Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the role of adaptive governance in building community resilience to environmental change in South Sulawesi, Indonesia, by using a socio-ecological approach. It focuses on how governance structures, local knowledge, and multi-stakeholder collaboration can enhance community resilience in response to deforestation, climate change, and resource overexploitation. Subjects and Methods: The research adopted a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative data from semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs) with quantitative survey data. A total of 30 key informants from local communities, government, and NGOs were interviewed, and a survey was conducted among 200 households across different regions in South Sulawesi. The qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis, while the quantitative data were analyzed through descriptive statistics and correlation analysis. Results: The findings highlight that adaptive governance frameworks, which emphasize local knowledge, stakeholder collaboration, and multi-level participation, are crucial for fostering resilience. However, the study also identified significant barriers to effective implementation, including political fragmentation, limited institutional capacity, and resistance to change in some communities. Despite these challenges, community-led initiatives, such as coastal management and ecosystem restoration, were found to enhance local resilience and demonstrate the potential of adaptive governance. Conclusions: This research underscores the importance of adaptive governance in addressing environmental challenges in socio-ecologically complex regions like South Sulawesi. The study emphasizes the need for inclusive, flexible, and locally relevant governance strategies. Future research should focus on expanding adaptive governance models and exploring the sustainability of community-driven adaptation efforts.

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.
