A popular article has been published: “Public Policy for Realizing Social Justice”
The use of science for policy can be a source of injustice. So, according to the context, “scientific evidence” is not the only source of “truth”. In their book Local Knowledge Matters: Power, Context and Policy Making in Indonesia, Nugroho et al. (2018) mention several findings that are relevant to this statement.
Knowledge also will not run out because it is used. It increases as it continues to be used. The problem is that knowledge scarcity can be intentionally created through forced circumstances. Namely conditions without social justice <HK>

General Lecture from the National Programe Management Unit of Forest and Climate Change Program – Financial Cooperation (FORCLIME FC)
Students from the Department of Forest Management (DMNH), Faculty of Forestry and Environment IPB University studied forestry investment from Forclime FC (Forest and Climate Change Program – Financial Cooperation) in the General Lecture on Analysis of Forestry Investments, (18/2). Forclime FC is a long-term cooperation program between the governments of Germany and Indonesia.
According to the Head of the Department of Forest Management, Dr. Muhdin, forestry investment activities are now increasingly challenging. So DMNH held the Analysis of Forestry Investments Course (MK. AIK) as an elective course to give students the opportunity to deepen their knowledge related to forestry investment.
To create a collaborative and participatory class, in addition to using conventional teaching methods and case studies, the MK. AIK applies the Problem Based-Learning (PBL) method, where students study together in groups to find solutions to the real problem in the world (real-world problems) and Project Based-Learning (PjBL). Students learn through real problems in the real world that are raised into scenarios and learning activities, either by applying case-solving methods or team-based projects.
“For this reason, we invite forestry practitioners to share lessons related to forestry investment activities. Forclime FC has activities and experience in efforts to reduce greenhouse gases through sustainable forest management and improving the economic welfare of communities around the forest. So that it can be used as material and discussion, as well as broaden the choice of topics that can be taken by student groups in working on PBL/PjBL-based assignments,” he added.
Resource persons included the Head of the Planning Bureau of the Ministry of Environment and Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia as the Executing Agency Program, Dr. Ayu Dewi Utari, and the Forclime FC team represented by Ir Basoeki Karyaatmadja, MSc as Team Leader Progam and Drs IGNN Sutedja, MM as District Team Leader Kapuas Hulu.
On this occasion, Ir Basoeki conveyed the progress of Forclime-FC’s main activities about the results, lessons learned, experiences program in the context of reducing emissions, improving community welfare, and improving sustainable forest management, particularly related to forestry investment activities in Kapuas Hulu.
“Improving community welfare is important in supporting other main activities. With the emergence of a sense of mutual need between the community and the forest, the forest will be maintained and sustainable,” he said.
Several programs to improve community welfare are carried out regularly by involving the local community. Such as community capacity building, institutional strengthening, development of Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs), and social forestry. The program continues to be developed because it has proven to have a positive impact on the community both from an economic and social perspective, thereby reducing the risk of forest destruction by the community.
