The expansion of Balikpapan City is more directed towards coastal areas which are dominated by mangrove forests. This study discusses the destruction of the mangrove forest and its causal factors and how conservation efforts are being carried out to maintain sustainability. Mangrove forest damage data obtained through surveys and image analysis using NDVI. While the factors causing the damage to mangrove forests were obtained from observations and interviews with the mangrove center manager of Balikpapan. The results showed that there were many mangrove forests that had rare or already damaged that were spread in the West Balikpapan, North Balikpapan, and East Balikpapan Sub-district. This damage is caused by natural and non-natural factors. Natural factors that cause damage to mangrove forests are pests and sedimentation. The non-natural factors are due to the pollution and the opening of fish ponds. Preservation efforts are carried out by replanting mangroves which are only carried out by the mangrove center and some CSR and environmentalists and do not involve the community at large. These Conditions make the mangrove forest in Balikpapan City threatened its sustainability. Keywords: Mangrove Damage; Conservation; NDVI A. INTRODUCTION Balikpapan City is one of the increasingly expand the urban area gateways of East Kalimantan as well as towards the coastal area which is a the most developed city in Kalimantan, mangrove forest area. even more after being designated as the The development of cities towards Indonesian Oil and Gas Logistics Center the coast will continue to change the area in 2015.

The first year of this program was funded primarily by the UNOCAL Foundation under Grant Agreement Number 2002-JGP-45. Additional support was provided through the USAID-URI Indonesian Coastal Resources Management Project (CRMP). This report summarizes activities undertaken during the twelve-month grant period from December 2002 through December 2003. The goal of the program is to build the capacity of local non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and communities to implement community-based coastal development and management initiatives. The specific objectives of the program are to: 1) Develop the capacity of local NGOs to design and implement successful community- based coastal development and management programs. 2) Develop the capacity of coastal communities to actively engage in community-based resource management, formulate community development initiatives, and conduct active dialogue with local government and the private sector that leads to mutual agreements concerning resource use conflicts. 3) Develop and strengthen a network of NGOs which actively provides services to coastal communities and which is capable of raising donor funding to support these activities.

A liveable city is a city with a comfortable environment that gives its residents a sense of perfection to live and ease to do various activities. Balikpapan is one of major cities whose has the third-largest population in the province of East Kalimantan consisting of 6 districts namely, South Balikpapan, East Balikpapan, North Balikpapan, West Balikpapan, Central Balikpapan, and Balikpapan City. The consequence that arises from the large population is the increase in crime that affects the liveability in terms of security quality. In this study, Mamdani Fuzzy Logic is used to investigate the level of security quality of each sub- district in this city based on the crime figures. Moreover, the types of criminalities are categorized into four kinds, namely fraud, theft, immoral violence, and other crimes. Based on the result, it was found that the order of sub-districts with the best level of security is Central Balikpapan which is followed by Northern and Eastern Balikpapan with fairly good security status.

  • Consolidating Sustainability 2016 Sustainability Report
    Consolidating Sustainability 2016 Sustainability Report In Papua, lives were lost. Local mountain dwellers, who were persuaded to stop using pork fat to coat their skin and to cleanse themselves with soap instead, experienced increased mortality rates. It turned out that the pork fat, perceived by outsiders as unhygienic, had protected them from the elements and from infection with Malaria that is carried by mosquitoes. Experience teaches that good intentions can go badly awry if assumptions are made without understanding the views and needs of others, cultural diversity, and differences in customs, as well as ways of living. Thorough consideration must be taken of diversity in any attempt at assistance, and that communities must be consulted on what they need. SOKOLA Institute SOKOLA is a not-for-profit organisation providing education for remote indigenous peoples who are unable to access formal education due to geographic and cultural obstacles. The education is aimed at providing the skills required to manage the many problems that indigenous and marginalised communities face due to the increasing pressures from the outside world. Founded in 2003 by Saur Marlina “Butet” Manurung and other four fellows, SOKOLA is an excellent example of how a small number of individuals with strong passion and determination can effect real change. Indika Energy is honoured to have been supporting SOKOLA and its literacy programs. Consolidating Sustainability 2016 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 6 // Consolidating Sustainability // Sustainability is Core to Company’s Business Indika Energy, Indonesia’s leading integrated energy company, provides adequate amounts of safe energy to the public with the understanding that energy is fundamental to human well- being and economic development that enables job creation, greater income equity, and social solidarity.
