The council and the government in mid January had already agreed on 718 items on the Problem Inventory List (DIM) and established a working committee to work on the bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the bill is considered to have not changed the state-centered conservation model when in fact, indigenous and local communities are known to have an important role in conservation. As a result, differences in perception between indigenous peoples and state officials often takes place, and unavoidable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To bridge these differences, the civil society coalition through the Working Group Indigenous and Community Conserved Areas Indonesia (WGII) is calling on the government and lawmakers to improve the formal and material aspects of the conservation bill. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The proposed improvements are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walhi.or.id\/uploads\/buku\/policy%20brief%20_RUU%20KSDAHE_WGII%20_%20Feb%2023.pdf\">outlined<\/a> in the <strong>&#8220;Policy Brief: Seven notes for improving the KSDAHE bill to strengthen the role and participation of communities in the implementation of conservation&#8221;<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We hope that this bill will not further complicate the struggle of indigenous peoples in their rights to protect their land,&#8221; Ardana said, adding that the bill can iron out the differences in perception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ardana underlined the struggles that his community is facing. The Dalem Tamblingan indigenous people in Bali\u2019s Buleleng district has proposed for the Alas Mertajati forest to be designated as a customary forest, while the government designated the area as a Nature Tourism Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kasmita Widodo, coordinator of WGII Indonesia, said that the conservation bill also needs to give more authority to indigenous peoples while under the current legislation, indigenous peoples are named as conservation partners, who structurally are subordinate to the technical implementing unit (UPT) in a conservation area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-minimizing-conflicts\"><strong>Minimizing conflicts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Data from the Indigenous Peoples Alliance of the Archipelago (AMAN) shows there are around 1.6 million hectares (ha) of indigenous territories that overlap with conservation areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While according to the Participatory Mapping Working Network (JKPP) report, there are overlapping participatory mapping of 4.5 million ha in conservation areas, 2.9 million ha of which are in National Parks. This is one of the major issues that bill working committee is expected to address.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"645\" height=\"771\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ekuatorial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-22-at-12.57.52.png?resize=645%2C771&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-92953\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ekuatorial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-22-at-12.57.52.png?w=645&amp;ssl=1 645w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ekuatorial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-22-at-12.57.52.png?resize=251%2C300&amp;ssl=1 251w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ekuatorial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-22-at-12.57.52.png?resize=400%2C478&amp;ssl=1 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 645px) 100vw, 645px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Distribution of participatory mapping in conservation areas.

Article 24, point (1) of this bill only considers the recommendations from government institutions in the field of research and the development of science and technology,\u201d Arizona said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-recognition-of-indigenous-peoples\"><strong>Recognition of indigenous peoples<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The conservation bill is expected to make peace with indigenous peoples by simplifying the recognition mechanism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Monica Ndoen, special staff to the AMAN Secretary General said that the inventory list of problems of the bill still authorizes regional regulations (perda) to regulate\u00a0the recognition of the status of indigenous peoples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, based on AMAN&#8217;s experience, the process of requesting recognition of indigenous peoples through local regulations takes at least 2 years. Meanwhile, AMAN members are now estimated to be around 20 million indigenous people, spread across 2,512 communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere are so many beyond that (number). It is impossible for us to hope (they get recognized),  there should be a regional regulation first and then can (the recognition request) be accommodated,\u201d Ndoen said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"945\" height=\"765\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ekuatorial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-22-at-13.00.28-1.png?resize=945%2C765&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-92955\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ekuatorial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-22-at-13.00.28-1.png?w=945&amp;ssl=1 945w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ekuatorial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-22-at-13.00.28-1.png?resize=300%2C243&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ekuatorial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-22-at-13.00.28-1.png?resize=768%2C622&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ekuatorial.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-22-at-13.00.28-1.png?resize=400%2C324&amp;ssl=1 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 945px) 100vw, 945px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: WGII<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Arizona added, to facilitate the process of recognizing indigenous peoples, the conservation bill must transfer authorization from local regulations or regent decrees to that of the central data collection by the government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor example, the data collection process for the ID card. There is no need for a decree of the district head or to issue a regional regulation because all individuals are subjects of the law.
