I. Background
A. PNPM-Green: It is a pilot-project which is designed in part to mainstream natural resource management and renewable energy issues within the core operations of the national PNPM-Rural program. On Sulawesi Island (North Sulawesi, South Sulawesi, West Sulawesi, and Southeast Sulawesi), PNPM-Green has been active since 2008, and in 2010, the pilot program expanded into four provinces on Sumatra Island (Aceh, North Sumatra, West Sumatra and Bengkulu). A key component of PNPM-Green to which approximately USD 5.3 million has been allocated is the technical assistance provided by Indonesian and international civil society organizations (CSO). The CSO partners are responsible for delivering environmental awareness raising and training activities to the pilots community beneficiaries and local government officials to assist in the design and implementation of viable green sub-projects. These sub-projects are financed through the PNPM-Green block grants and are focused in improved NRM practices, environmental conservation, environmentally-sound income generating activities, and RE. As PNPMGreen is currently designed, there is CSO coverage in the eight target provinces. B. Operation Wallacea Trust (OWT): It is a CSO has Grant Agreement (TF 090977) with the World Bank to conduct environmental awareness and training to local community, actors and stakeholders in the Pilot PNPM-Green in Buton, Muna and Kolaka Districts, South Sulawesi Province (October 2007 to date). On March 14, 2012, we received additional grant on the existing TF 090977 to extent our facilitation areas to cover Maros, Wajo and Tana Toraja Districts. Considering several pilot districts in Sumatra had not yet received CSO supports, on April 24, 2012, we signed another GA (TF 011930) to cover Padang Pariaman and Agam Districts (West Sumatra) and Lebong District (Bengkulu Province). TF 090977 will be ended on 31 October 2012, while TF 011930 is planned to end on 31 December 2012. C. OWT intervention and approach: Since 2008, our interventions have been focused at village and sub-district level, in the form of environmental awareness and training, technical assistance and facilitation to ensure the program and its associated block-grant will enable to raise the quality of beneficiaries livelihoods. Community based environmental program will only be sustainable if they enable to open new opportunities to local community livelihoods. Natural resource management (NRM) and renewable energy (RE) initiatives within PNPMGreen will only be sustainable if they can enhance income generating activity (IGA) or reduce poor household expenditure. Green block-grant only acts as a starter or stimulant, whether those end-up to environment and livelihoods improvement or not will heavily depend on the quality of community facilitation. Taking this in mind, the success of PNPMGreen will require extra ordinary facilitation efforts at grass-root level.

II. Executive Summary

0.1. Facilitated PNPM-Green in Sumatra: Following up the Banks supervision mission in December 2011 and responding to a letter sent by GOI (Directorate General of Village and Community Empowerment/PMD) addressed to the Bank regarding the need to have additional support (awareness raising and capacity building) in South Sulawesi and three districts in Sumatra (Agam, Padang Pariaman and Lebong), OWT was requested by the Bank to involve for the technical assistance. In response to the request, for the case of Sumatra, on 13 January 2012, we submitted technical proposal entitled: Proposed CSO Services to Support Green-PNPM in Agam and Pariaman Districts (West Sumatera Province) and Lebong District (Bengkulu Province). After having some revisions, the
4

proposal was finally accepted; a new Grant Agreement (GA) developed and signed on April 20, 2012 (TF 011930; USD 265,000). Under TF-011930, since May 2012, we have provided full supports in three districts until 31 December 2012. 0.2. OWT facilitation sites in Sumatra to support PNPM-Green (TF-011930): West Sumatra Province: Agam and Padang Pariaman Districts, which are composed of 6 subdistricts (kecamatan). Agam District: Palembayan, Palupuh, and Malalak; Padang Pariaman District: Enam Lingkung, VII Koto Sungai Sarik, and Batang Gasan. Bengkulu Province: Lebong District, which is composed of 3 sub-district, Padang Bano, Lebong Utara, and Lebong Atas. 0.3. Nagari, a smallest government unit in West Sumatra Province: Nagari is a customary defined administrative area boundary inherited by Minangkabau1 geo-political structure (Langgam). Nagari is equal to desa (village), but the administrative area is normally larger than desa. The area size and population of one nagari is equal to 2-5 villages (big village). The New Order government had nationalized indigenous and diverse village governance systems which had been in existence before 1945; through Law No. 5/1979, the nagari system was changed into desa. With reference to Law No. 22/1999, issued during reformation era, West Sumatra Province enacted Law No 9/2000 which returned (from desa during the New Order) into indigenous Nagari governance system. One Nagari is composed of 5 -10 Jorong or Korong (sub-village); Agam District use Jorong for subNagari, while Padang Pariaman District use Korong. 0.4. Physiographic and accessibility of the pilot districts: (a) Padang Pariaman District is located on the lower foot slope of Bukit Barisan mountain ranges. The landscape is dominated by flat and gentle slopes area; soil is fertile while the average annual rainfall is 3,000 mm. The pilot sub-districts have an excellent accessibility and closed to each other. It is only about 1 hour car drive from the Airport. Some areas have high Tsunami hazards; the major land-use is paddy field (sawah) and agroforestry; (b) Agam District covers the upper and middle slope of Bukit Barisan Mountain ranges. The landscape is dominated by gentle to steep slopes area; soil is fertile while annual rainfall is 4,000 mm. The District has beautiful scenery and comfortable weather conditions. Water resources are abundant with low turbidity (suspended-load) due to the stable substrate. Lake Maninjau, one of the largest lakes in West-Sumatra, is located in the District. The pilot subdistricts have a good accessibility, although the pilot sub-district is far to each other. It is about 1-3 hours car drive from Bukittinggi or Lubuk Basung (Capital of Agam District). Some areas have high landslide hazards; the major land-use is paddy field (sawah) and agroforestry; (c) Lebong District covers the upper and middle slope of Bukit Barisan Mountain ranges. The landscape is dominated by steep slopes area; soil is fertile while annual rainfall is 3,500 mm. The pilot sub-districts have difficult accessibility. Some areas have only been accessible using four-wheel drive car. It is about 5-6 hours car drive from Province capital/Bengkulen. Some areas have high landslide hazards; the major land-use is agroforestry and forestry; about 60% of the area is state forest. 0.5. OWTs prior and on-going facilitation activities in Sumatra to support PNPMGreen: With Danida grant, Capacity Building on Catchment Areas Management and
1

