Regional Government

YKAN implements regional programs by collaborating with government bodies at the provincial, district, and village levels. YKAN also partners with various government agencies, including the Fisheries and Marine Agency, the Forestry Department, the Natural Resources Conservation Agency, and local National Park authorities. These partnerships provide technical support, including research and training, policy and regulatory assistance, and promotion of collaborative management systems.

 

Menghadapi tantangan pelestarian lingkungan dewasa ini, semakin banyak organisasi yang fokus pengembangan strategi dalam upaya membatasi dampak terhadap lingkungan, mendorong agar alam dapat memberikan keuntungan, dan melibatkan sumber daya manusia secara luas untuk berhasil membuat perubahan.

YKAN percaya bahwa peran aktif sektor swasta, akademisi, lembaga penelitian, organisasi masyarakat sipil, mayarakat adat, serta setiap individu Indonesia merupakan salah satu kunci utama keberhasilan pencapaian tujuan-tujuan konservasi.

Oleh karena itu, YKAN membuka pintu kemitraan dengan berbagai pihak yang memiliki kesamaan visi dan misi dalam melestarikan alam di Indonesia, serta mengajak secara langsung untuk berpartisipasi dalam upaya konservasi yang dilaksanakan di berbagai daerah di Indonesia.

YKAN is a science-based environmental organisation. We believe that science and technology play an important role in the planning and implementation of nature conservation programmes. Collaborating with universities and research institutions is one of the key pillars of the partnerships established by YKAN.

The research conducted through these partnerships can be used to promote strategic policies for sustainable and long-term natural resource management. More broadly, we also publish the results of these studies and scientific research through seminars, on the YKAN website, and in national and international journals.
