Abstract

This study focuses on state forest protection management in Central Highlands Vietnam, particularly in the Krong Bong District, Dak Lak Province, examining the role of community participation. The Central Highlands, a region rich in biodiversity and ecological significance, is severely impacted by deforestation, illegal logging, and land-use changes. This study assesses the current state of forest governance and proposes sustainable development improvement strategies. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, integrating secondary data, such as government reports and forest management reports from Krong Bong District, Đak Lak Province, as well as previous studies, with primary data collected from surveys of 96 forest managers and 60 households. The results show that forest management governance is organized but faces limited resources and overlapping responsibilities. The forest area increased from 65,054 hectares in 2019 to 68,740 hectares in 2022 due to reforestation efforts. However, rigid forest protection policies, limited community participation, inexperienced personnel, and over 1,100 forestry law violations between 2019 and 2022 underscore the challenges in law enforcement. This study signifies the crucial role of community engagement, which is still formally recognized as a weak part of forest protection management. It identifies the needs of community-based models that can ensure benefit-sharing, clear legal entitlements, and participatory planning processes, in coordination with government agencies and forest owners, to further prevent fragmented implementation.

Abstract

This article examines a collaborative project that involves diverse actors in the co-creation of community-based design within an agricultural context. This study focuses on the implementation of the role-playing model as a practice that cultivates empathy, reflexivity, and collective agency among actors. The model is implemented through several methods, including collective reading of the context, dynamic role shifting, and the negotiation of architectural program. As part of community service, this seven-day program involved four groups, each consisting of four local students and two international students, four lecturers and design practitioners, and four household units, to participate in the role-playing and co-creation in designing for the community in Tajuk Village, Central Java, Indonesia. The exploration revealed that the co-creation process emphasizes the fluidity of roles, highlighting a dynamic decision-making process in which authority is distributed and continually reconfigured. Knowledge is co-produced through reciprocal engagement, enabling the integration of multiple perspectives into the design process. Furthermore, the role-playing model contributes to the broader discourse of participatory design study, offering a flexible and integrative framework that supports inclusive and sustainable community development by merging description, interpretation, and critical analysis by and for the community.

Abstract

This article evaluates the opportunities and challenges of the Tulong Dunong Program (TDP), a government-sponsored program that seeks to provide access to education for disadvantaged Filipino learners in the Philippines. The research tackles contextual literature, from international to local, on how far TDP has expanded education access, an offshoot of which has decreased the dropout rate and increased socio-economic mobility. This research employs a systematic literature review to analyze the impact and challenges of the TDP of the Philippines. The dominant thematic categories that emerged were the positive effect of financial assistance on performance and retention, the importance of financial literacy to gain from the program, and hindrances such as delayed payment, insufficient funding, and bureaucratic inefficiency. Based on the review, it is shown how the TDP has managed to even the playing field in terms of providing access to tertiary education to various marginalized groups by eliminating cost as a limiting factor; there still exist, however, barriers that need to be addressed so that the TDP can realize its vision. The recommended policy interventions include augmented funding, simplification of application procedures, enhanced outreach activities, implementation of sound monitoring and evaluation systems, and inclusion of financial literacy training. These will help promote better implementation of the program and ensure that it continues to provide equitable opportunities to Filipino students, as a part of community empowerment and national development. According to the findings of the study, the TDP turned out to be one of the best instruments of the Philippine government in democratizing higher education toward inclusive development for the communities, notwithstanding its weaknesses.

Abstract

This paper examines the idea of modularity as an extensive framework within the participatory design approach. Modularity is explored not only as a design and construction method but also as a collaboration framework that allows architecture to evolve through collaboration. In exploring the idea, this paper elaborates modularity through a community service design project at Alun-Alun Cemara Miagan, an open space in Miagan Mojoagung, Indonesia, emphasizing a participatory approach that involved local stakeholders and architects in developing a multifunctional public space. Due to the phased funding from the government, the project adopted modular strategies to enable flexible, incremental development aligned with community input. Three modular prototypes were developed: a gate responding to budget and fabrication constraints; a canopy providing adaptable shaded areas; and a building offering spatial flexibility for public functions. Through collaborative ideation in the participatory process, the hands-on engagement and iterative refinement from the community directly informed these design outcomes. This study demonstrates that modularity also supported local industries and addressed funding rhythms, demonstrating its value in both technical and social dimensions. The study also concludes that modular design can foster resilient, adaptable, and resource-efficient public spaces. It contributes to the discourse on community-based architecture and suggests future exploration of digital tools to enhance participatory modular development.

Abstract

This study proposes a community-based evaluation framework to assess and improve the existing conditions of post-tsunami schools based on the occupants’ evaluations. Rapid, donor-driven reconstruction often defaults to ‘fit-for-all’ solutions that bypass community needs, resulting in facilities that are misaligned with local contexts. This project focused on Lampageu State Elementary School in Banda Aceh, Indonesia, which was reconstructed in 2009 by a German NGO after the 2004 tsunami. The project began by observing the school’s physical condition through the community engagement team, followed by a review and exploration of the school’s design needs with the school community. The community-based evaluation framework considers age as the basis for involvement, inviting 69 students to join the drawing workshops, 11 teachers, and 20 community members to join focus group discussion (FGD) sessions. Visual and narrative data from the community participation activities were analyzed thematically to reveal critical aspects to be improved. Based on the analysis, three essential design aspects for this evaluation framework are identified: physical enhancements, spatial experience, and functional safety, which were realized in a school redesign proposal. As a result, this study also provided a replicable framework through community participatory evaluation for improving the post-disaster design project. It expands the possibility of incorporating occupants’ perspective as a collective approach to translating community insights into design improvements.

Abstract

The paper discusses a community project related to local food production by a group of women in an idle peri-urban landscape. Instead of positioning women solely as homemakers within the house, this project views them as active participants of a peri- urban community. On the other hand, the availability of idle land in the peri-urban context can be utilized, allowing it to be transformed into an active space for growing food. Responding to the idea, a community project was conducted with a group of women farmers in a housing complex situated near the Bubulak Village, Bogor, Indonesia. They utilized an open space that had been idle for a long time and transformed it into a community farming space, a productive land for cultivating vegetables and other horticultural plants. To support the enthusiasm for this project, a training program was conducted to produce liquid organic fertilizer and compost, aiming to increase plant productivity through an organic method. The process was observed qualitatively, with a particular focus on the transfer of knowledge. As this community values a healthy lifestyle, the introduction of organic fertilizer becomes a crucial foundation for creating potential business ventures that can drive the family and local economy. Furthermore, as this project highlights the critical role of women in everyday life, it involves two key activities in transforming idle landscapes—producing organic fertilizer and formulating a potential business venture. The empowerment project in this study has demonstrated a positive impact on the community’s resilience in producing and maintaining high-quality local food.
