Abstract

Purpose: This study explores the dynamics of social and ecological adaptation within multi-level governance systems, focusing on the community's role in environmental management in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. It aims to assess how governance structures, local knowledge, and community-driven strategies contribute to resilience against environmental challenges such as climate change, deforestation, and resource depletion. Subjects and Methods: A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining a survey (n = 200) to measure community perceptions and governance effectiveness, and semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs) for qualitative insights. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, thematic analysis, and correlation analysis to explore the relationship between governance and community adaptation strategies. Results: The findings reveal that local governance is seen as the most effective in responding to community needs, while national governance is perceived as disconnected and less responsive. Communities actively engage in adaptation strategies like agricultural diversification, sustainable forestry, and water conservation, yet face significant barriers including financial constraints and insufficient infrastructure. Despite the challenges, local governance structures that incorporate community participation and local knowledge are crucial for fostering resilience. Conclusions: The study emphasizes the importance of integrated, multi-level governance that incorporates local knowledge and enhances collaboration between local, national, and non-governmental actors to build community resilience and improve environmental management.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the mechanisms through which agrarian organizations in South Sulawesi adapt to socio-ecological changes. Specifically, it investigates how institutional flexibility, the integration of traditional and modern agricultural knowledge, and collaborative networks contribute to enhancing organizational resilience and community sustainability. Subjects and Methods: The study employed a qualitative case study approach in a selected agrarian community. Data were collected over three months using semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. Twenty-five participants were purposively selected, including farmer group leaders, cooperative members, irrigation association heads, traditional leaders, government agricultural officers, and NGO facilitators. Thematic analysis was applied to identify patterns and themes related to organizational adaptation and adaptive management processes. Results: The study found that institutional flexibility enabled organizations to adjust leadership structures, redistribute responsibilities, and adopt participatory decision-making to address environmental uncertainties such as irregular rainfall and pest outbreaks. The integration of traditional ecological knowledge with modern agricultural practices generated context-specific and culturally grounded strategies that supported productivity and ecological balance. Collaborative networks, both within the community and with government and NGOs, strengthened knowledge exchange, resource mobilization, and coordinated responses to socio-ecological challenges, collectively enhancing community resilience. Conclusions: The study concludes that flexible organizational structures, hybrid knowledge systems, and strong collaborative networks are essential for sustaining agrarian communities under environmental variability. These insights advance management theory by emphasizing adaptive, inclusive, and network-based strategies, offering practical guidance for policymakers and practitioners seeking to build resilient and sustainable agricultural systems in complex socio-ecological contexts.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine how adaptive governance enhances community resilience in responding to environmental change in South Sulawesi, Indonesia, by analyzing how local institutions, social networks, and knowledge systems interact to support collective adaptation strategies. Subjects and Methods: A qualitative research design was employed, involving in-depth interviews with community leaders, local government officials, and key stakeholders in both coastal and upland areas. Data collection was supported by direct field observations and document analysis to capture institutional practices, social interactions, and knowledge-sharing processes. The data were analyzed thematically to identify patterns and relationships that illustrate the mechanisms through which governance and community action contribute to resilience. Results: The findings show that institutional flexibility enables rapid, context-sensitive decision-making and supports the integration of traditional and formal governance structures. Social capital and collective action play vital roles in mobilizing community resources, building trust, and sustaining cooperation in addressing environmental challenges. Knowledge integration, combining local ecological insights with scientific understanding, promotes continuous learning and innovation in adaptation practices. Participatory governance also strengthens legitimacy and community engagement, enhancing the capacity to respond to complex socio-ecological dynamics. Conclusion: The study concludes that resilience in South Sulawesi is strengthened not through rigid control, but through flexibility, collaboration, and continuous learning within socio-ecological systems. Adaptive governance fosters inclusivity, reflexivity, and co-creation among institutions and communities. It positions managers as facilitators of collective intelligence, encouraging distributed leadership, trust-based networks, and equity-centered decision-making to support sustainable and just futures.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines the adaptive capacity of local governments in disaster-prone areas of Central Sulawesi, focusing on mechanisms, strategies, and constraints that shape institutional resilience through leadership, coordination, knowledge systems, and community participation. Subjects and Methods: A qualitative case study was conducted in Palu, Sigi, and Donggala using semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions, and document analysis. Participants included government officials, community leaders, and NGO representatives. Thematic analysis was applied to identify patterns related to adaptive governance, learning processes, and collaborative practices. Results: Adaptive capacity is shaped by effective coordination, strong leadership, and robust knowledge systems that support informed decision-making. Community engagement and collaboration with civil society enhance the relevance of adaptive strategies. However, fragmented coordination, weak institutional memory, inconsistent training, and unequal participation of marginalized groups limit the sustainability of adaptive governance and long-term resilience. Conclusions: Strengthening local government adaptive capacity requires integrated, knowledge-based, and inclusive approaches that connect institutional, technical, and community dimensions. Institutionalizing learning, sustaining collaboration, and ensuring equitable participation can shift local governance from reactive disaster management to proactive resilience, offering important insights for policymakers and practitioners.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to explore the relationship between community participation and the effectiveness of adaptive governance in the coastal areas of Cebu, Philippines. It seeks to identify factors influencing participation and evaluate the governance models that contribute to sustainable resource management in these vulnerable regions. Subjects and Methods: The research utilizes a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews. Surveys were administered to local community members to assess their awareness, participation, and perceptions of governance effectiveness. Interviews were conducted with key stakeholders, including local leaders, government officials, and NGOs, to gain deeper insights into the challenges and enablers of community engagement. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, logistic regression, and thematic analysis. Results: The study found that high levels of community awareness and a preference for community-based and ecosystem-based governance strategies were associated with higher participation in resource management activities. However, barriers such as lack of capacity building, poor information dissemination, and political conflicts hindered full engagement. Key predictors of participation included age, fishing dependency, and awareness of resource management policies. Thematic analysis revealed that local knowledge and inclusive governance models are crucial for effective resource management. Conclusions: The findings highlight the importance of enhancing community participation through targeted capacity-building programs, improved communication strategies, and overcoming resource constraints. Strengthening inclusive governance frameworks can enable coastal communities to manage their resources effectively, adapt to environmental changes, and achieve sustainable outcomes.
