Abstract

The protection and management of the environment as the primary life support system for humans in a harmonious, balanced manner through the preservation of biodiversity habitats within biodiversity conservation frameworks are manifestations of safeguarding the fundamental rights of every citizen, which must be continuously protected and ensured for its sustainability. This research aims to understand, analyze, and evaluate the implementation of biodiversity habitat preservation efforts through biodiversity conservation management areas through the enactment of regional legislation, including in the Province of Bangka Belitung Islands, Indonesia. This study utilizes a normative juridical legal research method with statute, case, conceptual, and analytical approaches. Data collection techniques involve literature review, observational methods, and in-depth interviews. This research findings indicate that the regulation regarding biodiversity conservation management has not yet been fully effective, as it primarily focuses on protection and lacks consideration for sustainable utilization. Challenges in biodiversity habitat preservation implementation include synchronization and harmonization issues in regulation, particularly regarding the division of authority between the central and regional governments in natural resource conservation and the limited involvement of communities, including local communities in conservation areas, to access and oversee the sustainable use of biodiversity resources based on local wisdom. Strengthening implementation measures, such as more robust and effective law enforcement, clear delineation of authority among institutional frameworks, and further development of substantive materials through scientific approaches in the field of biodiversity, is essential. Additionally, expanding the involvement of local communities in management and utilization activities in accordance with principles and procedures is necessary.

Abstract

This research aims to describe the elements that cause Generation Z to be uninterested in pursuing local culture as cultural heritage and the role of stakeholders for Generation Z in the preservation and continuity of local culture in Indonesia. This research uses a qualitative descriptive research method with a case study approach. Primary data collection techniques include interviews, observations, documents, and focus group discussions. The informant selection technique was carried out through purposive sampling. Data validity uses source triangulation and data analysis techniques through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The research results show that the reason Generation Z is not interested in studying local culture is because the manufacturing process is long and complicated, lazy and tedious work, and not economical. Stakeholders who play a role in increasing Generation Z's desire for local cultural sustainability consist of a) family, b) government, and c) community leaders. The role of stakeholders in sustaining local culture for Generation Z is mentoring and training SMEs to create and preserve local crafts, increasing competence, assistance with production materials, copyright protection for local craft products, and collaboration between agencies and institutions to support the younger generation in having enthusiasm. to want to learn and be skilled, publish literature related to guidelines or guides on how to preserve local crafts in hardcopy and e-book.

Abstract

Papua Island has extensive forests and agricultural land. Forestry and agriculture on the Indonesian island of Papua have been partially utilized, but the optimization of utilization so that it has added value has not been fully worked out so that there is a need for a special study of this problem. This paper aims to reveal the facts of the suboptimal utilization of forestry and agriculture in Papua. This study adopts a case study based on the results of official government reports and related research results that have been published. Papua in this study is the island of Papua which is included in the territory of the Republic of Indonesia. The analysis was carried out using the SWOT method and discussed descriptively based on the findings obtained. The results of the study show that forestry utilization is only limited to wood. Exploitation of Papuan forest wood is carried out and traded as raw materials, other forest assets have not been cultivated or worked on but are not well organized. Meanwhile, the agricultural products that are traded are not the typical agricultural crops native to Papua. This situation has an impact on trade values that do not benefit the indigenous Papuans.

Abstract

The philanthropic movement by Muhammadiyah is a concrete manifestation of the practice of Islamic teachings oriented towards the values of faith and humanity. This study aims to dig deeper into how Muhammadiyah carries out philanthropic activities, not only limited to religious aspects but also covering broad social and humanitarian aspects. Through a qualitative approach, this study explores various Muhammadiyah charitable programs and initiatives that have positively impacted society. By adopting the principles of Ta'awun (helping each other) and Takaful (taking care of each other), Muhammadiyah has combined faith and humanity in every action. This shows the organization's commitment to responding to various social problems and strengthens Muhammadiyah's identity as an Islamic organization that cares about humanitarian issues. This study also reviews how the Muhammadiyah philanthropic movement can build synergy with various parties, including the government and other organizations, to create sustainable social change. In conclusion, the Muhammadiyah philanthropic movement offers a new perspective in religious practice that focuses on the spiritual, social, and humanitarian dimensions. This shows that strong faith must be realized through real action that can positively contribute to society. In this way, Muhammadiyah showed that religion and humanity can go hand in hand, creating harmony in diversity.
