Structural Poverty

The issue of indigenous women is closely related to the issue of poverty. Women who inhabit rural areas in Indonesia cannot separate from the conditions of life that are poor and completely limited. This paper tries to reflect Karl Marx's thoughts about poverty and injustice that occur in a country because of a structured system. This paper uses a qualitative approach by presenting primary and secondary data. Primary data collection through interviews and field observations, while secondary data through reading readings of scientific studies results in journal articles, policy papers, and government agencies' data. The results of this paper presents: 1) The concept of Marx that poverty is the expression of structural poverty; 2) Poverty among indigenous Dayak Benawan women in rural West Kalimantan, Indonesia, is not only cultural but also structural poverty that expressed limited access to education, health, and a decent standard of quality life; 3)  From the era of classical philosophy to modern technology era today, the poverty that has occurred centuries ago today, indigenous women of Dayak Benawan in rural areas are still faced with.

AbstractAn approach to sustainable tourism through clusters is considered an appropriate strategy in less-developed rural areas of tourist-oriented countries, such as Croatia. This paper clarifies the key challenges of the development of tourism clusters in the region of Gorska Hrvatska and provides new data for an approach to sustainable rural tourism development. Using available secondary data from governmental bodies, non-governmental organizations, protected areas of Gorska Hrvatska, and primary data of the Lika Destination Cluster, the paper explores the key challenges of developing a cluster of tourism and selective forms of tourism. Most tourism clusters in Croatia have remained in the first phase of development for years, even though this approach has failed to to achieve significant results. The key benefits of networking and branding in rural areas are identified and defined, but these potentials are still largely underutilized. The objective of this study is to provide practical recommendations to the Croatian tourism industry on how to learn from the suggested best practices and how to implement them effectively. For that purpose, the case of sustainable tourism located in the Gorska Hrvatska region, called the Lika Destination Cluster is analyzed.

<p>O setor agrícola foi severamente afetado pela pandemia de Covid-19, gerando incertezas sobre a produção e a distribuição de alimentos, o que afetou diretamente o trabalho de milhões de agricultores. Este artigo visa a analisar o impacto da pandemia na produção de alimentos em Brasília-DF, especialmente entre os agricultores assentados/acampados da reforma agrária. Para a análise, foram utilizados dados primários obtidos através de um questionário on-line destinado ao público da reforma agrária em áreas rurais das regiões administrativas da capital federal, além de dados secundários, disponibilizados por instituições públicas. Os resultados mostraram que o impacto da pandemia foi intenso entre os agricultores, deixando-os extremamente vulneráveis, principalmente nos meses iniciais da pandemia. Como forma de enfretamento dos efeitos da pandemia, os trabalhadores adotaram quatro medidas específicas: a utilização do serviço de entrega delivery; a venda de cestas agroecológicas; a participação em redes solidárias e a venda direta em feira de reforma agrária. Essas novas dinâmicas de comercialização têm transformado as formas de interação campo-cidade ao demandar estratégias diferenciadas para alcançar os consumidores finais, contribuindo para amenizar os efeitos disruptivos da pandemia nos sistemas alimentares locais.</p><p><span>Abstract</span></p><p>IMPACTS OF COVID-19 ON FOOD PRODUCTION AND COMMERCIALIZATION IN BRASILIA-DF: CHALLENGES FOR AGRARIAN REFORM SETTLERS/CAMPED</p><p>The agricultural sector was severely affected by the pandemic of Covid-19, genera- ting uncertainties about food production and distribution, which directly affected the work of millions of farmers. This article aims to analyze the impact of the pandemic on food production in Brasília-DF, especially among farmers settled in agrarian reform settlements. The analysis used primary data obtained through an on-line questionnaire addressed to the public of agrarian reform in rural areas of the administrative regions of the federal capital, as well as secondary data made available by public institutions.

A series of factors affect the social perception of hazards in a rural context. This article analyzes how weather conditions influence farmers’ perceptions of natural hazards. In order to understand the relationship between time of year/season and farmers’ concerns about hazards, this study was undertaken. The methodology was based on surveys done to obtain a base-collection of primary data, as well as a meteorological and production analysis using secondary data. A case study of small coffee farms was carried out in a Brazilian municipality with questionnaires applied during the dry season in 2016 and the rainy season in 2017. The results indicate that drought is the main hazard identified by farmers in both weather seasons. Although there were some changes in perceptions observed, the ranking order of the main hazards did not change over the dry and rainy weather seasons.

