Community Forests Management

Forests for Community Welfare

Welcome to Dipantara

Dipantara is an organization that deals with the community forestry.

Control over forest areas by the state has led to imbalances in land tenure. This could be began from the historical background of Java's tenurial in the past. As an agricultural country, land in Indonesia was a major source of survival for peasant. In the concept of agrarian kingdom, the land belongs to the king. Anyone who had the right to cultivate the land, had the obligation of mandatory work to support the hegemony of the kingdom.

Production control in the context of community-based forests management is a series of procedures directed at all elements in the production processes, including material control, raw material arrangement for supplying, production and performance quality standards, labor, monitoring and evaluation and other aspects to provide results at the effective cost but benefit for all..

Inequality in the control of production assets occurs between the people, the government, and Perhutani in Java.

Sharp inequality has sparked conflicts between land and forest management stakeholders in Java. Forest resources belonging to the common pool resource (CPR) require collective action from the government, community, private sector, NGOs and individuals so that the burden and responsibility are shared.

In order to achieve the goal of fair, sustainable and prosperous forest management, the government opens access to forest utilization by the community through a partnership scheme. Of course, these collaborative activities have an influence on aspects of sustainability such as ecological, social and economic aspects.

Therefore collaborative management of forest resources on the island of Java is an exemplary success experience that forests resources are benefit for local community. This also reveals that there is an influence of collaborative management of forest resources on ecological, social and economic aspects.