The dominant ethnic group in West-Sumatra Province

Conservation to Sustain MHP schemes (1.MRD.16-3), since March 2011, OWT has been working in Palembayan, Malalak and Palupuh Sub-Districts (Agam District). The activities apart from aligned with PNPM-Green, such as facilitated the establishment of village nursery, tree planting, village regulation etc. In response to the request of PNPM-Green actors and facilitators, we also conducted the following activities: 2010: Facilitated 11 units PNPM-Green biogas installations sub-projects in Nagari Salareh Aia as well as its maintenance work. 2011: Facilitated 21 units PNPM-Green biogas installation sub-projects in Jorong Sungai Taleh, Nagari Baringin, Palembayan Sub-district (14 units) and Jorong Salimpaung, Nagari Malalak Utara of Malalak Sub-district (7 units). The project will be ended on 31 October 2012. 0.6. The stage of PNPM-Green Cycle in West Sumatra Province: 2011: MDST (project hand-over to village government) stage which supposed has been occurred during early 2011, up till June 2012 has not yet been reached either in Agam or Padang Pariaman. The underlined reasons, the third block-grant disbursement of 2011 cycle (20% out of total fund) was carried over to 2012. The third disbursement has not been disbursed until mid July 2012. 2012: In contrast with the slow progress and late completion of 2011 cycle, 2012 cycle run quite fast. MAD III and MD Information have been conducted during early June 2012 while SPC have been issued during the end of June 2012. Project implementations have started since the end of July 2012. Such situations happened in all sub-districts in Agam and Padang Pariaman Districts. To speed up the process and avoid 2011 bad experience, the first fund disbursement is used to procure all necessary raw materials. 0.7. The stage of PNPM-Green Cycle in Bengkulu Province: 2011: MDSTs have been conducted during February 2012 in all villages in Lebong Utara and Lebong Atas sub-districts, while for Padang Bano Sub-district; there are two subprojects (tree nursery and organic fertilizer making) which have not yet reached MDST. The underlined reason is political turmoil due to unsmooth succession of village head. 2012: Similar with West Sumatra situation, the first term of fund disbursement (40% out of total grant) has been disbursed by the end of July 2012. 0.8. Project start-up in West Sumatra and Bengkulu Provinces: (a) Socialization OWT roles and workplan at province level during PNPM-Green evaluation workshop in Bengkulu (8 May) and Bukittinggi (10 May); (b) Facilitated coordination meeting involving key actors of PNPM-Green in Bengkulu (9 May), Agam (10 May), Padang Pariaman (11 May) to understand problems and required CSO technical and facilitation supports; (c) Recruitment of District Coordinators (11 May); (d) Pre-service training of District Coordinators (Korkab) in Bogor (18-20 May); (e) Each newly recruited Korkab conducted (i) orientation on each pilot sub-district; (ii) mapping specific environmental problems and potential natural resources on each sub-district; (iii) identified sub-district champions suitable to be recruited as Sub-district cadres (Korcam); (e) recruitment of Sub-district cadres. 0.9. Established environmental awareness cars (My Darling) in West Sumatra and Bengkulu Provinces: Understanding the poor awareness of local community at grass root
6

