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 aims to evaluate organizational adaptation mechanisms in agrarian communities facing socio-ecological change, with a focus on the relative influence of structural and cultural factors on adaptive capacity. Subjects and Methods: A quantitative cross-sectional survey was conducted among members and leaders of agrarian organizations in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed through descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression, with reliability and validity testing to ensure measurement robustness. Results: The findings indicate that both structural mechanisms, including policy alignment, organizational restructuring, and network collaboration, and cultural mechanisms, such as local knowledge integration, social learning, and shared norms, significantly influence adaptive capacity. However, cultural mechanisms demonstrate a stronger effect, highlighting the importance of socially embedded practices in shaping organizational responses. The integration of structural and cultural dimensions further enhances the explanatory power of the model, indicating a synergistic relationship between institutional arrangements and social processes. Conclusions: Organizational adaptation is a multidimensional and context-dependent process, where cultural dynamics play a central role, supported by structural conditions, in strengthening resilience within agrarian communities.

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.
