“…We may better understand cultural ecosystem services by studying the actions and perceptions of local people (Bryan et al 2010;Plieninger et al 2013;Pleasant et al 2014). Cultural ecosystem services have typically been analyzed using focused surveys over short time periods (Bryan et al 2010;Plieninger et al 2013), but it is likely that cultural values are not static.…”

Cultural ecosystem services are a function of people and place, so may change as a location transitions from rural to urban. Singapore has undergone rapid urbanization after its independence in 1965, with a concomitant decline in natural habitat extent and accessibility. Using coastal mangrove forests as a case study habitat, changing cultural values were explored with a novel array of techniques, including qualitative archival analysis (photographs, oral histories), current sources (publically uploaded social media photographs), and surveys of (a) the general public and (b) visitors to publically accessible mangroves. Cultural value changed through time, with a significant transition from intrinsic, intrapersonal values (spiritual, cultural heritage) to instrumental, interpersonal values (recreation, education). Additionally, cultural value varied between different mangroves depending on their public accessibility, and the evolving degree of human interaction with the ecosystem as urban development occured. Cultural values change as development transitions, though mangroves still play an important cultural role in a heavily urbanized environment.

“…Cultural ecosystem services have typically been analyzed using focused surveys over short time periods (Bryan et al 2010;Plieninger et al 2013), but it is likely that cultural values are not static. Instead, people are likely to experience and use habitats differently as they are converted and degraded (Selim et al 2014).…”

“…Since spatial conflicts involving local people communities have been a latent problem, holistic knowledge of the ecological system combined with a clear understanding of the social economic and cultural dynamics of the community is essential (Bryan, Raymond, Crossman, & Macdonald, 2010;Ryan, 2011). The approach should pay attention to the issues related to certainty of land tenure and the basic rights of local people, and promote transparent and participatory processes in decision making.…”

“…There must be clear roles and connections among stakeholders in synergizing resources, needs and knowledge for policy formulation. Holistic knowledge of the ecological system combined with a clear understanding of the social economic and cultural dynamics of the community at various levels is essential to improve the quality and effectiveness of an environmental policy (Bryan et al, 2010;Huber et al, 2013;Lesliea et al, 2015;Ryan, 2011). Thus, institutional activities are not only to assemble multi perspectives, needs and interest of stakeholders but also to develop a conducive environment and a better mechanism for data or information sharing.…”

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK FOR SPATIAL PLANNING AND FOREST MANAGEMENT IN INDONESIA: SECURING THE BASIC RIGHTS FOR ADAT PEOPLE. Limited transparency, accountability, and participation in policy formulation as well as implementation mainly based on economic considerations, all lead to failure to attain sustainable forest management (SFM). Along with the reluctance of policy makers and lacking stakeholder capacity, less accurate data bases has also indicated a constraint in the development of appropriate action. The issues have been more complicated where they were correlated with economic imperatives, vested interest, ownership issues and the basic rights of indigenous communities living inside or adjacent the forest. Forest destruction will be no end without securing customary land and territorial rights. To cope with these issues, the concept of fair governance has been promoted as an alternative to the traditional pattern of administration. This paper examines a theoretical framework for policy development in order to attain SFM while respecting the rights of the adat people. We show that adaptive governance, adaptive management, and participatory learning are strategic approaches in governance reform to achieve sustainable forest management securing the customary rights and traditional land use of forest dependent people.Keywords: Forest management, adaptive governance, spatial planning, Indonesia, adat KERANGKA TEORI UNTUK PERENCANAAN TATA RUANG DAN PENGELOLAAN HUTAN DI INDONESIA: PERLINDUNGAN HAK DASAR MASYARAKAT ADAT.

“…The inclusion of the ES concept in processes of ecosystem evaluation and land management provides decision makers with a means of evaluating more holistically the social, economic and biophysical values of an area (Nahuelhual et al, 2016;Sherrouse et al, 2014;Bryan et al, 2010;MA, 2005). Ecosystems and their services have an intrinsic spatial connotation, and one of the main technical and conceptual challenges is their mapping, where the map goes…”

Assessing ecosystem services (ES) and mapping their values are of paramount importance. Here we present two case studies where the participatory mapping of social values of landscape ecosystem services is used in territories with high levels of cultural and biological diversity (Adamello Brenta Natural Park in Italy and the Alto Mayo basin in the Western Amazon, Peru). A mixed-method approach combining social geography fieldwork (participatory mapping) and desk work (GIS analyses) is adopted to improve ES mapping by including multiple actors and to increase awareness. Mapping ecosystem services is not just a technical task; it also highlights social implications of the cartographic process, a key issue in human geography. By taking into account the controversial and multiple roles of maps, and by involving actors in attributing values and mapping their spatial relations to landscape and ES, it is possible to enrich technical knowledge with local knowledge.
