Socio-cultural dynamics in community support in post-consumtion plastic waste management: A case study of DKI Jakarta region

oai:ojs2.journal-iasssf.com:article/732Introduction: Population growth in urban areas, fuelled by migration from rural areas, has changed lifestyles and socio-cultural dynamics. The dynamic lifestyle of urban communities changes consumption behaviour so that people prefer practical and economical products. There are fundamental issues that arise in the waste management system in Indonesia, including limited waste management capacity in the regions, inadequate infrastructure, implementation of regulations, and lack of public awareness including the consumer goods manufacturing industry on post-consumption waste management issues. This study aims to understand the perception and level of community participation as well as the role of the informal sector in post-consumption plastic waste management, with a focus on the implementation of the extended producer responsibility (EPR) scheme. Methods: Data was collected through a questionnaire survey and literature study in five areas of DKI Jakarta. Through the concept of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), the manufacturing industry is encouraged to contribute to the management of plastic packaging waste produced. This research uses quantitative and qualitative methods with data analysis using descriptive statistics. Finding: The results show that the community supports EPR-related regulations and is ready to participate in plastic waste management schemes. This positive perception reflects changes in socio-cultural values that prioritise environmental concerns. The informal sector also makes an important contribution to plastic waste reduction, especially through collection, distribution, and processing activities in stalls and waste banks. Community support and the role of the informal sector in plastic waste management reflect changes in social attitudes and behaviours that are increasingly concerned about the environment. Conclusion: Therefore, active involvement in plastic waste reduction initiatives also reflects a cultural change that is increasingly integrated in urban communities.

Background: Village Owned Enterprises in Indonesia are business entities in villages that are based on a spirit of kinship and mutual cooperation. The essence of the management of Village Owned Enterprises should represent local wisdom and values attached to the village.

Findings: The village as the smallest unit of the Indonesian Government has autonomous authority to regulate and meet the needs of the village community by mobilizing all the village's natural resource potential to create village economic independence, one of which is by establishing a Village-Owned Enterprise. When analyzed from a historical perspective, Village-Owned Enterprises have experienced a very significant change in legal arrangements through Law Number 11 of 2022 concerning Job Creation which states that Village-Owned Enterprises are legal entities. This juridical fact is the background to research on legal principles in the Management of Village-Owned Enterprises by elaborating local wisdom values as the embodiment of business entities with village characteristics involving community participation. Conclusion: The results of the study show that community participation in the management of Village-Owned Enterprises is the main thing needed to optimize the management of Village-Owned Enterprises that can provide benefits and welfare without abandoning village local wisdom values. Novelty/Originality of this article: Therefore, the role of the community in realizing the values of village local wisdom in the management of Village-Owned Enterprises is very much needed, bearing in mind that the spearhead of strengthening Village-Owned Enterprises is the concrete manifestation of village community participation. The values of local wisdom attached to the village can be utilized as the characteristics of Village Owned Enterprises in each village. Thus, villages throughout Indonesia have various characteristics in managing village-owned enterprises

Climate Change: Effect of Climate change on Water Resources and Adaptation

Introduction: Climate change has an impact on all sectors of water resources. As a real example, there are many droughts in Indonesia. Changes in the water cycle have caused two extreme conditions, namely an increase in drought conditions which will reduce the natural availability of groundwater. Rainwater Harvesting can be an alternative for adaptation to the current water crisis. The water obtained from rainwater harvesting can be used for many things such as watering plants, washing, bathing, and can even be used for cooking if the quality of the water meets health standards. Methods: The author uses the literature review method. The author searches for literature that is in accordance with the topic of the paper, then makes an analysis, then writes a review of the literature. Findings: . In addition to droughts and erratic rains, climate change is making it harder and harder to find clean water. However, the Indonesian water issue can be solved by using rainwater harvesting. This method is appropriate for harvesting since it takes into account Indonesia's comparatively heavy rainfall. Conclusion: This study concludes that the community can employ rainwater gathering as a water-saving technique to supply clean water needs. Rainwater harvesting will be able to support the survival of both the current and future generations by helping to maintain environmental and water sustainabilit
