  • TOWARDS RESILIENT URBAN FUTURES: LAND USE CHANGE, FLOOD RISK, AND THE ROLE OF SUSTAINABLE DRAINAGE SYSTEMS IN KUANTAN TENGAH DISTRICT

    Indonesian Journal of Urban and Environmental Technology, 2025
    Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) are considered an innovative approach to urban water management, but their application in Indonesia is still very limited. Aim: This study was aimed to analyze the impact of land use change on runoff coefficient and its implication for socio-economic resilience in post-flood conditions in Kuantan Tengah District, Riau Province. Methodology and results: The research applied a spatial-hydrological and socio-economic approach, integrating drone imagery, GIS-based land classification, runoff coefficient analysis, field drainage assessment, and community surveys. Results revealed that the average runoff coefficient (Cr) increased to 0.57 due to land conversion into impervious surfaces, especially residential and road areas. This condition led to inadequate drainage capacity and contributed to urban flooding. Socio-economic impacts identified include infrastructure damage, income loss in local businesses, health problems, and psychological stress. SWOT analysis highlighted institutional strengths and public awareness, but also emphasized weak ecosystem-based management. Conclusion, significance and impact study: A Sustainable Urban Drainage System (SUDS) model was proposed to overcome these challenges, combining green infrastructure, zoning policy, SOP (standard operating procedures) for drainage maintenance, and community participation. This study provides a novel integrative framework for urban flood risk mitigation based on hydrological and socio-economic indicators and offers policy insights for sustainable spatial planning in flood-prone regions. The solutions offered directly support several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 11 on Sustainable Cities and Communities, SDG 6 on Clean Water and Sanitation, and SDG 13 on Climate Action.

  • ENVIRONMENTAL COMMUNICATION BASED ON LOCAL WISDOM IN FOREST CONSERVATION: A STUDY ON SENTAJO FORBIDDEN FOREST, INDONESIA
    Yasir Yasir, Yohannes Firzal, Chelsy Yesicha, Andri Sulistyani
    Journal of Landscape Ecology Czech Republic, 2022
    This study aims to explore environmental communication based on local wisdom in conserving forests in the Kenegerian Sentajo, Riau Province, Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative approach with an interactive model. Researchers interact and are directly involved in many community activities. The results indicate that environmental communication in forest conservation is based on the local wisdom of the community by using the term Rimbo Larangan. The main communicators and actors are the customary holders, the datuk penghulu and the ninik-mamak (elders) as the highest institutional holders of Kenegerian Sentajo customs. This institution is more powerful than formal government institutions. These traditional stakeholders play an important role in spreading the message to maintain the existence of forbidden forest (Rimbo Larangan). In addition, the community’s desire to maintain customary values has given rise to attitudes and behaviors of people who are aware and care about forest sustainability. This is supported by Islamic values which have encouraged public awareness to have morals or responsibility towards the environment. Some beliefs, storytelling, and myths also reinforce this rule which makes people afraid to break it. The research findings can be used by the community in improving practices of communicating, managing, making rules and redesigning forest for conservation areas that are managed based on indigenous peoples.

    Geojournal of Tourism and Geosites, 2021
    This study aims to explain the higher education institution's role in developing Koto Sentajo as tourism village and to understand the tourism communication model that synergizes with other stakeholders. This study uses a qualitative approach that emphasizes more on depth. The method describing is done by the reality that occurs by interacting directly with the research subject. The results showed that higher education institutions have an essential role in developing a tourism village development model. This communication model is useful for attracting local governments and other stakeholders to establish the Koto Sentajo tourism village. The penta helix communication model involves five main actors, namely the campus, corporate CSR, the community, the mass media, and the Kuantan Singingi regency's local government, to develop the tourism village. The communication and collaboration between stakeholders in empowering the community can accelerate the Koto Sentajo tourism village's realization as a leading cultural heritage destination.
