Abstract

Nickel mining in Halmahera, especially in Central Halmahera and East Halmahera Regencies, makes a major contribution to the national economy through the downstreaming of strategic minerals. However, these activities have serious impacts on the forest ecosystem and the lives of the O'Hongana Manyawa indigenous people, which relies heavily on their living space for cultural sustainability and livelihoods. This research aims to analyze the co-existence between mining activities and the protection of indigenous communities, with a focus on the legal framework, evaluation of protection practices. The research uses empirical legal methods through in-depth interviews, field observations, and secondary document studies. The research results show that the overlap of mining concession areas with the living spaces of indigenous communities causes environmental damage, social marginalization and loss of cultural identity. Existing regulations, such as AMDAL, do not fully protect the rights of indigenous peoples because their implementation is weak. Therefore, a more balanced approach is needed, such as recognition of traditional territories, application of the principles of Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC), as well as empowerment programs based on local culture. In conclusion, protection of indigenous communities must be a priority to ensure social, cultural and ecological sustainability amidst industrial development.

Abstract

This study analyzes in depth the urgency of establishing customary villages as an instrument for the protection of the spatial planning rights of Gurabunga customary law communities. This study will identify the legal and sociological implications of designation, as well as analyze the potential challenges and mitigation strategies needed to ensure the sustainability of the traditional rights of the Gurabunga people. Through a multidisciplinary approach, this research aims to present a comprehensive framework that can be adopted in efforts to protect and recognize the rights of indigenous peoples in Indonesia. This study will also highlight how overlapping regulations and conflicts of interest, especially related to land grabbing practices, often hinder the protection of indigenous peoples' rights despite existing regulations governing their existence in Indonesian law. The weakness of the implementation of recognition and respect for indigenous peoples is a fundamental problem that underlies discriminatory practices in government policies. Therefore, this study emphasizes the importance of establishing customary villages as a concrete step to strengthen the legal and cultural position of the Gurabunga community, in line with the constitutional mandate to respect their traditional identity and rights.
