Indonesia, Indonesia is a nation of law that uses a rule of law country (rechtstaat) concept. The concept of rule of law Indonesia set forth in its Constitution, the 1945 Constitution, Article 1 paragraph (3). There is an important element of democracy stated on the Constitution, namely the protection of human rights, that every citizen has the right to enjoy it. One of the rights protected in the Constitution is right to access a good and healthy living environment. For this, the environment needs to be preserved and function through administrative law enforcement. The study uses normative juridical approach with descriptive-analytics, which describes the norms and associated with theories, and opinions of legal experts. The development of a democratic nations of law can be seen from the aspect of law enforcement in particular with environmental administration. In Indonesia, it can be reviewed through the theory of organic states and the theory of pluralist states. Based on the theory of an organic state and looking at the aspects of environmental administration law enforcement in Indonesia, the state has regulated the enforcement of environmental administrative sanctions whereby the state can regulate every activity and/or business in the environmental issues. Therefore, the pluralist state theory recognized a variety of diverse interests  in society that the state has accommodated all citizens rights to a good and healthy environment through pro-environment government policies.

The economic growth of the City of Semarang is influenced by the development of the manufacturing/ construction industry and construction has an effect on increasing pollution and/ or environmental damage. For this reason, one of the Government's efforts to provide protection and living environment management for its citizens is through environmental law enforcement. The main objective of law enforcement in cases of pollution and/ or environmental damage is to restore the environmental ecosystem and to improve the quality of the environment.

The Aarhus Convention aims to democratize environmental decision-making. Since its adoption 20 years ago, the Aarhus Convention has led to a fundamental change in German environmental administration. This article explores the administrative capacities, organizational structures and enforcement requirements, identifies challenges for environmental authorities and outlines prospects for better implementing the Aarhus Convention. The main challenges are: extended responsibilities for authorities, greater complexity of environmental decisions, increased transparency, more external communication, stricter procedural requirements, extended access to justice and the reduction of enforcement deficits. The success of the Aarhus Convention largely depends on high-capacity administration, which adapts its way of decision-making to these challenges. In addition, substantive environmental law is the foundation upon which the three pillars of the Aarhus Convention rest. Therefore, this article argues that legal instruments and a high level of substantive environmental law are essential for environmental authorities to achieve effectively the objective of the Aarhus Convention.

Abstract We examine roles and knowledge by which researchers can enhance connections between science, policy, and society. We arranged a participatory scenario workshop with representatives from environmental administration to discuss how different land-use governance arrangements link to sustainability of reindeer herding in northern Finland. We used fast track scenarios as boundary objects that aimed to bring reindeer herders’ problem definitions to be discussed with administrators. First, we performed the role of science arbiter by using our previous research with reindeer herders as the starting point for the discussions. Next, we discussed and elaborated diverse future alternatives via the role of honest broker. Finally, we were interpreted as issue advocates because the scenario exercise reduced the scope of preferable policy options for administrators. Performing these boundary-spanning roles in the same process, but each, in turn, enables researchers to offer views on sustainability via scenarios that break easily acceptable conventions.

Abstract Background To master challenges to their environmental health, people have to have health literacy (HL). At a national and communal level, focus is shifting from individual HL to health care organizations. They have to raise their organizational health literacy (OHL) to help their users to access information and services. In Germany, public health departments are responsible for environmental health at a population level while the environmental administration is responsible for health-related environmental protection. To date, there is no research on the OHL of public health departments in Germany. Which are the barriers that keep public health organizations from raising their OHL as well as from making better use of possible synergies with the environmental administration? Methods The study consisted of interviews with experts from public health (n = 7) and environmental departments (n = 5) at communal (n = 8) up to federal state level (n = 4). Experts were asked for their insight on barriers for OHL as well as for cross-sector collaboration. They were selected for a wide range in socioeconomic factors and administrative levels. The interviews were recorded between 10/2018-04/2019. After transcription the anonymized interviews underwent qualitative content analysis. Results In twelve interviews 10.4 h of audio were recorded. Content analysis revealed 13 barriers for OHL. Several of those had been described for hospitals before while others, like low responsiveness to the needs of the public, were unknown so far. Preliminary results also indicated several barriers for cross-sectoral cooperation as well as recommendations to overcome said barriers. Conclusions Interviews with public health and environmental administrative organizations turned up 13 barriers that keep them from raising their OHL. Implementing preliminary recommendations could result in better cooperation, in higher OHL, higher environmental health and therefore contribute to public health in the general population. Key messages Interviews with experts from public health and environmental administrative organizations in Germany turned up barriers that keep them from raising both their OHL and cross-sectoral cooperation. Implementing preliminary recommendations could result in higher OHL of public health departments and higher environmental health of the general public and thus contribute greatly to public health.


The need for environmental conservation is recognized globally. This paper makes an attempt to assess the role of Local Government Institutions in the protection of environment in India and Bhutan. Among different levels of environmental administration in India and Bhutan, the most effective is the presence of local government institutions for the efficient utilization and management of natural resources. This paper discusses relevant policies and practices promoted by these institutions for preserving and protecting environment. At the local government level, there are several mechanisms and agencies through which information regarding public welfare and environment conservation can be communicated to the villagers. These can be used to create the much-needed awareness about the protection of the ecology and the environment. This paper examines how the response to environment management can be strengthened with the better involvement of the institutions and the role of these institutions in some specific contexts of environment management and protection.