level either on environmental issues or PNPM-Green, since mid May 2012, in addition of CIMO (WCS awareness cars), we established two My Darling cars (Masyarakat Sadar Lingkungan/community aware environmental issues). One car (Kijang Innova) is for West Sumatra (two districts, see Figure 5) and another (Hi-Line) is for Bengkulu (one district). 10. Our principle facilitations in both provinces during June 2012: (a) together with Green-Facilitators (FKL, Astal and SPL) facilitated PNPM cycle to ensure that the process follow the spirits of community driven development; (b) provided awareness rising, training and field technical assistances to PNPM key actors and stakeholders; (c) identified the potential sites to establish demonstration pilots (demo-plot) to inspire local community on possible site-specific sustainable activities related to NRM, IGA and RE; (d) prepared exitstrategy on the maintenance and development of PNPM-Green investment; (i) strengthened community institution (Village Regulation/Perdes); (ii) enhanced sense of ownership of key development agents, i.e. extension workers, key village government/KVG and key village champions/KVC etc. at village and (sub) district level; (iii) enhanced sense of government ownership on PNPM-Green investment. 11. Our strategy to enhance coordination among key actors in West-Sumatra Province: Considering: (a) we need to develop a good coordination with the existing CSO which had been previously active the province (WCS); (b) late completion of 2011 PNPM-Green in West Sumatra; (c) the strong spirits of Province PJO (Pak Zukirwan Chan) to complete 2011 and 2012 in time. We have been committed to: (a) attend weekly coordination meeting at province level together with PJO Province, SPL and WCS representative; (b) attend monthly coordination meeting at province level together with all PNPM-Green key actors; (c) facilitated monthly coordination meeting at district level involving CSO (including WCS representatives) and consultants. 12. Our strategy to enhance coordination among key actors in Bengkulu Province: (a) To harmonize relationships and sharpen synergetic actions among consultants and OWT, we share district coordination office in Lebong District; (b) facilitated monthly coordination meeting at district level involving CSO (including WCS representatives) and consultants; (c) attend monthly coordination meeting at province level together with all PNPM-Green key actors. 13. Specific facilitations in Agam and Padang Pariaman District, West Sumatra Province: (a) Conducted intensive facilitation on tree plantation and village nursery maintenance; (b) Facilitated the formulation of NRM Village Regulations, including review of RPJM Desa; (c) Supported the Fourth PNPM Rural Jambore Exhibition held in Pasaman District; (d) Facilitated sub-project budget making process, especially for biogas installation, tree planting and nursery development; (e) Distributed and installed environmental awareness materials (posters, books, magazines, DVDs); (f) Training for UPK, FKL and PL on strategy to speed up 2011 and 2012 project completion; (g) Training for TPK, KPMD and maintenance team on every sub-district level; (h) Provided technical assistances on 2011 biogas sub-projects in Malalak sub-district (Agam District) and conduct sites survey on 2012 biogas installation sub-projects in Batang Gasan, VII Koto, and Enam Lingkung subdistricts (Padang Pariaman District). 14.

The detail list of activities during the reporting period and its link to Performance Indicators is presented in Appendix 1 of the report, while revised Workplan for June-December 2012 is presented on Appendix 2. Photo galleries are given in Appendix 3, while the Indonesian version of the Executive Summary is presented in Appendix 4. Some new developments, approaches and important facilitations during the reporting period are highlighted below: Performance Indicator 1: Well-trained PNPM-Green facilitators and other local PNPM stakeholders, who can ignite and facilitate green projects within PNPM, not limited to those within PNPM-Green Target Locations. 1.1. Supported DANIDA training on NRM in Sumatra: the publication of NRM manual, booklets and fly-over2 was directly followed with training implementation on NRM for FKL and Setrawan (civil servant facilitators) in two regions in Medan (25-29 June) and Bukittinggi (2-6 July) involving participants of three provinces in Sumatra (Aceh, North Sumatra and West Sumatra). The similar up-coming training will be conducted on the third week of September in Bengkulu and involved participants from the province. We provided full supports on in-door training implementation ((see Figure 7) and delivered 4 subjects, i.e. (a) Introduction of Natural Resource Management; (b) Catchment Area Management; (c) Selection of tree crop species; (d) Tree planting. We also facilitated the preparation and implementation of out-door practical exercise in Padang Pariaman District (See Figure 6). 1.2. Facilitated Field-work of Danida NRM Training in Padang Pariaman District: We organized one day field work of NRM training participants which was associated with the visit of Mr. Tim Mac Hansen (Danida Counselor for trade and development) to PNPMGreen smart practices in Sumatra. We facilitated the second day of the field visit of Mr. Tim Mac Hansen and organized together (at the same time and sites) with NRM participant fieldwork. The field-work was conducted on Wednesday, 4 July 2012 from 8.00 16.00. The field-work sites held at Korong (sub-village) Sungai Ibur 1 and Korong Bulu Kasok, Nagari Sungai Sarik, VII Koto Sub-district. The practical exercises during the field work cover the following subjects: (a) Village nursery (self initiated by local community); (b) Technique of tree planting on steep land; (c) Evaluation of tree planting survival (Korong Sungai Ibur); (c) agroforestry; (d) Technique of tree planting on gentle slope (PNPM-Green block grant 2010); (e) the making of organic fertilizer (Korong Bulu Kasok). All practical exercise was conducted on PNPM-Green project sites, in such a way that Mr. Tim Mac Hansen had opportunity to witness the benefits of the project to local community. This event was largely attracted the attention of project beneficiaries and key government officials (see Figure 6).

