BIODIVERSITY AND SOCIAL BENEFITS IN COMMUNITY-BASED FOREST MANAGEMENT: THE LEUSER ECOSYSTEM, INDONESIA Vince Deschamps Advisor: University of Guelph, 2000 Dr. Hanry Cummings This thesis examines the ability of Community Based Forest Management (CBFM) systems to serve the dual function of maintaining biodiversity while providing benefits to local communities. It examines the relationship between biodiversity and social benefit in a variety of forest zones in the Manggamat Community Conservation Forest in South Aceh, Indonesia. The Manggarnat Cornmunity Forest is the flagship CBFM initiative in the Leuser Ecosystem, an area of global biodiversity significance. The CBFM system in Manggamat is guided by Adat, a traditional set of laws derived by the community in order to manage resources fiom the forest The research utilized a formative, results-based evaluative approach, and indicates that CBFM has the potential to balance the protection of keystone and other significant species with the ability to provide benefit at a level equal to, if not superior, other rural areas in South Aceh and the province of D.1- Aceh. Although the system is intended to distribute benefits in a equitable marner, there is some disparity in the distniution of incorne through unsustainable harvesting of timber for sale by a small rninority of resource users. While this puts the sustainability of the CBFM system at risk, it is a problem that is addressed in the research, and cm likely be resolved through negotiation at the community level using Adat in representing greater community interests. ACKNOPYLEDGMENTS This thesis marks the culmination of a long journey of exploration that 1began in May of 199 1 as a bright-eyed CUSO Couperant in the quaint fishing village of Tarnan Jaya in West Java, Indonesia. 1 started on my quest al1 alone, but 1met a lot of people during my journey. Many of them have helped me find my way; some have even corne with me. On a number of occasions 1 gave up, fnistrated, and were it not for the support and undertsanding of my wife Indah, my mother Wilma Deschamps, Indah's mother Aniek Suryati, my dear fiend Mïke Griffiths, and now my son Jacob, 1would not be wrïting these words today. These wondefil people inspire me to make the world a better place. Research cannot be carried out by ambitions alone, and 1wish to thank the following for making this undertaking a success. Funding for the research was generously provided by the CDA Awards for Canadians Program. Dr. Harry Cummings gave me the vision, skills, focus, and offered his wisdom on a range of topics over the past two years. Dr. David Rapport served on my Cornmittee and provided invaluable input to the research process. 1would also like to thank Dr. John Graham and Ms. Dora Goh fiom DRC in Singapore for meeting with me and giving me access to their substantial reference library. In Indonesia 1 am indebted to the Leuser Management Unit and its wonderhi staff, notably Mike, Dr. Kathryn Monk, Ken Proud and Jarnal Gaw-, as well as al1 the people who assisted me in the field and put up with my fiequent questions in the office. I wish the best to my fiends in Manggamat, especially Pak Bintara Yakup and Pak Nyak Merdu of YPPAMAM; 1 hope to see our chikiren play together someday.

Sampai saat ini penelitian masih terfokus di pesisir timur dan pegunungan tengah Aceh, Pesisir barat Aceh belum pernah diteliti. Pesisir barat Aceh merupakan wilayah yang memiliki bentangalam kars cukup luas, dan memiliki potensi gua yang mungkin digunakan sebagai lokasi hunian pada masa lalu. Salah satu metode yang digunakan adalah memprediksi keberadaan gua dengan peta topografi, peta geologi, serta digital elevation model (DEM). Selain itu, hasil inventarisasi gua yang pernah dilakukan di wilayah pesisir barat Aceh juga digunakan sebagai data awal untuk memperoleh sebaran gua dan ceruk. Pada penelitian ini lingkup wilayah yang disurvei adalah Kabupaten Aceh Besar. Tiga parameter gua hunian, yaitu morfologi dan genesa, lingkungan, serta kandungan arkeologis, digunakan untuk memperoleh gambaran potensi masing-masing gua. Sebelas gua dan ceruk yang telah ditemukan menunjukkan adanya tiga buah gua berpotensi sebagai lokasi hunian dan diteliti lebih lanjut, empat gua berpotensi sebagai lokasi hunian tetapi tidak berpotensi untuk diteliti, dan empat gua berkategori tidak potensial sebagai lokasi hunian. Kata Kunci: Gua; Ceruk; Karst; Pesisir Barat Aceh; Prasejarah ABSTRACT The evidence of prehistoric life in Aceh has been proven by the results of archeological research conducted by the Archaeology Research Office of North Sumatera.

  • Aceh Conflict Monitoring Update 1St December 2008 – 28Th February 2009
    47974 Aceh Conflict Monitoring Update 1st December 2008 – 28th February 2009 World Bank Public Disclosure Authorized From last December to February, violent incidents rose back to high levels, with a peak of 36 reported cases in January, and 31 in December and 26 in February. 1 Sixteen people died, 47 were injured, and 17 buildings or vehicles were damaged over the three months. Most casualties resulted from personal disputes. However, the leap in the number of violent cases was caused largely by pre-electoral incidents, which accounted for a quarter to a third of all violent cases in January and February. There was a surge in grenade explosions, arsons and other attacks on political parties (13 cases), and three or four members of Partai Aceh (PA) and KPA 2 were assassinated in early February. This heightened tensions between these organizations and the security forces to alarming levels and raised fears of an escalation in violence in the run-up to the elections. The political violence led to renewed calls by the provincial government for the involvement of internationals in monitoring the elections. Arguments presented by opponents to international monitoring sometimes relied on anti- foreign sentiment. In early February, two aid workers were arrested by the military in Bireuen, accused of being spies. Finally, the Israeli military offensive in Gaza and a Governor’s decree Public Disclosure Authorized on praying houses for non-Muslims led to protests by Islamic organizations. The Islamic Defenders Front (FPI), a hardline group with a track-record of violent and criminal behavior, used this opportunity to raise its profile in Aceh and organize paramilitary training for volunteers to Jihad.
