Community Driven Development In Traditional Communities In Papua
Journal Title: Journal of Regional and City Planning - Year 2017, Vol 28, Issue 1
Abstract
Community-Driven Development is a social planning concept aimed at changing the behaviour and attitude of marginalized communities in other to empower them. This means with their own ability they can collectively solve social and economic problems in their environment. By using various participatory approaches, that are considered most suitable in the postmodern planning era, this development concept is expected to increase the welfare of underprivileged communities. This concept is also applied in the development of traditional communities, especially for customary tradition communities, but has not yet had a significant impact. This study uses existing literature to show the general results of community-driven development in traditional communities, especially traditional communities in Papua. Many development programmes were run by the government using participatory approaches. The study shows that the desired social change is not yet observed for traditional communities in Papua, who have obtained community-driven development programmes for so many years. These communities still have the lowest level of welfare in Indonesia. The social learning that was expected to happen in any community-driven development program with participatory approaches happens very slowly in Papua.