Since December 2011, we have worked together with Mr. Frans Harum (Danida Consultant) and Mr. Soren Moestrup (Danida Advisor/PSF) to develop NRM manual and booklets for Green facilitators (GF). We prepared three chapters: (a) Catchment Management Planning; (b) Agroforestry and (c) Income generating activity. We also provided full technical assistance the making of booklet illustration; (a) catchment management planning; (b) income generating activities; (c) establishment of Village Nursery; (d) Agroforestry and (e) tree planting. The materials have been be used for GF and Setrawan training held in June and July 2012 in Sulawesi and Sumatra. The overall materials will also be useful for the next phase of PNPM-Green and other relevant NRM program.

1.3. Training Workshop to synergize efforts on PNPM-Green completion involving FKL, UPL and PL of Padang Pariaman and Agam Districts: Considering; (a) Until June 2012, several 2011 sub-projects have not been completed and those are expected to be completed before the end of August 2012; (b) Understanding that PNPM-Green will be terminated on 31 December 2012, therefore the major part of 2012 sub-projects implementation are targeted to be completed by the end of October 2012. To complete the jobs we need to synergize efforts, not only Green-Facilitators but also PL (local champions who provide field supports to FKL) and also UPK. To do so we facilitated two days workshop held in Pasir Panjang Hotel, Maninjau on 21-23 June 2012. The resources persons of the workshop were: (a) Consultants (Astal); (b) WCS; (c) OWT; (d) BPMD. We successfully facilitated workshop participants to improve technical and managerial capacity, especially: (a) approaches to solve technical problems (biogas installation, nursery development etc,); (b) financial administration and its accountability; (c) improved coordination among project beneficiaries and key PNPM actors at village and sub-district level; (d) developed committed workplan until 31 October 2012. See Figure 3. 1.4. Published and distributed Lestari Desaku magazine: On the beginning of June, we published and distributed the first edition of Lestari Desaku (My Sustainable Village; 35 pages), The magazine is aimed as an environmental awareness raising material for key village governments (KVG)/champions (KVC) at sub-district and village level on natural resource management (enhance productive use of local resource); village governance and promotion of PNPM-Green smart practices. A particular green income generating activity is selected as a focus on each edition of the magazine which will be published on quarterly basis. The focus of the first edition is Oyster Mushroom Cultivation (budidaya jamur tiram) as a potential green business in rural area. The focus, apart from discussing technical detail on the key secret success of mushroom cultivation, it also make the readers aware on the key success to start operating the business. The magazine is attached with a DVD film which provides visual detail and soft-file of written manual on the step-by-step process of the cultivation. The list of contact agencies and persons are also provided. The dream behind the making of the magazine is to make rural people aware on their on-site abundant resources which should be able to improve their livelihoods. We need to strengthen village governance to make them independence (mandiri); they should be able to build their life without too much expecting outsiders. The magazine can also be visited on www.owt.or.id. 1.5. Published Information Education and Communication (IEC) materials: (a) DVD Film on Catchment Area Management: This DVD film is composed of six films: (i). Manmade natural disaster (Bencana Alam Buatan Manusia); (ii) One Catchment One Management (Satu DAS Satu Pengelolaan); (iii) Planting campaigns in Agam District (Agam Menanam); (iv) Giant Sponge of Indonesia (Karet Busa Raksasa Indonesia); (v) MHP for People and (vi) Nursery development (Persemaian dan Pembibitan). (b) DVD film on PNPM-Green Smart Practices: This DVD is composed of five films: (i) Vegetative propagation technique (Teknik Pembibitan Vegetatif); (ii) PNPM-Green smart practices (Praktik Cerdas PNPM-Green); (iii) World Bank Supervision Mission in SE Sulawesi; (iv) Mushroom Cultivation (Budidaya Jamur); (v) The making of Kascing Fertilizer (Pupuk Kascing). (c) Posters: (i) Save and Protect Watershed Area: for the sustainability of life supporting system from ridge to reef; (ii) Making money out of the waste (Dari Limbah Menjadi Rupiah). (iii) Biogas: Making energy, Improving harvest and Combating waste (Bebas limbah, energi dan panen melimpah). Each poster was printed for 1500 copies. Each poster
9

(50 posters for each district) have been framed using woods or aluminum and installed on strategic sites, such as UPK office, district agency offices, village halls, restaurants, schools etc. (d) One leaflet: Selection of tree species for land rehabilitation (Pemilihan Jenis tanaman untuk rehabilitasi lahan). (e) Reprinted seven leaflets: (i) Seedlings propagation by cutting technique; (ii) Planting technique; (iii) Planting Gaharu; (iv) Biogas; (v) Technique on making of Bokashi; (vi) CCB; (vii) Generative seedlings propagation technique. (f) One PNPM-Green sticker: 1500 copies.

