and mitigation. This success is not separated from the community empowerment efforts after Bantul earthquake in 2006. This research aims to describe the community empowerment on climate change adaptation and mitigation then identify factors inﬂ uence community empowerment. This research method used case study with single case using qualitative descriptive approach. The research results indicate that the community empowerment has occured simultaneously and unnoticed caused by the earthquake. Community empowerment is reﬂ ected in many sectors, such as development of organic farming, management of livestock farming with communal cages, community base litter management, disaster response, greening and water resources management. Factors that inﬂ uence the process of community empowerment are natural conditions; society culture, norm, and community self-help; local leader; and government.
