Abstract

Background. The rapid expansion of the palm oil industry in Sumatra and Kalimantan has intensified concerns surrounding environmental degradation, waste accumulation, and inefficient resource utilization. Large volumes of solid and liquid waste such as empty fruit bunches, palm kernel shell, fiber, and palm oil mill effluent remain underutilized despite their substantial bioenergy potential. Assuming that all forms of biomass waste can be feasibly converted into energy risks oversimplifying the technical and regulatory complexities involved. Purpose. This mini-review aims to critically assess the feasibility of converting palm oil waste into bioenergy by synthesizing recent scientific findings, technological advancements, and sustainability evaluations from studies conducted between 2015 and 2025. Method. The review employs a qualitative synthesis approach, drawing from peer-reviewed journal articles, government reports, and institutional publications related to waste-to-energy technologies, policy frameworks, and case studies in Indonesia’s palm oil regions. Sources were selected through a systematic screening process using Scopus and ScienceDirect databases. Results. Findings indicate that several technologies such as anaerobic digestion, pyrolysis, gasification, and direct combustion demonstrate promising conversion efficiencies, particularly for palm oil mill effluent and empty fruit bunches. Nonetheless, high capital costs, inconsistent waste collection systems, technological maintenance barriers, and weak policy enforcement continue to hinder large-scale implementation. Socio-economic conditions, especially in rural Kalimantan, further affect the scalability of bioenergy initiatives. Conclusion. The review concludes that converting palm oil waste into bioenergy is technically viable but only conditionally feasible when supported by integrated policy frameworks, community-based waste management, and long-term investment strategies. Strengthening cross-sector collaboration remains essential for sustainable implementation.

Abstract

Background. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on the global tourism industry, particularly in popular destinations like Bali, Indonesia. As the world begins to recover, tourism faces the challenge of adapting to a "new normal" that prioritizes sustainability, health protocols, and local community involvement. This mini-review explores best practices for sustainable tourism in Bali, focusing on how destinations can adapt post-pandemic while ensuring long-term environmental, social, and economic benefits. Purpose. The primary aim of this study is to assess the sustainability strategies implemented by Bali's tourism sector in the aftermath of the pandemic.   Method. A qualitative review was conducted, examining existing literature, government reports, and case studies of sustainable tourism practices in Bali. The review identifies key areas such as eco-tourism, community-based tourism, and the integration of health and safety standards into tourism operations. Results. The findings highlight that Bali has begun to implement a range of sustainable practices, including the promotion of eco-friendly accommodations, the development of responsible tourism guidelines, and the involvement of local communities in decision-making. However, challenges such as over-tourism, waste management, and the need for further collaboration among stakeholders remain. Conclusion. In conclusion, Bali’s tourism sector is taking positive steps toward sustainability post-pandemic, but continued efforts are required to ensure resilience and long-term success. Further research and investment in sustainable tourism infrastructure, coupled with local and global cooperation, will be crucial to the future of Bali as a "new normal" destination.

Abstract

Background. Electronic waste (e-waste) has become one of the fastest-growing waste streams in Indonesia as rapid digitalization, increased consumer demand for electronic devices, and limited recycling infrastructure create significant environmental and public health challenges. Current disposal patterns—dominated by informal collection, open burning, and landfilling—pose risks related to soil contamination, toxic emissions, and exposure to hazardous substances such as lead, cadmium, and mercury. Purpose. This study aims to review national policies, regulatory frameworks, and best practices related to e-waste management in Indonesia through the conceptual lens of the circular economy. Method. The research employs a qualitative literature review design, synthesizing scholarly articles, government documents, international reports, and case-based analyses of e-waste management initiatives. Comparative analysis is used to identify gaps between policy intentions and implementation outcomes while highlighting successful practices at both national and regional levels. Results. Results show that CE-based initiatives—such as formal recycling facilities, producer take-back programs, and repair–reuse ecosystems—have begun to emerge but face barriers related to limited institutional capacity, low public awareness, and dominance of the informal sector. Conclusion. The study concludes that strengthening national coordination, scaling up CE-driven business models, and integrating community participation are essential for Indonesia to achieve sustainable e-waste management aligned with circular economy principles.

Abstract

Background. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs play a vital role in promoting community-based sustainable development, particularly in developing countries like Indonesia. As industries expand, the need for companies to engage in socially responsible practices has become increasingly important to address environmental, social, and economic challenges. Purpose. This study aims to review CSR programs implemented by companies in Indonesia and assess their impact on community-based sustainable development. The research explores various CSR initiatives, focusing on their alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their contributions to local communities. Method. A comprehensive literature review and case study analysis were employed as the research methodology. Data was collected from academic articles, CSR reports, and case studies of companies that have implemented community-driven CSR programs in Indonesia. The study evaluates the types of CSR activities, the sectors involved, and the outcomes for community development. Results. The findings indicate that CSR programs in Indonesia have led to significant improvements in education, healthcare, and environmental sustainability in local communities. However, challenges such as limited stakeholder engagement, insufficient long-term planning, and a lack of monitoring mechanisms hinder the effectiveness of some initiatives. The study also reveals that successful CSR programs are those that actively involve local communities in decision-making and are aligned with their needs. Conclusion. In conclusion, CSR programs in Indonesia have the potential to contribute to sustainable community development, but they require stronger alignment with local priorities, better long-term strategies, and enhanced monitoring to maximize their impact.

Abstract

Background. Public understanding and awareness of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are essential for ensuring effective national implementation, promoting community participation, and strengthening shared responsibility for sustainable development. Indonesia, as one of the earliest adopters of the SDGs, continues to integrate the goals into national policies, local governance, and development programs. Despite these efforts, limited empirical research has examined the extent of public awareness, perceived relevance, and engagement with the SDGs across the Indonesian population. A national survey is therefore needed to assess public perception and identify gaps in knowledge that may hinder broader societal support for sustainability initiatives. Purpose. This study aims to evaluate the level of public awareness, understanding, and attitudes toward the SDGs in Indonesia by analyzing demographic influences, information sources, and perceived national priorities. The research also seeks to identify barriers to SDG engagement and provide recommendations for enhancing public participation in sustainability initiatives. Method. A nationwide quantitative survey was conducted involving 1,462 respondents selected through stratified random sampling to represent Indonesia’s major demographic groups. Data were collected through structured online and offline questionnaires measuring awareness levels, perceived importance of SDGs, and individual behavioral commitments. Descriptive statistics, cross-tabulations, and regression analysis were used to examine patterns and predictors of SDG awareness. Results. Findings reveal that overall awareness of the SDGs is moderate, with substantial variation across age, education level, and urban–rural residence. Respondents identify climate action, poverty reduction, and quality education as the most relevant SDGs for Indonesia, while awareness of goals related to marine ecosystems and responsible consumption remains low. Regression results indicate that education level, media exposure, and civic engagement significantly predict SDG awareness. Conclusion. The study concludes that strengthening SDG literacy through public campaigns, educational integration, and community-based programs is essential for advancing sustainable development efforts in Indonesia.