Performance Indicator 2: Local community members (including women) who are aware of environmental issues and sustainable natural resource decisions that they can participate in. 2.1. Together with Green Facilitators Facilitated budget design: During May-June, 2012s PNPM-Green cycles in West Sumatra and Bengkulu Provinces have passed MAD-II, MADIII and MD Information. The critical step between MAD-II and MAD-III was budget (RAB) design. As realized that the output of MAD-II is the rank of village proposal and target number of sub-project (e.g. land rehabilitation area in ha), while the detailed budget has not yet defined during that stage. As such, after MAD-II, PNPM-Green actors have to conduct price survey (e.g. the unit price of tree seedling, etc.), as reference to count the exact amount of fund required of each sub-project. The budget making was used to be made by FKL with limited involvement of key PNPM actors. Such process was not only lack of transparency and participation, but also negates the need of PNPM actor capacity building on budget development. The poor participation of local development actors (such as KVG) leading to poor ownership of the project. We made use the integration process (where the process is not in a hurry) to stimulate PNPM actors and stakeholders at village level on budget (RAB) making. This included the following process: (a) Together with Astal, FKL, KPMD and TPK to conduct price survey of raw materials; (b) Village to village facilitation on subproject budget making process together with FKL, TPK, KPMD, KVG and involved subproject beneficiarys candidates. The budget meetings held on UPK office. The practice is the scale-up of similar activity conducted in Sulawesi. 2.2. Development and promotion of appropriate technologies: We continuously developed innovative of environmentally sound appropriate technology (Teknologi Tepat Guna/TTG) applicable on rural community and facilitated its adoption. In this Quarter, we have introduced six new innovative green sub-projects: a. Equipment to make rice husk charcoal: Considering rice being the main agricultural crop in Agam and Padang Pariaman Districts and to a certain extent Lebong District, especially in the flat to gentle sloped terrain. The area has an abundance of paddy (unhusked rice) waste, such as rice husk/bran (sekam padi) and bran flour (dedak). Milling paddy produces 50-64% rice, rice husk (20-30%), and bran flour (8-12%). If 1 ha sawah produces 4 tons, the rice husk production is 800-1,200 kg. From this figures, one can imagine the annual rice husk production in this areas. Unfortunately, so far the local community has not made use the abundant rice husks. Rice husk is good for compost making and for rice-husk charcoal; all of which can be used as materials to develop growth medium seedlings. Understanding this, we introduced the making and
10

application of simple equipment made of thin metal. The equipment is aimed to control oxygen content during burning process in such a way the burnt husk become charcoal. b. Introduced the use of rice husk charcoal as a growth medium: The benefits are: (a) Increase pH; (b) Improve porosity (soil growth media texture and structure); (c) Seedlings are easily taken out of the poly-bag (avoid root disturbances/damages). c. Introduced germination boxes. To control humidity of the wilding (natural growth tree seedlings taken from forest floors) or newly germinated seedlings, we introduced germination boxes made of wood wrapped with plastic. The box size is 1 x 5 x 1 m. The different with normal germination tray is that the box is able to keep humidity high in such a way that the seedlings remain fresh (without fogging). 2.3. TPK training at sub district level in Padang Pariaman and Agam Districts: TPK as field project implementer hold an important role to speed up project implementation without ignoring the quality of the project. The training is relevant as it is conducted about two weeks before the first term of fund disbursement of 2012 sub-project and the third disbursement of 2011 sub-projects. The objectives of the training: (a) enhance TPK skill to execute step-by-step project implementation in line with fund disbursement; (b) enable to develop prioritization strategy to complete sub-project implementation according to timeline with acceptable quality; (c) Accountable to administer block-grant. 2.4. First round of film screening through My Darling car in West Sumatra: Since end of Juny 2012, we have started to use awareness rising car for disseminating environmental issues in Agam District. The topics of film screening are arranged in line with the main potential resource and environmental problems of the Nagari/Jorong/Korong. The awareness rising methods is similar as we have already been doing in Sulawesi: (a) During the day: coordination with key village governments and champions and announcement; (b) During the night (7 10 PM): (i) Socialization on PNPM-Green; (ii) Film Screening; (iii) Discussion by delivering list of questions related with films and PNPM-Green Program. The topics of film screening are arranged in line with the main potential resource and environmental problems of the village. To energize participants, we provided merchandize for some active participants. 2.5. Facilitated tree planting maintenance for 2011 sub-project: We facilitated maintenance support on tree planting sub-projects in Padang Pariaman District. Our support is composed of the following activities: (a) facilitated replanting about 2 months after planting; (b) facilitated regular (every two months) weeding and soil tillage surrounding the planted trees; (c) facilitated the establishment and provide technical assistance on selffunded village nurseries. Performance Indicator 3.Adoption by regional governments of natural resources governance issues as an integral part of the policy development and decision making process. 3.1. Supported PNPM-Rural Jambore in Padang Pariaman (9-11 July): Jambore PNPM is a meeting forum among PNPM-Rural actors and stakeholders at province level, where every district representatives can share experience and outputs. The event was first initiated by West Sumatra Province and now being a common events in other provinces. Together with WCS, we supported Province BPMD to present photos, awareness materials, books and
11

