This study aims to determine the correlation between local knowledge and values and the effectiveness of community-based waste management.. This study uses quantitative and qualitative approaches. The sampling points were divided into four clusters representing the four sides of the island by interviewing 97 respondents. Quantitative data were analyzed using correlation analysis, while qualitative data were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that local knowledge and values significantly affected the effectiveness of waste management, which was visualized with heatmaps. The strength of the color shows visualization; the redder, the more substantial and more positive the value, and the color’s intensity reflects the correlation’s magnitude. The strongest correlation analysis of knowledge factors on effectiveness is shown by the continuity variable with a value of 0.50, and the weakest correlation is community involvement with a value of -0.17. Then, the strongest correlation between local values and management effectiveness is shown by the sustainability value variable and general knowledge value with a value of 0.76, while the cultural practice value and the importance of values with a value of 0.55 show the weakest correlation. The research findings conclude that community-based waste management intervention strategies, especially in small island areas, can make good practices of traditional knowledge sustainability values and local values of local communities the main consideration so that waste management can be more effective.

The sustainability of coastal community livelihood assets is very relevant to efforts to develop the blue economy. This research aims to determine the sustainability of fishing household livelihood assets on the coast of marine conservation areas. The research locations are in three coastal villages in the marine conservation area of the eastern region of Bintan Island, Riau Island Province of Indonesia. This research uses a survey method with a quantitative descriptive approach. The research results show that, in general, the development of marine conservation areas in the eastern region has not had a significant impact on increasing the sustainability of the livelihood assets of the surrounding community. Of the five assets measured, only physical assets showed the best level of sustainability, namely 83%. Meanwhile, the other four assets indicate a low level of sustainability, namely human resource assets (42%), social assets (42%), financial assets (23%) and natural assets (29%). The low level of sustainability of the four livelihood assets has implications for increasing pressure on natural resources and conflicts of interest in conservation areas, as well as increasing community vulnerability to climate change. It is necessary to study management models that can increase the sustainability of community livelihood assets.

This study analyzes how social networks can connect and interact to strengthen food accessibility for poor households on Mapur Island, one of the small and outermost islands in Indonesia. Data collection used interviews with eighteen recipient households of the Family Hope Program (PKH) and Focus Group Discussions with eighteen key informants. Data were analyzed using R analysis and social network analysis. This study found that the level of access to food for PKH households and their social networks was very low and short. His dependence on rice assistance from the government and being in debt to ‘Patron’ became very strong. Of all identified communities, the same pattern was found, and a strong mutual relationship was with ‘Patron.’ The role of ‘Patron’ in the food access network is an intermediary and central role that connects many entities and activities to meet community needs. The interaction between the Regional Logistics Agency stopped at the liaison between the ‘Patron’ and the village government that distributed the assistance. The village food access network is very dependent on the network owned by ‘Patron.’ Government intervention through policies and strengthening food institutions can play a key role in helping to facilitate access to food needs on the island.

Abstract This study aims to explore social networks and interactions between networks in strengthening food stability in maritime villages in coastal areas. The geographical condition of the region has become one of the triggers for food instability and food security problems in coastal areas. This study uses the method of Social Network Analysis (SNA). Data processing uses R to visualize the role of stakeholder centrality. The analysis used is the analysis of baseline network, degree, and betweenness centrality. The value of modularity is an indicator of increasing or decreasing community networks. The number of nodes and links identifies the actors in the network and the interactions between actors. The results showed that social networks have an essential role in food stability. The private sector is a key actor in food stability in maritime villages. Is indicated by the modularity value of 0.43 (>0), which connects to 30 social network nodes and 62 links to food stability in maritime villages in the coastal area of Bintan Regency.

Microplastic research is currently an exciting trend along with global environmental problems. The purpose of this study is to review the development of microplastic research in ASEAN. The researc uses a systematic review method by searching for the keyword “microplastic” and the name of the ASEAN country on the Google Scholar website, Science Direct, and other research paper provider websites. Papers reviewed in 2018 to August 2021 period were then classified based on the components analyzed. The results showed that based on the research location category, the majority of microplastic research was carried out in Vietnam (12/50 articles). The category of research object focused on marine organisms more than terrestrial organisms, the category of microplastic concentration varied because the microplastic sampling method was not standardized, the category of microplastic form dominated by the form of fiber; commonly found in coastal areas. The socio-economic category is not much related to the circular economy. To conclude, microplastic research still has opportunities, especially from a socio-economic perspective.

The purpose of this study was to determine the quality of the aquatic environment and the content of heavy metals, sediment, fish, and shellfish around the bauxite mining area. The main question is whether bauxite mining activities affect the quality of the surrounding waters. Further research needs to be carried out at the exact location during non-active mining activities as a comparison. Using the Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) method, a field survey and heavy metal analysis are conducted. The results showed that the physicochemical properties of the water were categorized as polluted and unfit for fish farming. Five parameters, Cadmium (Cd), Timbal (Pb), Aluminum (Al), Nickel (Ni), and DO (dissolved oxygen), do not meet the quality standards of fish culture water and metal content in fish and shellfish bodies

The number of fishing households headed by women continues to show improvement in the last decade. In Riau Islands Province Indonesia, showed more than 80 % are coastal villages with most of the poor people, and more than 50 % of the poor are women who are vulnerable social economic will be head of household. This study focuses on five dimensions of livelihood assets to find the status of sustainability. The questionnaire survey addressed to 29 fishermen households headed by women from 300 fishermen households in the Malangrapat village. The results of this study highlight how the dimensions of personal leadership assets showed the main actors to influence the sustainable livelihoods in fishing households headed by women. Strengths of personal and leadership assets of women in the household could be an important factor to consider in agricultural development and fight against poverty in the rural areas, because by having good personal leadership they have a strong motivate to get out of poverty through women. This showed by the index of the personal and leadership assets dimensions of sustainable enough (60.34 and 71.93), while the other dimension does not show sustainability; social assets (26.87), human resources assets (27.59), financial assets (31.86), and physical assets (36.38).
