实施保护政策可能会产生负面影响,并加剧现有的差异,但对泥炭地社区这些风险的研究很少。本章确定了泥炭地保护政策对当地社区的公平影响,并提出了适当的政策方向。该研究基于实地工作和对印度尼西亚廖内省一个多民族村庄随机选择的63户家庭(占家庭总数的22%)的调查,该村庄既有泥炭地,也有非泥炭地。分析表明,当地消防组织Masyarakat Peduli Api (MPA)的组成和努力并不包括所有村民,这表明只有特定的村民努力参与泥炭地保护活动。生计改善计划的参与也很有限,拥有非泥炭地的高收入家庭受益最大,从而有可能加剧现有的经济差距。我们迫切需要制定政策和计划,在考虑泥炭社区和火灾的多样性的同时,减轻和纠正这些差异。
Implementation of conservation policies can result in negative impacts and exacerbate existing disparities, yet studies of these risks in peatland communities are minimal. This chapter identifies the equity implications of peatland conservation policies on local communities and suggests appropriate policy directions. The study is based on field work and a survey of 63 randomly selected households (22% of total households) in a multi-ethnic village of Riau Province, Indonesia that has both peatland and non-peatland. Analysis reveals that the make-up and efforts of the local firefighting group, the Masyarakat Peduli Api (MPA), do not include all villagers, suggesting that only specific villagers make an effort to participate in peatland conservation activity. Participation in Livelihood Improvement Programs is also limited, with high-earning households that own non-peatland benefiting the most, thus threatening to accelerate existing economic disparities. There is a strong need for policies and programs that mitigate and correct these disparities while taking into account the diverse nature of peat communities and fires.