screening documentary films. On this event, we also introduced My Darling awareness car. See Figure 4. 3.2. Campaign of Green Nagari at Agam District: Unsustainable landuse practices occur in many villages in Agam District. In the lowland areas natural forest and other traditional land-use (agroforestry) has been converted into oil palm (Elaeis guineensis)3, while in the upland areas, Gambir (Ucaria gambir Roxb)4 plantation has been widespread at the expense of natural forest. Both have contributed to rapid deforestation, biodiversity-loss, forest fires, carbon emissions, water yield reduction and loss of landscape beauty. To control the unchecked degradation process, we supported Agam District to conduct so-called GreenNagari campaign. It is tree planting campaigns program and wise decision guide on Oilpalm and Gambir plantation. The Agam Bupati (Pak Indra Catri), BPMD (Pak Edi Busti) and Forestry Service have sent a formal request to us to support their program. 3.3 Preparation of Parliements and SKPD Semiloka in Lebong District: We conducted some meetings coordination with district PJO and Green Fasilitators to organize PNPMGreen Semiloka for parliements (DPRD) and SKPD and facilitated their visit on PNPMGreen smart practices. The activities is planned to be conducted in September 2012. Performance Indicator 4: A sustainable capacity among both [PNPM] facilitators and [PNPM] stakeholders of all levels to continue the implementation of locally driven green development investment and to expand its geographic coverage to new areas. 4.1. Facilitated the making of Perdes on NRM in West Sumatra Province: To support the initiation of Danida/1.MRD.16-3, since June, we have started to facilitate the formulation of the Nagari Regulation in Nagari Salareh Aia (Palembayan Sub-district, Agam) and Pagadih (Palupuh Sub-district, Agam). Considering complexity of environmental problems as described in section 3.2 above, the regulations have ruled the following matters: (a) Community forest management, including the administration of forest products and forest function; (b) Water Resources conservation, including springs and streams; (c) Biodiversity conservation, including the utilization of endangered species, (d) Waste Management, including household waste, market, and home industries; (e) Protection of vulnerable areas: sloping land, riparian areas, peatlands and irrigated rice field; (f) Promotion of relevant local wisdom such as agroforestry (Parak) system, customary forest. The Perdes is expected being a model for other nagari in West Sumatra. In Padang Pariaman, we trained KPMD on RPJM-Des review (see Figure 1).

Oil palm development involves many tradeoffs. Oil palm is often a major driver of economic growth and a source of alternative fuel, but it also threatens traditional livelihoods and the rich biological diversity; it destroys the landscape beauty and increases global carbon emissions. The boom of oil palm in West Sumatra has attracted upland community to plant oil palm, without caring the suitability rate of the land for oil palm. As results, many sloping areas in the upland area have been converted into smallholder oil palm plantation at the expense of forest and agroforestry land use. Gambir is a light demanding shrub plant of the Rubiace family which grows well from 300 800 m asl. The extracted leaves and branches produce tanin, katechin and pyrokatechol. Gambir is used as a raw material for medicine, food, cosmetic, textile and leather processing industries. This is a product specific to West Sumatra Province, around 80% of the world demand is met by the province with destiniation countries being: Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, France, and Switzerland. The development of Gambir plantations in Agam District is very destructive to the environment. Most of the smallholder Gambir plantations are developed through slash and burn of the remaining natural forest in the hilly terrain. Gambir is high water and nutrient demanding while there are no soil and water conservation measures or actions to maintain and restore soil fertility. After 3-5 years, the plantation becomes unproductive and new forest is cut to develop more plantation areas. Such bad practices are common in several areas and dramatically degrade landscape beauty and the sponge effects of mountain forest. The rate of deforestation is strongly correlated with the market price.

4.2. Facilitated the making of Perdes on MHP in Bengkulu Province: By the end of June, we completed serial facilitations to formulate Perdes on the management use and to sustain MHP in Air Pawuk Village, Padang Bango. It is the first MHP Perdes in the province. The village is located in remote area and shares boundary with Gunung Gedang Watershed Protection Forest (Hutan Lindung). To reach the village one should drive motor-bike for two hours through the logging road of former forest concession right working in the areas during 1990s. The Perdes acknowledged that MHP will only be sustained if local community is able to conserve Gunung Gedang Watershed Protection Forest which is cover the catchment areas of river flowing to Air Pawuk Village. See Figure 9. 4.3. Stimulated synergetic program between KBR and PNPM-Green village nursery: Since 2008, Ministry of Forestry has channeled funding through District Forestry Office to develop so-called Kebun Bibit Rakyat (KBR, community nursery). In 2011, under Danida grant, we facilitated the establishment of Nagari Salareh Aia Nursery (Palembayan, Agam), which is managed by Hijaulah Negeriku farmer group. To sustain the activities, we successfully linked the farmer group with Agam District Forestry Office; since June 2012, the farmer group received grant to develop the existing nursery capacity to become KBR. 4.4.Supported PMD to formulate Regulation on Catchment Management: We continuously stimulated Centre PMD (Jakarta) to develop General (Pedoman Umum) and Technical Guidelines (Petunjuk Teknis) on Catchment Area Management Implementation at district level, especially related to capacity building and institutional development. Since December 2011, the Author has been appointed by PMD as member of expert team in the development process of the guidelines. We have also been involved on PMD technical assistance program on catchment area management in the Eastern and Western Indonesia.

