Area Studies I
Participatory Action Research/Rural Development in the Watershed Area

Research Interests

Since 1996 I have been working on participatory action researches in South Sulawesi. I experienced the gaps between researchers and local community, between university and practitioners and between local-needs and government interventions in the poverty reduction programs and projects. Numerous of poverty reduction programs have been conducted by governments and international aids failed to reduce the poverty rate in Indonesia. The local communities have become more and more dependent on outsiders interventions.
　I have developed and conducted a number of community empowerment programs which have lead me to cultivate interests in the application of Participatory Approaches and projects emphasizing more on the empowerment of community in managing their local resources in the watershed area. Characteristics of areas and local people play important roles in the achievement of the project.
　I plan to compile all the experiences and studies on community development and watershed management including community based disaster management into a book. I believe this fellowship at CSEAS provides me the opportunity to contribute a strategy for rural development in Indonesia and Sulawesi in particular.
