    Raja Ampat Raja Ampat loosely translates to mean "Four Kings", and is an archipelago in the East of Indonesia made up of 1500 small islands and cays surrounding the main four islands (or Four Kings) of Misool, Salawati, Batanta and Waigeo. The Raja Ampat Regency covers over 40,000 Sq Km of land and sea, including the largest national marine reserve in Indonesia; "Cenderawasih Bay". The Regency is part of the new West Papua province which was formerly know as Irian Jaya. The capital of the regency is Waisai (est. population 6000) which is located on Waigeo and is only a 45 minute boat ride from our island/project site. Raja Ampat sits right in the heart of the "Coral Triangle", which is unquestionably the most bio-diverse area for marine life in the world. Incredibly, the oceans that surround Raja Ampat contain 80% of all the world's coral species (10 times the number of species found in the entire Caribbean!) 1350 species of fish 6 of the world's 7 marine turtle specie 27 varieties of marine mammal. With so many of the 1500 small islands, cays and reefs still to be mapped and discovered, Raja Ampat truly is one of the "worlds" final diving frontiers! Project Summary and Goals Summary: Barefoot Conservation is working in partnership with the Raja Ampat local government, local Papuan Communities and stakeholders, to protect the coral reefs of Raja Ampat and the communities that rely on them. This partnership is bonded by a willingness to make a real difference, and the understanding that research, survey dives and Marine Protected Areas cannot work unless accompanied by education and the sustained alleviation of poverty.

    Pemanfaatan Tumbuhan Berkhasiat Obat Berbasis Pengetahuan Masyarakat Lokal Kampung Nanggouw Distrik Sausapor Kabupaten Tambrauw Muzna Ardin Abdul Gafur1* Universitas Muhammadiyah Sorong, Sorong, Indonesia *E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRAK Kampung Nanggouw Distrik Sausapor Kabupaten Tambrauw merupakan perkampungan penduduk asli suku Abun, terletak di wilayah Pesisir Dsitrik Sausapor Kabupaten Tambrauw. Kampung ini berjarak 108 km dari Kota Sorong, dapat ditempuh dengan perjalanan darat selama lebih kurang 5 jam menggunakan kenderaan roda empat. Permasalahan utama di kampung ini adalah rendahnya tingkat kesehatan masyarakat. Penyakit yang umumnya menyerang adalah malaria, infeksi paru-paru dan penyakit kulit. Fasilitas kesehatan dan pendukungnya masih sangat kurang, di kampung ini tidak terdapat puskesmas. Untuk berobat, masyarakat harus ke Ibukota Distrik atau ke Ibukota kabupaten. Salah satu alternatif penyelesaian masalah kesehatan di Kampung Nanggouw adalah dengan cara membekali masyarakat agar dapat mengatasi permasalahan kesehatan secara mandiri. Kampung dengan kekayaan sumber daya alam yang besar ini memiliki potensi tumbuhan obat yang cukup banyak, akan tetapi informasi dan pengetahuan masyarakat terhadap mafaat tumbuhan obat itu masih sangat kurang. Oleh sebab itu dianggap penting untuk memberikan informasi, pengetahuan, dan pengalaman tentang jenis-jenis tumbuhan berkhasiat obat, cara pengolahan dan penyiapannya dalam bentuk siap pakai. Kegiatan pengabdian ini dilakukan dalam bentuk sosialisai dan penyuluhan kepada masyarakat terutama ibu-ibu, pemuda dan remaja. Kata kunci: Kampung nanggouw; Masyarakat lokal; tumbuhan berkhasiat obat Utilization of Knowledge-Based Medicinal Plants from the Local Community in Nanggouw Village, Sausapor District, Tambrauw Regency ABSTRACT Nanggouw Village, Sausapor District, Tambrauw Regency is a village for the indigenous people of the Abun tribe, located in the coastal area of Sausapor District, Tambrauw Regency.