II. Management and Financial Issues A. Management Issues

After countersigning Grant Agreement (TF011930) on April 25, 2012, we directly defined the date of interviews, i.e. District Coordinators (3 persons) and finance staff at regional level (1 staff), we had advertised the vacancies since 5 April 2012. All those staffs have been recruited since May 1, 2012. On the beginning of May, we conducted pre-service training of all the newly recruited staff in Bogor. As stated in the proposal, we will not have a working office at province level, but directly at district level. The roles of working office: (a) venue for training and coordination meeting; (b) accommodation for field staff; (c) conduct reporting and administrative work. We have rented one house on each district; (a) Padang Pariaman office; this office is quite big and highly accessible. We use it as regional coordination office for West Sumatra Province; (b) Lubuk Basung Office; (c) Lebong office; we share the office with consultant; this is done to strengthen coordination. We rent three cars; (a) Kijang Innova, it is used for awareness My Darling car in Padang Pariaman and Agam Districts (West Sumatra); (b) Hi-Line, it is used as awareness car for Lebong District, (c) Avanza, it is used for operational activities in West Sumatra. Considering the facilitation area is across provinces, while many villages in Lebong is located in remote sites; the relatively short facilitation services; to make things done quickly,
13

we need a flying specialist which were not mentioned in the proposal, i.e. (a) Environmental Coordinator Specialist and (b) Technical Support Specialist. The role of the first position is to develop strategies to mainstream PNPM-Green on every sites; while the second provide mobile technical supports either for demo-plot development or sub project implementation. The administration office remains in Baubau, while Bogor office functions as production house for awareness and training materials. On 26 July, we submitted additional budget Proposal for the first amendment of TF-011930; it is aimed to finance PNPM-Green facilitation in South and South-east Sulawesi Provinces during November and December 2012. The TF 090977 for Sulawesi should be closed on 31 October 2012. The total proposed budget is USD. 84,990.50. The underlined reasons for the extension activities in Sulawesi are: (a) to complete facilitation in South Sulawesi Province which has just been effectively started on April 2012; the effective start was two months late; (b) The need to provide full facilitation of 2012 block-grant beneficiaries in both South and South-east Sulawesi Provinces.

B. Financial Issues
The total advance till June 30, 2012 was USD 156,304.07. This is an expenditure estimation for 6 months (April to September 2012);. The number submitted to the Bank on May 7, 2012 and was disbursed on June 19, 2012. This amount cover the following: (a) Category 1: Dedicated Staff Time as of USD 22,274.73; (b) Category 2: Workshop/Training, Consultant Services, Goods and Other Operating Costs as of USD 127,157.84 and (c) Category 3: Management Fee as of USD 6,871.51. During April to June 2012, as it was still in the beginning part of the project; the total spent was USD 15,014.12. This amount disbursed into (a) Category 1 as of USD 7,667.73; (b) Category 2 as of USD 6,909.09 and (c) Category 3 as of USD. 437.30. Table 1.

IV. Challenges and Remedial Actions Over the Reporting Period

A. The completion of 2011 PNPM-Green in Padang Pariaman, Agam and Lebong Districts have been far under schedule (Lessons Learned No. 1/2012) Until the end of June 2012, the completion of 2011s PNPM-Green in Padang Pariaman, Agam and Lebong (especially for Padang Bano Sub-district) Districts have been far under schedule. In fact, those are the latest compare to general PNPM-Green completion progress at national level. As this is the last year of Pilot PNPM-Green implementation, National Management Consultant (NMC) raised target to complete all PNPM-Green sub-project activities (either 2011and 2012) on 31 October 2012. The underlined reason of the very late completion in the aforementioned districts, among others, was the absence of intensive supports and technical assistance from CSO. Remedial actions: Since June, we have already added fresh resources and will give our best to complete PNPM-Green sub-projects with acceptable quality in time. B. The high rate of encroachment on watershed protection forest in Lebong District (Lessons Learned No. 2/2012) As stated in the previous message, 60 % of Lebong District area falls under state forest status. The domination of steep terrain dictates most of the natural forest in the area had been defined as watershed protection forest (Hutan Lindung). Based on our rough survey about 20% of the forest has been encroached by local community living surrounding the area. The underlined problems of the rapid encroachment: (a) unclear state forest boundaries; (b) lack of socialization of state forest boundaries; (c) high land pressure upon productive land. Remedial actions: We will work together with Lebong District Forestry Service to develop a good (communicative) state forest area map and socialize the maps to local community. We will introduce various types of site-specific agroforestry models to sustain the environmental service of watershed protection forest which had been used for agriculture areas.

