Ulasan Proyek

Rare adalah lembaga konservasi Internasional yang berkembang pesat dan telah membuat kemajuan dengan mempromosikan praktik penangkapan ikan berkelanjutan yang dilaksanakan di banyak negara, salah satunya Indonesia. Tujuan Rare adalah mengembangkan perikanan skala kecil yang berlokasi di dekat pantai. Sebagian besar sifat perikanan skala kecil di Indonesia adalah lokal dimana nelayan yang merupakan masyarakat pesisir setempat menangkap ikan di perairan dekat pantai dan menjual hasil tangkapan mereka (segar atau olahan) di pasar lokal. Perikanan ini sangat penting bagi ekonomi lokal dan menjadi bagian penting dari tatanan sosial dan budaya nusantara dan penting untuk ketahanan pangan bangsa. Untuk memastikan perikanan pesisir yang berkelanjutan, pengelolaan yang efektif juga harus dilakukan di tingkat lokal. Namun, pelimpahan kewenangan pengelolaan perikanan dari pemerintah pusat ke tingkat kabupaten dan penyerapan kembali ke tingkat provinsi telah meninggalkan celah dalam tata kelola perikanan yang efektif di seluruh masyarakat pesisir.

 

Sejak 2014, Rare di Indonesia telah memfasilitasi kelompok untuk meningkatkan kapasitas masyarakat untuk mengatasi tantangan penangkapan ikan di perairan pesisir dan mempromosikan praktik penangkapan ikan yang bertanggung jawab. Untuk mengembangkan kelompok dan kapasitas masyarakat ini, kami telah merancang metode yang memungkinkan pengumpulan data perikanan, pengembangan Kelompok Pengelolaan Akses Area Perikanan (PAAP), penetapan tujuan perikanan, pengembangan rencana pengelolaan, serta proses implementasi PAAP & KLA (Kawasan Larang Ambil).

 

Inti dari model PAAP adalah sistem Territorial Use Rights in Fisheries – Reserve atau "TURF-R" yang telah terbukti efektif dengan menggabungkan daerah penangkapan ikan dengan kawasan larang ambil, untuk melindungi habitat penting dimana cadangan ikan dapat dipulihkan kembali. Saat populasi ikan pulih di KLA ini, efek limpahan ikan dapat meningkatkan tangkapan di daerah tangkapan ikan yang lokasinya berdekatan.

 

Untuk melengkapi program dari sisi sosio-ekologi, pemahaman tentang masalah ekonomi yang dihadapi oleh perikanan skala kecil menjadi dasar Rare untuk mengembangkan strategi komprehensif untuk mencapai perikanan berkelanjutan. Kami memahami bahwa nelayan, khususnya di Sulawesi Utara, belum sepenuhnya memahami tentang pengelolaan keuangan rumah tangga. Akibatnya, para nelayan dan keluarganya ini, seringkali gagal mempertahankan kestabilan keuangan untuk menunjang hidup mereka selama masa sulit. Inklusi keuangan membantu nelayan untuk mengelola pendapatan musiman dari penangkapan ikan menjadi pendapatan rumah tangga yang stabil dan berkelanjutan. Membangun inklusi keuangan di tingkat rumah tangga memungkinkan keluarga nelayan memiliki kesempatan untuk meningkatkan pendapatan mereka melalui berbagai tindakan (misalnya menambah nilai ikan hasil tangkapan). Perbaikan infrastruktur dan cara kerja di rantai nilai perikanan target juga dapat mengurangi inefisiensi, yang dapat memberikan nilai dan harga yang lebih adil bagi nelayan untuk produk mereka.

 

Untuk menciptakan gerakan di skala nasional yang mendorong perubahan dalam konservasi laut dan pengelolaan perikanan, Rare Indonesia perlu mengubah pendekatannya. UU No 23/2014 tentang Pemerintah Daerah mencabut kewenangan pemerintah kabupaten dan mengembalikan kewenangan tersebut kepada pemerintah provinsi. Pergeseran kekuatan ini mendorong Rare untuk bekerja lebih strategis, jadi misalnya, daripada bekerja secara sporadis di berbagai lokasi di banyak provinsi, Rare memilih berfokus pada beberapa provinsi terpilih. Pendekatan inovatif Rare termasuk mengalokasikan lokasi PAAP & KLA potensial di bawah rezim pengelolaan wilayah laut yang ada untuk mendukung pengakuan hukum. Pendekatan lainnya adalah mengalihkan strategi pengembangan kapasitas dari fokus perorangan ke kelompok secara kolektif. Hal ini mengharuskan Rare membuat sistem insentif dan model pelatihan yang lebih praktis namun bermanfaat. Selain itu, Rare memasukkan inisiatif inklusi keuangan untuk mendapatkan dukungan kolektif terhadap PAAP & KLA melalui Kelompok Simpan Pinjam (KSP) PAAP. Terakhir, Rare mendukung integrasi gender dalam PAAP agar semua pelaku perikanan skala kecil berpartisipasi sehingga kelangsungan PAAP &KLA dapat terjaga dan inisiatif perubahan perilaku dalam jangka panjang dapat tercipta.

