FEATURES OF REHABILITATION ACTIVITIES OF FOSTER CARERS

The rehabilitation activity of a foster caregiver in the process of providing a patronage service is complex. It provides the implementation of measures aimed at the child's needs, restoring or forming the functional ties of the child and his family environment with social groups. The purpose of the article is to analyze and highlight the features and characteristics of the rehabilitation activities of a foster caregiver when providing foster care services for a child. Through the analysis, synthesis and generalization of scientific research, current regulatory legal acts, the tasks of the rehabilitation activity of the foster caregiver concerning children of different groups are determined. This activity is based on the principles and ethical standards that have been presented. Features and characteristics of foster carers' rehabilitation activities are limited in time (the service of foster care is temporary from 3 to 6 months); provided in the apartment where the foster parent family lives. It is provided by persons who do not have the professional education of a rehabilitation specialist, social worker, psychologist, etc, but only who have been selected and trained according to the program of foster carers' training. The conditions of the foster carer's rehabilitation activity success have been described. The emphasis is placed on the work peculiarities of the foster parent's work with the child's biological parents in the rehabilitation process. The areas in which the foster caregiver implements the rehabilitation activities tasks are identified, and various types of assistance and support that he can use are described. It is noted that the rehabilitation activities of the foster carer are carried out within the framework of case management technology. It describes the sequence of actions of a private educator to prepare for the transfer of the child to family forms of education.

Impact of rehabilitation and status area change on land cover and carbon storage in Paliyan Wildlife Reserve, Gunung Kidul, Indonesia

Puspanti A, Kusumandari A, Faida LRW, Sudaryatno. 2021. Impact of rehabilitation and status area change on land cover and carbon storage in Paliyan Wildlife Reserve, Gunung Kidul, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 22: 3964-3971. This study analyzed the land cover change and carbon storage after the rehabilitation of Paliyan forest. This study mainly focused on the forest status during 1999-2019, especially after establishing a wildlife reserve forest and after rehabilitation activity. We used a combination of canopy density model, carbon conversion, and changes of management-related data to analyze land cover classes in two decades of 1999-2009 and 2009-2019 representing the change in status of the area, rehabilitation, and management dynamics through the time. The result shows that at baseline (1999), the status was still production plantation forest dominated by non-forest/open land with the most carbon storage in plantation forest of 5463.04 tons of carbon. In the first decade, important events occurred such as continuing illegal logging until 2001; change of area status to wildlife reserve forest; and initiation of rehabilitation in 2003. There was an increase in non-forest areas during the first decade, and carbon storage decreased mostly in plantation forests with only 867.71 tons of carbon remaining. In the second decade, rehabilitation has shown a positive impact in increasing forested areas, and altered non-forest to the forested area dominated by open forest/mixed agriculture area, followed by plantation forest, and secondary forest. In this decade, the legality of the area status and rehabilitation activity underwent to be more advance. The carbon storage also shows the positive result with the most increase of storage in plantation forest of 4072.932 tons carbon, or almost 4.7 times higher than that in 2009. Total carbon storage in 2019 was 13257.50 tons, or almost three times higher than that in 2009. The rehabilitation required a longer period to achieve a more dense forest condition as in 2019 the area was still dominated by open forest or agriculture. The smallholder farmers and high dependency of the surrounding community manage the land to feed their livestock, impede the rehabilitation and restoration process, and de-escalate the transition from non-forest to forest resulted in the more vegetated area. This result is important for stakeholders for designing appropriate forest-related policies and supporting further rehabilitation strategies.

Analisis Perubahan Luasan Hutan Mangrove Di Kecamatan Brebes Dan Wanasari, Kabupaten Brebes Menggunakan Citra Satelit Landsat Tahun 2008, 2013 Dan 2018

Mangrove merupakan ekosistem daerah peralihan yang memiliki beberapa fungsi diantaranya ekologis, fisik maupun ekonomi. Kerusakan mangrove sering terjadi di beberapa daerah sehingga kelestarian mangrove sangat perlu dijaga. Salah satu upaya untuk mengurangi kerusakan tersebut dengan kegiatan rehabilitasi. Kegiatan rehabilitasi ini bertujuan untuk memulihkan kondisi mangrove seperti keadaan semula. Keberhasilan dari kegiatan rehabilitasi ini dapat dipantau dengan sistem penginderaan jauh menggunakan citra Satelit Landsat. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada bulan Juni- Juli 2018. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif bersifat eksploratif. Materi dalam penelitian ini adalah data citra satelit Landsat 5 untuk tahun 2008 dan Landsat 8 untuk tahun 2018. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian didapatkan nilai perubahan luasan hutan mangrove di Desa Kaliwlingi, Kecamatan Brebes dan Desa Sawojajar, Kecamatan Wanasari tahun 2008, 2013 dan 2018. Luas mangrove di Desa Kaliwlingi Kecamatan Brebes pada tahun 2008-2013 bertambah sebesar 101,25 ha yaitu 48,42 ha pada tahun 2008 dan 149,67 ha pada tahun 2013. Pada tahun 2013-2018 juga bertambah 184,23 ha yakni 333,9 ha pada tahun 2018. Pada Desa Sawojajar Kecamatan Wanasari, luas mangrove juga bertambah sebesar 0,09 ha yakni 24,39 ha pada tahun 2008 bertambah menjadi 24,48 ha pada tahun 2013. Tahun 2013-2018 juga bertambah sebesar 12,24 ha sehingga menjadi 36,72 ha di tahun 2018. Luas mangrove di Desa Kaliwlingi dan Sawojajar bertambah dalam kurun waktu sepuluh tahun.] Mangroves are transitional ecosystems that have several functions including ecological, physical and economic. Mangrove damage often occurs in several areas so that the preservation of mangroves is very important. One effort to reduce this damage is through rehabilitation activities. This rehabilitation activity aims to restore the condition of mangroves as they were before. The success of these rehabilitation activities can be monitored by remote sensing systems using Landsat Satellite imagery. This research was conducted in June-July 2018. This research method uses descriptive methods that are alternative. The material in this study is Landsat 5 satellite image data for 2008 and Landsat 8 for 2018. Based on the results of the study, the value of changes in a mangrove forests in Kaliwlingi Village, Brebes and Sawojajar Villages, Wanasari District in 2008, 2013 and 2018. The area of mangroves in Kaliwlingi Village, Brebes Subdistrict in 2008-2013 it increased by 101.25 ha, which was 48.42 ha in 2008 and 149.67 ha in 2013. In 2013-2018 it also increased by 184.23 ha, namely 333.9 ha in 2018. In Sawojajar Village, Wanasari Subdistrict, the area of mangroves also increased by 0.09 ha, which was 24.39 ha in 2008 which increased to 24.48 ha in 2013. 2013-2018 also increased by 12.24 ha to 36.72 ha in 2018.