[ID] Daerah Rawa Pinang Dalam merupakan bagian dari daerah rawa di kawasan Pinang Komplek yang berada di Kabupaten Kubu Raya Provinsi Kalimantan Barat. Tinggi muka air tanah Daerah Rawa Pinang Dalam dipengaruhi oleh pasang surut air laut. Daerah Pinang Dalam diusahakan oleh penduduk sebagai lahan pertanian. Namun hasil produksi pada daerah ini belum optimal yang disebabkan oleh belum baiknya jaringan tata air, dimana sebagian besar daerah tersebut merupakan daerah genangan, sering mengalami banjir pada musim penghujan serta mengalami kekeringan pada musim kemarau. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui jenis dan pengaruh hidrotopografi lahan terhadap saluran tersier, sehingga dapat diperoleh dimensi saluran tersier sesuai dengan peruntukan lahan di daerah rawa Pinang Dalam. Data primer pada penelitian ini yaitu data hidrometri dan data pasang surut, sementara data sekunder yang digunakan yaitu data hidrologi dan data topografi serta peta-peta yang diperlukan dalam analisis hidrotopografi. Data tersebut merupakan dasar dalam melakukan kajian dan analisis hidrometri dan topografi yang diperlukan untuk mengetahui hidrotopografi lahan dengan memperhatikan peruntukan lahan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa jenis hidrotopografi lahan di daerah rawa Pinang Dalam terdiri dari jenis hidrotopografi B, C dan D. Berdasarkan jenis hidotopografi dan peruntukan lahan, terdapat kriteria tertentu mengenai kedalaman optimum untuk saluran tersier dalam sebuah jaringan tata air. Saluran tersier yang diperuntukkan sebagai lahan perkebunan sebaiknya diupayakan untuk memiliki kedalaman yang dapat mempertahankan muka air tanah dalam kisaran 60 hingga 90 centimeter, sementara elevasi muka air untuk tanaman padi sawah dipertahankan setinggi mungkin dengan kedalaman perakaran minus (-)10 sampai dengan -30 centimeter. [EN] The Pinang Dalam swamp area is a part of Pinang Komplek swamp area which is located in Kubu Raya Regency, West Kalimantan Province. Groundwater table in Pinang Dalam swamp area is affected by tides. Pinang Dalam area is cultivated by the population as agricultural land. But the production results in this area are not optimal due to the lack of a good water system, where most of the area is inundated, often experiences floods during the rainy season and experiences drought in the dry season. This research aims to identify the type and effects of land hydrotopography on the tertiary channel, thus the dimension of tertiary channel that is suitable for the allocated land use is obtained. The primary data in this study are hydrometric and tidal data, while secondary data used are hydrological and topographic data and maps needed in hydrotopographic analysis. These data are the basis for conducting studies and analysis of hydrometry and topography needed to the hydrotopography of land while taking the land use into account. The results showed that the hydrotopographic type of land in the Pinang Dalam swamp area consisted of hydrotopographic types B, C and D. Based on the hydotopography type and land use, there are certain criteria regarding the optimum depth for tertiary channels in a water system. Tertiary canals on land allocated as plantation area should be striven to have a depth that can maintain water table in the range of 60 to 90 centimeters, while the water level elevation for lowland rice plants should be maintained as high as possible with a rooting depth of minus (-) 10 to -30 centimeters.

The COVID-19 pandemic has hit Indonesia where the worrying situation has affected almost every all-region in Indonesia, including West Kalimantan. One of the referral hospitals for the case of COVID-19 in West Kalimantan is RSUD dr. Agoesdjam is the only one referral hospital in the Ketapang Regency area. This makes a critical situation, considering that Ketapang Regency is very large and there is only one referral hospital. The problem that arises later is the number of patients from various regions who come to check themselves at RSUD dr. Agoesdjam Ketapang, where this hospital has a limited number of doctors and health workers. This causes job burnout for health workers, where they have to work extra in monitoring and handling patients regularly in their work environment. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with an exploration of primary and secondary data. Primary data refers to the interview results while secondary data comes from journal searches and online media coverage. Based on the results and discussion in this study, it can be concluded that the COVID-19 situation in RSUD dr. Agoesdjam is quite worrying so that it increases the alertness of the hospital, in this case, the job burnout of health workers is increasing. The duties and responsibilities of nurses are a priority in handling COVID-19 patients and this case raises fear, worry, and energy burden and thoughts for health workers, especially nurses at RSUD dr. Agoesdjam Ketapang. Furthermore, the job burnout experienced by nurses in dealing with the COVID-19 situation is work overload, poor performance, fatigue, and reduced alertness because they are overshadowed by anxiety and worry.