INOVASI 3 - Field Researcher of Boys Engagement in Learning

(Consultant, 6 months contract up to 60 days)

Background of The Project:
Australia is a long-term supporter of the Indonesian basic education sector, with continuous investments supporting education quality improvements for the past two decades, including through the INOVASI program (Phase 1 2016-2020; Phase 2 2020-2023) that focused on supporting acquisition of literacy and numeracy foundational skills in early grades classrooms; exploring local problems and solutions; and generating evidence to inform government policy development and practices.

Phase 3 will engage with priority issues of Australia's development policy: gender equality, effective inclusion of children with a disability, responses to the climate change challenge in education. One of the key issues INOVASI is addressing is boys' engagement in learning.
Globally, girls outperform boys in reading and math (OECD 2021). INOVASI's Learning Gap study reveals that boys present, on average, the greater gender disadvantage. The proportion of male students (27%) at the lowest level of proficiency in literacy was greater than the proportion of female students (19%). The World Bank's study on learning-adjusted years of schooling also showed that girls outperformed boys, with girls attaining 8.1 years compared with 7.8 years for boys, indicating a female advantage in learning in Indonesia. A World Bank survey in 2018 found that boys are more likely to miss school than girls, with 55% of boys reporting missing school at least one day a month, compared with 44% of girls. In terms of repeating academic years, the repetition rates at the primary level are higher for boys. In 2018, nearly 1.7% of boys repeated grades in primary school, compared with 0.9 percent of girls (World Bank 2020). Data from the study show that boys' lower grades and higher absenteeism rates are correlated with lower socio-emotional skills, demotivating mindsets, and negative perception of classroom environments (World Bank 2018). As with girls, boys too are affected by gender norms. Boys conforming to social norms about masculinity and male behavior can lead to their disengagement from school. INOVASI's Phase 2 baseline data showed there was a tendency for teachers to discipline and punish boys more than girls.
As part of the efforts to address this issue, INOVASI will conduct research to explore the causes of the disparity in learning outcomes between boys and girls, particularly related to literacy and numeracy, in West Java and West Nusa Tenggara.

INOVASI 3 - Child Protection Consultant

(Consultant, 10 months contract up to 30 days)

Background of The Project:
Indonesia's Vision 2045 sets the goal for Indonesia to transition from a resource-based economy towards an advanced service, technology, and knowledge-based economy by the centenary of its independence (2045). The 2025-2045 National Long Term Development Plan emphasises the urgency of Indonesia's human resource development to fully realise 2045 goals.
Faced however with persistent low student performance that is emblematic of a learning crisis, significant improvement in student learning will be required to reach Indonesia's 2045 goals. Government of Indonesia (GoI) has started an ambitious program of education reforms. Successive education ministers have set out to modernise the education system through reforming the national curriculum and teaching and assessment approaches, to produce citizens with strong foundational skills, open minds, and inclusive values.
Australia is a long-term supporter of the Indonesian basic education sector, with continuous investments supporting education quality improvements for the past two decades, including through the INOVASI program (Phase 1 2016-2020; Phase 2 2020-2023) that focused on supporting acquisition of literacy and numeracy foundational skills in early grades classrooms; exploring local problems and solutions; and generating evidence to inform government policy development and practices.
This third phase of INOVASI (2024-2027) builds upon the existing program's approach and lessons learned and takes the focus on the development of foundational skills through to the end of the primary grades. Phase 3 will engage with priority issues of Australia's development policy: gender equality, effective inclusion of children with a disability, responses to the climate change challenge in education. It will focus on the challenge of policy implementation and the gaps that exist between national policies and practices at district and school levels and use the well attested-success of INOVASI's local problem-based approach to continuously support policy development for effective fit between policy and implementation context.
INOVASI Phase 3 is implemented in 25 districts and cities across Indonesia, in the provinces of West Nusa Tenggara, East Nusa Tenggara, North Kalimantan, East Java, West Java, and Maluku. The program also works in Ibu Kota Nusantara (IKN)