  • Geography and Social Distribution of Malaria in Indonesian Papua: a Cross‑Sectional Study Wulung Hanandita* and Gindo Tampubolon
    Hanandita and Tampubolon Int J Health Geogr (2016) 15:13 DOI 10.1186/s12942-016-0043-y International Journal of Health Geographics RESEARCH Open Access Geography and social distribution of malaria in Indonesian Papua: a cross‑sectional study Wulung Hanandita* and Gindo Tampubolon Abstract Background: Despite being one of the world’s most affected regions, only little is known about the social and spatial distributions of malaria in Indonesian Papua. Existing studies tend to be descriptive in nature; their inferences are prone to confounding and selection biases. At the same time, there remains limited malaria-cartographic activity in the region. Analysing a subset (N 22,643) of the National Basic Health Research 2007 dataset (N 987,205), this paper aims to quantify the district-specific= risk of malaria in Papua and to understand how socio-demographic/eco= - nomic factors measured at individual and district levels are associated with individual’s probability of contracting the disease. Methods: We adopt a Bayesian hierarchical logistic regression model that accommodates not only the nesting of individuals within the island’s 27 administrative units but also the spatial autocorrelation among these locations. Both individual and contextual characteristics are included as predictors in the model; a normal conditional autoregressive prior and an exchangeable one are assigned to the random effects. Robustness is then assessed through sensitivity analyses using alternative hyperpriors. Results: We find that rural Papuans as well as those who live in poor, densely forested, lowland districts are at a higher risk of infection than their counterparts. We also find age and gender differentials in malaria prevalence, if only to a small degree.

The areas and population groups covered by the Werk- gemeenschap are the Melanesian islands, including New Guinea, Polynesia, including the Maori of New Zealand, Micronesia, and the Australian Aborigines. The disciplines represented in the Society are anthropology, linguistics and demography.1 At a general meeting held in April 1982 a suggestion by one of the members to review the work done by Dutch Oceanists since the Second World War met with genera1 approval. It was then decided that this review should als0 include publications by foreign researchers residing in The Netherlands some time in the course of their scientific activities. In the history of Dutch research on Oceania after World War I1 two phases can be distinguished. The first spans the period between 1949, when Indonesia gained independence, and 1963, when West New Guinea (which had remained under Dutch sovereignty in 1949) was eventually handed over to the Republic of Indonesia.

  • CHRISTIANITY in PAPUA Christianity in Papua
    CHAPTER EIGHT CHRISTIANITY IN PAPUA Christianity in Papua (successively called Papua land or Tanah Papua, Nieuw Guinee, Nederlands Nieuw Guinea, Irian Barat, Irian Jaya, West Irian Jaya/ Papua and West Papua) represents the response of Papuans to the introduction of the Christian faith by missionaries, mainly from the Netherlands, Germany and the United States. To understand this response we must provide some introduction to the characteristics of Melanesian and Papuan culture and reli- gion. Th e history of Christianity in Papua is quite diff erent from that of most other parts of Indonesia. Until the last decades of the twentieth century there was hardly any active political role by Muslims. Missionary work started in the 1850s and has continued slowly since then. About the early 1960s Christianity was the dominant religion of the people and of the government. Papua still is the province with the highest percentage of Christians in the population. Christian mission began in Papua in 1855, almost half a century before the Dutch colonial government entered the territory to establish its fi rst permanent government posts there. Systematic external interference in Papuan indig- enous political and social institutions came late and has been, until recently, quite limited. Traditional ways of life could be preserved, especially in the Highlands, where 40% of the Papuans live. Only in the early 1960s did the Indonesian Government and army begin to intervene intensively, oft en using considerable violence, in the culture, religion and economy of the Papuans. Th is was strongly resisted by the Papuans, who used Christian values and concepts in their struggle for freedom.

  • Raja Ampat Ultimate (South + Central + North) 15 Nights/16 Days
    Raja Ampat Ultimate (south + central + north) 15 nights/16 days Cruise Summary Raja Ampat, or the Four Kings, is an archipelago comprising over 1,500 small islands, cays, and shoals surrounding the four main islands of Misool, Salawati, Batanta, Waigeo and the smaller island of Kofiau. The Raja Ampat archipelago is the part of Coral Triangle which contains the richest marine biodiversity on earth. Raja Ampat is the place where coral species reach 75% of all known species and fish nearly 1,300 species. Raja Ampat is also a paradise for bird watchers. The Raja Ampat islands are a truly natural phenomenon with enormous biological diversity. On this trip we are cruising first with south west course to Misool, one of the major Island of Raja Ampat. Later we will set course north - to Fam Islands, continue via wofoh Iceland into the Alyui bay and continuing with North-West course to Kawe Island. Before we reach our northernmost destination on this journey, Google's famous mushroom Isle of Wayag, we cross the equator. Our way back with southeast course leads us to West GamF, which reminds of an Amazon region. Continue via Arborek to the Dampier Strait. Along the south coast of Mansuar and further northeast we will experience some exciting dives before we reach our starting point and destination port Sorong after crossing the Dampier Strait. Day-1 Your flight will arrive in Sorong, coastal city in the eastern Indonesian province of West Papua. Sorong is the gateway to Indonesia's Raja Ampat Islands. Day 2-15 If possible we offer 3-4 dives daily.
