Abstract

Talking about human rights in the absence of development is nonsense. Therefore, Palestinian human rights are deficient due to the disruption of development in the occupied Palestinian territories. The purpose of this study is principally to analyze the obstacles to the development process in Palestine, examine the scope of the role of the United Nations in supporting development in Palestine under Israeli occupation, and compare that with its role in Rakhine. The methodology refers to a comparative analytical study and a statutory and conceptual approach, revealing that the existence of the Israeli occupation is considered the main obstacle to development in Palestine; and the role of the United Nations has been ineffective to date in ending this occupation; therefore, the role of the United Nations in protecting the Palestinians' right to development is very limited, as the realization of the right to development is linked to the realization of the right to self-determination for the Palestinian people. Development requires the unification of regions and the optimal exploitation of natural resources, but this is not possible in Palestine because of the policies of the Israeli occupation in building settlements, imposing a complete blockade on the Gaza Strip and separating it from the West Bank, and dividing the West Bank into areas of influence, as well as imposing complete control over the natural resources and preventing the Palestinians from benefiting from them, with the aim of keeping the Palestinian economy weak and under Israeli control, thereby keeping the Palestinian decision under the influence of Israel. In conclusion, the role of the United Nations is ineffective in supporting development in Palestine and Rakhine, due to the inability of the Security Council to take any effective action due to the disagreement of the permanent members.

Abstract

Local wisdom encompasses community-derived knowledge and practices transmitted through generations, highlighting the importance of balance with the environment. In Indonesia, traditional methods like the size in Papua and subak in Bali are crucial for maintaining ecological equilibrium. This study seeks to investigate the influence of local wisdom on environmental management and assess the degree to which Indonesian environmental policy facilitates or obstructs its application. This research employs a normative legal method and literature analysis to analyze laws, regulations, and customary practices about environmental governance. The findings indicate that although several legislative instruments—such as Law No. 32/2009 on Environmental Protection and Law No. 5/1990 on Conservation—recognize and endorse traditional knowledge, obstacles remain. Modernization, divergent commercial interests, and insufficient local government backing frequently marginalize Indigenous knowledge. Furthermore, the execution of policies is often inconsistent and occasionally detrimental. The study asserts that incorporating indigenous knowledge into environmental policy formulation is crucial for sustainable resource management in Indonesia. Enhancing legal acknowledgment, promoting multi-stakeholder cooperation, and increasing policymakers' awareness are essential.  Acknowledging local knowledge guarantees ecological sustainability and promotes social fairness for indigenous populations
