“…The success of forestry development can be achieved by building capacity. To achieve success in capacity building it requires the participation of local communities in forest management activities and sharing of responsibilities in forest management (Pujo, et al, 2018). The local community must be involved in deciding which activities to develop to achieve a proper forest management system in economic terms, can adapt socially, and environmentally friendly.…”

This research discusses community empowerment efforts in private forest development in Malang Regency. Community empowerment efforts in the development of private forests are not optimal because there are still some obstacles, namely the lack of forestry extension workers, low community participation, and weak institutional farmer groups. The programs and activities of private forest development based on community empowerment don't fully accommodate the basic needs of the community. Community groups prefer activities such as institutional training and market access than forestry technical activities (such as nursery training, fertilizing, maintenance, etc). Planning for community forest development is formulated in a top-down approach. The community is still not involved in the planning of private forest development in Malang Regency.

“…Kelembagaan yang mampu untuk mewadahi pengelolaan hutan merupakan kelembagaan hutan yang diinginkan (Djelau et al, 2014). Kegiatan pengelolaan hutan tidak terlepas dari masyarakat disekitarnya (Baynes et al, 2015;Brown & Sonwa, 2015;Pujo et al, 2018). Adanya koordinasi dari pihak pengelola hutan, kelembagaan pada hutan tersebut dapat dikatakan berjalan dengan baik (Safe'i et al, 2018).…”

Muara Danau Village Forest Management Institution (LPHD) is a forum on forest management activities that aim to improve community welfare. At present, the condition of the farming business is not effective, so it requires some rules as a measure of success. This study aims to analyze the institution of the Muara Danau Village Forest Management Institution (LPHD) in the implementation of Village Forest Management. The research was conducted in Muara Danau Village, Semende Darat Laut Subdistrict, Muara Enim Regency, South Sumatra Province, from March to April 2020. Data were analyzed by using the SSBP approach. The results of the study showed the situation of farmers utilizing forest resources in the form of water sources and non-timber forest products. Smallholders manage the forest based on institutional structure stated in the AD/ART, and administrative sanctions. In terms of planting patterns in the arable land, the structure controls farmer behavior by using an agroforestry system. This makes Muara Danau Village Forest Management Institution (LPHD) obtain a good performance in the aspect of institutional management which is measured by the involvement of members and institutional administrators in group activities/training (91%) and the types of binding group rules in the form of written rules (AD/ART) as well as unwritten rules (84%) in managing areas measured based on the type of forest resource conservation activity (95%). However, managing businesses have not obtained optimal results, as measured by the absence of institutions that handle the marketing of forest products for groups (cooperatives). Based on the results of the research, the institution of Muara Danau Village Forest Management Institution (LPHD) is categorized as good.

“…That is, the authors believe, if given the adequate and precise information, the community will quickly learn. In essence, local community participation (empowerment) is very important to improving communitybased development (Pokharel et al, 2015;Pujo et al, 2018). It is important to understand the different characteristics of the community in terms of cultural, geographic, social, political and demographic aspects because community capacity building carried out in one community may not necessarily be the same in another.…”

“…Therefore, the change of boundary setting through land tenure in the State Forest Inventory and Verification initiative (or PTKH Inver), particularly related to the collective application mechanism from the community becomes a program that has particular urgency. Of course, a large-scale public outreach initiative must also be undertaken in parallel at the site, which requires dimensions of both top-down and participatory engagement so that people can gain the knowledge about how the policy works while also increasing their capacity to carry out the institutional measures to secure their rights (Seixas et al, 2009;Pujo et al, 2018).…”

Longstanding land tenure claims in state forest by communities continues to pose a challenge to government institutions in Indonesia. Such conditions require institutions to develop mechanisms to assure communities of their rights in the state ideals of manifest justice and welfare. One government policy to reconcile these goals is the mechanism on Land Tenure Settlement Reconciliation in State Forests (Penyelesaian Penguasaan Tanah dalam Kawasan Hutan/PPTKH). This study aims to describe this policy in the context of fieldwork experience related to fundamental problems in the process of identification and settlement of land tenure claimed by communities in state forests. Data collection was obtained through participant observation conducted with communities in Ogan Kemoring Ulu Regency by identifying and verifying community lands in state forests. This method allowed for a more nuanced understanding of settlement challenges and afforded the opportunity to develop a formula for addressing conflicts. The results of the study show that the main problems are a lack of access to information related to the PPTKH policy emergent from ineffective dissemination of information combined with an underdeveloped capacity of processes that support the community to convene and discuss with government actors, academics/researchers, and activists/scholars. The participative learning process conducted by the authors helped the community effectively prepare documents to propose to an Inventory and Verification (Inver) team of Land Tenure in State Forests. Therefore, going forward more collaborative work is needed within the framework of community assistance and capacity building so that the communities have the means and resources to able to understand the challenges of land tenure recognition and be empowered to propose such mechanisms independently. Communities who claim land in state forests depend upon formalized legality, without which can potentially harm their access and assets.
