Abstract

Kubu Raya Regency, as one of the regions with a substantial extent of peatland areas, faces significant challenges in achieving sustainable peatland governance. This study aims to analyze policies related to sustainable peatland governance in Kubu Raya Regency by examining regulatory frameworks, institutional arrangements, policy implementation, and the constraints encountered by local governments. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach through document analysis of laws and regulations, regional planning documents, and official government reports. The findings indicate that the policy framework for peatland governance in Kubu Raya Regency is in place and aligned with national policies; however, its implementation remains suboptimal. Major challenges include limited cross-sectoral coordination, inadequate institutional capacity, and economic pressures on peatland utilization. This study concludes that strengthening policy integration, enhancing institutional capacity, and promoting community participation are key factors in achieving sustainable peatland governance in Kubu Raya Regency.
