Enhancing Economic Benefits from Forest Preservation In Papua, Indonesia: A Review

Abstract

This study aims to demonstrate the importance of the Social Enterprise Model Canvas (SEMC) as an alternative to addressing social and ecological system challenges that describe important aspects of obtaining economic benefits from forest conservation in remote areas such as Papua. The method is carried out through Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) and qualitative content analysis process of social services implemented in Indonesia and formulated into the required SEMC using 216 documents sourced from the Scopus Core Collection database, which consists of three types of documents: articles, reviews, and book reviews. The results are: First, content analysis of environmental service payment business models in Indonesia provides insight for the government and environmental service providers. Second, the benefits scheme as part of SEMC is an important component in determining successful outcomes. Third, in special regions such as Papua which have special autonomy status, where traditional community regulations play an important role, SEMC must cover aspects of government and regional regulations. The implications of this research can be used as recommendations in determining policies related to payment for forest environmental services.
