Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperkirakan bagaimana asimetri kesepakatan antara Inggris dengan Indonesia pasca Brexit. Tinjauan literatur pada kesepakatan perdagangan internasional dilakukan dengan menelusuri data kesepakatan yang tersimpan dalam basis data Kementerian Luar Negeri Indonesia dalam periode 2010-2019. Hasil memperoleh hanya ada satu kesepakatan dagang Indonesia-Inggris yaitu terkait proyek Fourth Stage Multi-stakeholder Forestry Program (4th-MFP). Pada periode yang sama, Indonesia juga ikut serta dalam kesepakatan dagang dengan Uni Eropa bernama Voluntary Partnership Agreement – Forest Law Enforcement Governance and Trade (VPA-FLEGT). VPA-FLEGT asimetri dengan menguntungkan Uni Eropa sementara MFP asimetri dengan menguntungkan Indonesia. Setelah menganalisis kedua kesepakatan, ditemukan kecenderungan bahwa Inggris akan terus mendorong asimetri terjadi karena memiliki undang-undang lingkungan hidup yang ketat dan kebutuhan akan kayu yang besar. Asimetri akan mendorong Indonesia tetap dapat memasok Inggris dengan kayu yang berasal dari sumber-sumber legal pasca Brexit.

Tulisan ini akan membahas mengenai peran pihak swasta yaitu pengusaha dalam penandatangan perjanjian kerjasama VPA-FLEGT Voluntary Partnership Agreement On Forest Law Enforcement Governance And Trade antara Uni Eropa dan Indonesia. Kerjasama ini merupakan kerjasama ekonomi yang berbasis pada sertifikasi ramah lingkungan yang diterapkan pada produk kayu yang akan masuk dalam pasar Uni Eropa. Untuk itu, kerjasama ini sangat penting bagi Indonesia mengingat bahwa Uni Eropa merupakan salah satu pasar kayu Indonesia. Peran Pengusaha sendiri sangat penting dalam proses kesepakatan ini, karena pengusaha merupakan ujung tombak dari kebijakan yang nantinya diterapkan. Pemerintah melibatkan pengusaha dalam pelaksanaan diplomasinya terhadap Uni Eropa. Pelibatan pengusaha dapat membantu pemerintah Indonesia dalam meyakinkan Uni Eropa bahwa Indonesia telah siap bergabung dalam kerjasama tersebut.

Partnership Agreement

In an effort to reverse the trend of deforestation and forest degradation, several international initiatives have been attempted. Though promoted in different political arenas, Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade (FLEGT) – Voluntary Partnership Agreement (VPA), and Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation in developing countries (REDD+) share overlapping objectives of conservation of tropical forests. We explore specialists' viewpoint on FLEGT-VPA and REDD+ processes in Indonesia with reference to their contribution towards Sustainable Forest Management (SFM). The study shows that FLEGT-VPA and REDD+ regimes contribute towards SFM. While FLEGT-VPA improves enabling condition for SFM through governance reform, improved harvesting practices, and timber legality assurance system, REDD+ supports SFM through institutional strengthening, reforming policies and frameworks, mobilizing new and additional financial resources and increasing social and ecological resilience. We identified opportunities to achieve synergies between REDD+ and FLEGT-VPA by harmonizing their processes, tools, methodologies, technical assistance, capacity-building and funding mechanisms.

En privilégiant la signature des Accords de Partenariat Volontaires (APV) individuels avec la plupart des pays producteurs de bois de l’Afrique centrale, l’Union européenne et les pays signataires affichent leur volonté de lancer une croisade contre l’exploitation illégale du bois et assurent, de manière à peine déguisée, la mainmise de l’Union sur le bois exploité dans ces pays. L’application effective de ces APV est récente, certes. Toutefois, jusqu’ici, leur impact sur la protection des forêts de l’Afrique centrale en général et sur celles du Cameroun en particulier reste mitigé au regard de la quantité de bois illégalement exploité qui continue d’y circuler. Cette persistance de l’exploitation illégale du bois peut se justifier par la présence pernicieuse de la pauvreté dans la plupart des pays producteurs de bois de l’Afrique centrale, laquelle est parfois maladroitement avancée pour justifier la corruption endémique dans ces États. Le bois ainsi illégalement exploité ne profite guère aux couches vulnérables de la population, mais engraisse une poignée de fonctionnaires aigrefins, situés parfois jusqu’au sommet de l’administration civile et policière. Alors, si l’impact des normes de la Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade (FLEGT) sur la protection des forêts de l’Afrique centrale est perceptible du fait de leur application mitigée, cet impact reste perfectible par l’élargissement du champ matériel et territorial d’application de ces normes, la lutte contre la pauvreté et la corruption, etc.

PurposeVoluntary Partnership Agreement (VPA) offers a framework for open and participatory forest management for forest actors, particularly communities fringing forest reserves. This paper aimed to determine the factors influencing the participation of local communities in the implementation and monitoring of Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade-Voluntary Partnership Agreement (FLEGT-VPA) activities.Design/methodology/approachThe study was conducted in three communities in Goaso Forest District in the Ahafo Region of Ghana. Based on a cross-sectional design, 105 (n = 105) community members were interviewed using a semi-structured questionnaire. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify socio-demographic and cultural factors that influence people's participation in FLEGT-VPA activities. Friedman and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were conducted to analyse the influence of the environmental role of the forest and participation in FLEGT-VPA activities.FindingsThe study found a significant association between the leadership status of respondents' local customs/taboo days and participation in both implementation and monitoring activities. At the same time, a significant association was found between respondents' participation in previous training programs and FLEGT-VPA monitoring activities. The environmental role of the forest was also found to have a significant association with respondents' participation in FLEGT-VPA activities.Originality/valueStudies on the factors that influence the participation of forest fringe communities in Ghana in implementing and monitoring FLEGT-VPA activities are non-existent or scarce. This study identified significant socio-demographic and environmental factors contributing to participatory forest conservation modules such as FLEGT-VPA which will guide future forest conservation initiatives that are inclusive of stakeholders’ interests/concerns.
