Abstract

Floods and landslides are one of the many main problems faced in Indonesia, including in Southeast Sulawesi, which has a major impact on the lives of its people. In dealing with floods and landslides, mitigation knowledge is needed as an effort to recognize the risk of floods and landslides, as well as how to deal with them. This study aims to evaluate the level of knowledge of grade VIII students of SMPN 01 Wundulako, Kolaka Regency related to flood and landslide disaster mitigation. Through research using a quantitative approach to disaster education, students are equipped with an understanding of the causes, impacts, and mitigation actions of disasters. The results of the study show that the percentage of students' knowledge about flood disaster mitigation, which is 79.7%, is in the high category, and the percentage of students' knowledge level about landslide disaster mitigation, which is 89%, is in the very high category, so that the average of the overall data is 84.4%. Knowledge about disaster mitigation needs to be improved through learning programs that are structured, interactive, and in accordance with students' level of understanding. This step is expected to be able to create a generation that is more aware and ready to face potential disasters in the future.

Abstract

Spatial analysis is important for understanding how service facilities are distributed in a region and identifying key locations within that area. This study examines the layout of service facilities and trends in centrality in Labuhan Batu Regency, employing the Scalogram Method in conjunction with Centrality Analysis. The Scalogram Method evaluates the variations and access levels of service facilities to classify sub-districts according to their hierarchical positions, while Centrality Analysis determines important areas that greatly influence spatial dynamics and the delivery of services. The findings show significant variations in the ranking of services and regional importance, with Rantau Utara recognized as the primary service center, attaining the top scores in both the scalogram and centrality evaluations. In addition, Bilah Hulu and Rantau Selatan demonstrate significant spatial impact, enhancing their functions as secondary service hubs. In comparison, areas such as Panai Hilir, Panai Hulu, and Pangkatan are rated lower in terms of service order and importance, highlighting the need for enhanced infrastructure and improved distribution of services. The classification of centrality into four distinct categories creates an organized method for comprehending spatial impact, highlighting the distinctions between primary service centers and less central areas. These results emphasize the importance of fair regional development, indicating the need for specific policies to increase access to services, strengthen connections between regions, and promote balanced infrastructure development. By combining findings from the Scalogram and Centrality Analysis, this study provides valuable viewpoints for regional planning, presenting essential suggestions to improve service distribution and promote spatial equality in Labuhan Batu Regency

Abstract

The Triple Bottom Line (TBL) concept emphasizes that in managing an organization, attention is not only given to the financial aspect (Profit), but must also contribute to society (People) and play an active role in preserving the environment (Planet). The triple bottom line approach is very relevant for the development of Tourist Attractions, with the aim of integrating the interests of society, the environment, and improving economic welfare. This study aims to apply the triple bottom line concept in the management of the Gunung Nona Tourist Attraction in Enrekang Regency. Data collection methods used include documentation studies, in-depth interviews, and observations. Data analysis was carried out using qualitative descriptive techniques. The results of the study indicate that the management of the Gunung Nona Tourist Attraction in Enrekang Regency will be more effective if the Triple Bottom Line Model approach is applied. However, the managers of the Tourist Attraction have implemented the principles of TBL, but in reality it still needs to be improved, especially in terms of community involvement and environmental management. Keywords: Tourism Attraction Development, Triple Bottom Line, Mount Nona

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors causing flooding in Peoho Village, Watubangga District, Kolaka Regency. The type of research used in this study is descriptive research with qualitative and quantitative approaches. The data used in this study consists of rainfall data, soil type, slope gradient, land use, drainage system, flood control buildings and river conditions in Peoho Village. The data were collected using various methods including observation techniques, interviews, and documentation. Qualitative data were analyzed using qualitative data analysis according to Creswell. While quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Based on the results of the study, the factors causing flooding in Peoho Village, Watubangga District, Kolaka Regency were caused by various factors, including moderate to high rainfall intensity. Another factor that causes flooding is the type of chromic latosol soil. This type of soil has a clay texture and small pores so that it quickly becomes saturated and water is difficult to absorb into the soil. The slope of the slope in Peoho Village which is dominated by flat and gentle slopes also contributes to the occurrence of flooding. Land use factors dominated by plantation land and a drainage system that does not function properly are also factors that cause flooding in Peoho Village.

Abstract

Nagari Sumpur is a local tourism village that still has Minangkabau cultural heritage. However, the main challenge is the lack of participation of the younger generation in preserving customs and the need for a balance between modernization and preservation of tradition in tourism management. This commitment is intended to determine the potential of local wisdom that can be integrated into sustainable tourism and culture-based management strategies. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach that includes direct observation, interviews with traditional managers, tourism managers, communities, tourists, and data analysis related to the sustainability of cultural tourism. The results of the commitment indicate that traditions such as Landai, traditional Silat and makan bajamba can be packaged as part of a tourism program to increase attraction and at the same time maintain cultural identity. With the right strategy, Nagari Sumpur can develop as a model for sustainable local wisdom-based tourism villages.

Abstract

The Raja Ampat conservation area in Southwest Papua is facing increasing ecological pressure due to nickel mining activities taking place on small islands such as Gag, Kawei and Manuran. This study aims to analyze the environmental crisis through a literature review approach with a geospatial and environmental ethics perspective. The results show significant changes in land cover between 2015 and 2023, characterized by secondary forest degradation and increased marine sedimentation around the mine site. Spatial data from various sources indicate overlaps between mining business licenses (IUPs) and conservation zones, potentially weakening the ecological function and integrity of conservation areas. In terms of environmental ethics, the practice of resource exploitation in this high ecological value area reflects an anthropocentric approach that ignores the intrinsic value of nature and the rights of local communities to a sustainable living space. This study recommends the need for a moratorium on mining in conservation areas, synchronization of spatial planning policies, strengthening the participation of indigenous peoples, and integrating the principles of ecological justice in environmental decision-making.

Abstract

This study examines the practices and perceptions of urban residents regarding household waste sorting in Gorontalo City, Indonesia.  This study involved 400 household respondents, covering eight sub-districts and 50 urban villages within Gorontalo City. Five key dimensions were assessed including knowledge of environmental and economic benefits, individual motivation, preferences for sorting incentives, perceived difficulty, and actual sorting habits. Data were analyzed using descriptive quantitative techniques with tabulation and percentage analysis. The findings reveal that 73.75% of respondents are aware of the benefits of waste sorting. However, only 32.75% are motivated by environmental awareness, while others are constrained by limited facilities or habitual barriers. Incentive preferences show that 41.25% of respondents favor financial compensation, while 42% prefer improved access to sorting infrastructure. In terms of perceived difficulty, 48.5% consider waste sorting easy, but 37.5% find it moderately difficult and 14% perceive it as difficult. Ultimately, only 12.75% of respondents consistently sort their waste, 39.75% do so occasionally, and 47.5% never engage in sorting. These findings highlight a significant knowledge action gap and underscore the need for integrated policy strategies that combine education, infrastructure development, and incentive-based community engagement to foster sustainable household waste sorting behavior.
