“…The miners demonstrated flexibility by involving additional parties, like mediators or community leaders, which further underscores the dynamic nature of conflict resolution in these communities. This aligns with the kearifan lokal, local wisdom principle, where adaptable solutions are prioritised based on specific contexts [53]. Some miners also utilise legal means, highlighting their awareness of and access to formal systems.…”

“…Government initiatives for managing miners' wealth, aiming to prevent exploitation and promote financial security, can ironically become entangled in power struggles. Miners might perceive these programs as paternalistic or lacking transparency, leading to accusations of mismanagement and favouritism towards specific groups, as seen in [53] study. Diamond sales facilitation efforts by the government, intended to combat illegal trading and ensure fair prices, can become breeding grounds for conflict.…”

“…However, their effectiveness can be hampered by limited authority, lack of transparency, and potential bias within the community. A study by [53] highlighted the challenges such bodies face in South Kalimantan, where influential individuals often exert undue influence over decision-making processes. Miners often come together to address issues that give rise to tensions, such as resource depletion, environmental degradation, or unfair treatment by authorities.…”

This study delves into the intricate social dynamics beneath South Kalimantan's traditional diamond mines, revealing a potential for conflict amidst the promise of economic uplift. Going beyond conventional economic and environmental perspectives, the research employs Galtung's Conflict Theory, examining the interplay of attitudes, behaviours, norms, values, and political influences. By adopting this nuanced approach, the study unveils hidden fault lines within these communities, providing a comprehensive understanding of how diverse factors converge to create discord. The consequences of unaddressed conflict include shattered livelihoods, environmental degradation, and fractured communities. The study employs rigorous quantitative methods to empower stakeholders in proactive conflict management, including questionnaires and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with data from 400 respondents. The findings underscore the significant roles of behaviours, attitudes, norms, and politics in fueling tension, with values demonstrating surprisingly less direct influence. This insight is a roadmap for conflict prevention and sustainable development, allowing stakeholders to tailor interventions based on specific conflict-driving factors. The study urges a shift from reactive to proactive measures, envisioning a future where prosperity continues to glimmer and communities thrive in harmony, free from conflict.

Mitigation of land fires that occur in wetland areas, especially in peatlands, continues to be addressed by the community in Banjarbaru, South Kalimantan Province. Local wisdom that applies in the community, which includes local knowledge, local value, local skills, local sources, and regional society solidarity, is expected to reduce the risk of land fires. The research objective is to analyze the value of local wisdom for peatland fire reduction in the wetland area of South Kalimantan. The respondents interviewed were 30 from the Community and Fire Care Community or Masyarakat Peduli Api (MPA) members. Local wisdom prevailing in the community can reduce the risk of peatland fires. The community has the local knowledge, local value, local skills, local sources, and local society solidarity in managing peatlands. Peatlands managed by communities are less likely to burn than unmanaged lands. The tapulikampar system is a local wisdom in the Banjar community to prepare agricultural peatlands without burning. The Banjar community also has good skills in managing peatlands, which are not easily damaged and prone to burning. Cooperation between community groups in MPA is also well implemented in monitoring land fires and suppression efforts. The community makes maximum efforts so that peatlands are not damaged, and the risk of fire can be reduced because potential resources on peatlands must be passed on to the next generation.

The role of Masyarakat Peduli Api (MPA) (Anti Fire Community) is to prevent those problems mainly focused on the society to combat the climate impact specifically air pollution and land fire in Bengkalis regency. The purpose of this research is to design a communication pattern for the prevention of forest and land fires based on community empowerment in Desa Wisata, Bukit Batu, Kab. Bengkalis. This study uses a Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) by generating village mapping, season calendar, village tracing, Venn diagram, changes and trends analysis, and metrics ranking. The subject in this study were Anti Fire Community Bengkalis regency, visitors, and the public in general.
