These cadre of digital volunteers assist with several social media missions including: general monitoring, rumor identification and management, situation status visualization and so much more.

��

ABSTRACT : Regulation of Indigenous Forests which are part of Social Forestry based on applicable laws and regulations as stipulated in the Regulation of the Minister of Environment and Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia Number 9 of 2021 Concerning Social Forestry Management. Obstacles in the management of customary forests which that have been part of social forestry so far in the Province Riau, among others: First, there is no customary forest legality. Second, in the field, there is still a ninik mamak dualism in the village so that forest management is sometimes misplaced. Third, increasing the capacity of human resources to assist indigenous peoples in managing customary forests. Fourth, the budget, relatively limited program funding constraints. Fifth, in addition to assistance and financing, in the future social forestry schemes including customary forest management need to be simplified. To overcome the above obstacles, several things need to be done, including: first, availability of an adequate budget provided by the government. Second, Simplifyingy licensing and administration processand simplified customary forest schemes so that they can be easily understood. Third, increasing the capacity of human resources for community assistance in managing social forestry. Therefore there is a need for a Model in Participatory Customary Forest Management by emphasizing management based on the active participation of indigenous peoples in customary forest management.

Investigating how the customary, freehold, and leasehold land tenure systems ...AJHSSR Journal

��

ABSTRACT : This study aimed to investigate how customary, freehold, and leasehold land tenure systems in Ngora District, Uganda, can be reformed to enhance agricultural productivity, with a focus on identifying effective strategies and potential reforms. By examining the three prevalent land ownership systems, this research provides critical insights into policy and practice improvements that could benefit the agricultural sector, local communities, and the broader economy. The study was conducted in a district characterized by overlapping and unclear land tenure systems, which have led to frequent disputes and hindered the adoption of modern farming practices. A mixed-methods research design was employed, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis, to thoroughly assess the effects of these land tenure systems on agricultural productivity. Advanced coding techniques, statistical methods, and analytical tools were used to systematically analyze the data, revealing patterns, themes, and relationships between the variables. The study achieved a high response rate, with 92% participation in in-depth interviews and 99.3% in the quantitative component, with a higher representation of male respondents (71% in the expert group, 63% in the larger sample). The findings underscore the importance of secure and well-regulated land tenure systems in promoting agricultural productivity and addressing poverty and food insecurity in Ngora District. To improve agricultural outcomes, the study recommends the adoption of sustainable farming practices and crop diversification, alongside collaborative efforts by central and local governments to secure and protect land rights under all three tenure systems. KEYWORDS : Customary, Freehold, and Leasehold Land Tenure Systems