PNPM-Green Beneficiaries Stories

A. Sepakat Farmer Group initiated self-funded Korong Nursery in Nagari Sungai Sarik, VII Koto, Padang Pariaman, West Sumatra Korong Sungai Ibur is known as a center of brick production. There are two major soil types in this area, sandy soil in the upper and middle slopes, clay soil in the colluvial slope; the combination of both types of soil have made the good brick quality of the area. The
16

problems, many sloping areas are cut to mine sandy soil, while the gentle and flat areas are dig-up to mine clay soil. As results, there are many cutting slopes and large holes in the area. People use the large holes for fish pond and sawah. This seems to be no problems, as the village is also well-known as fresh fish exporter to surrounding provinces (Riau and Jambi). The problem is the cutting sandy slope which is prone for landslide hazards. In response to the problem, 2011 PNPM-Green delivered block-grant to rehabilitate 8 ha of steep slope areas; part of the block-grant is also used for training on village nursery and planting technique in the sloping land. They bought tree seedlings from outside as by the time they have not had village nursery. The badly need to rehabilitate bare sloping areas in the Korong has stimulate Pak Kurnia, the head of Sepakat farmer group to follow-up the training by establishing village nursery. The nursery was visited by Pak Tim Mac Hanson, Pak Soren, Pak Frans Harum, key village government and NRM Danida Training participants, OWT and WCS staff on July 4, 20125. The quality of nursery is good. Al the training participants were very impressed with self-initiated and funded village nursery. We have already provided intensive facilitation on the development of Korong Nursery and the maintenance of tree planting. B. Perdes to sustain lights in the village, Air Pawuk Village, Padang Bano, Lebong, Bengkulu Many women and children had crying of happiness after seeing some lights during the dark evening. The existence of electricity (28 KW) in such isolated village is like a magic. All sub-village in Dusun 1 and Dusun 2 (71 households) have enjoyed lights, some can watch television. It took about 12 months struggle to make this happen. Every week, they worked together (gotong-royong) to build reservoir, water channels and turbine house. Their contribution was account to IDR 60 millions (Pak Taharin, Village Head; pers. comm.). Their incredible spirits was able to end the darkness of their village. Air Pawuk is a migrant village established in 1995, dominated by Javanese and mixed with indigenous ethnic. They rely on their livelihoods on rubber and coffee agroforestry, The village shares boundary with Hutan Lindung Gunung Gedang. One week after having MHP, Pak Tahirin asked OWT and Consultant assistance to facilitate the formulation of Village regulation (Perdes) to sustain the management use of the newly operated MHP. Since 12 June, they had started to formulate Perdes through regular meeting. The meeting held after evening pray in Nurul Iman Mosque and conducted until late evening. The Perdes had been completed on 28 June. This is the first MHP Perdes in Bengkulu Province. The Perdes acknowledged that MHP will only be sustained if local community is able to conserve Gunung Gedang Watershed Protection Forest which is cover the catchment areas of river flowing to Air Pawuk Village.

The nursery was also visited by PSF Implementation Support Team (22 June, 2012).

Appendix 4: Indonesian Translation of Executive Summary 0.1. Memfasilitasi Green PNPM di Sumatera: Menindaklanjuti supervisi Bank Dunia pada bulan Desember 2011 dan menanggapi surat yang dikirim oleh Pemerintah (Direktorat Jenderal Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Desa/PMD) yang ditujukan kepada Bank Dunia mengenai perlunya dukungan komponen tambahan (Penyadaran dan peningkatan kapasitas) di Sulawesi Selatan dan tiga kabupaten di Sumatera (Agam, Padang Pariaman dan Lebong), OWT ditunjuk oleh Bank Dunia untuk memberikan bantuan teknis kegiatan tersebut. Menanggapi permintaan tersebut, pada tanggal 13 Januari 2012, kami mengajukan proposal teknis: 'Usulan Pendampingan CSO Untuk Mendukung GreenPNPM di Kabupaten Agam dan Kabupaten Padang Pariaman (Sumatera Barat) dan Kabupaten Lebong (Provinsi Bengkulu). Setelah beberapa kali revisi, usulan itu akhirnya diterima; Kesepakatan Hibah baru (GA) ditandatangani pada tanggal 20 April 2012. Dengan nomor kontrak TF 011930; (USD 265.000). Sejak Mei 2012, kami telah melakukan kegiatan penuh di tiga kabupaten, direncanakan sampai 31 Desember 2012. 0.2. Lokasi Pendampingan OWT Dalam PNPM-Green: Provinsi Sumatera Barat: Kabupaten Agam dan Padang Pariaman, yang terdiri dari 6 kecamatan. Kabupaten Agam: Palembayan, Palupuh, dan Malalak; Kabupaten Padang Pariaman: Enam Lingkung, VII Koto Sungai Sarik, dan Batang Gasan. Provinsi Bengkulu: Kabupaten Lebong, yang terdiri dari 3 kecamatan, Padang Bano, Lebong Utara, dan Lebong Atas. 0.3. Fisiografi dan Aksesibilitas Kabupaten Pilot: (a) Kabupaten Padang Pariaman terletak di kaki Pegunungan Bukit Barisan. Bentang lahannya didominasi oleh lahan datar dan miring; tanahnya subur dengan curah hujan rata-rata 3.000 mm per-tahun. Kecamatan Pilot ini memiliki aksesibilitas yang sangat baik dan saling berdekatan satu sama lain. Hanya membutuhkan waktu sekitar 1 jam menggunakan mobil dari Bandara. Beberapa daerah memiliki tingkat bahaya tsunami yang tinggi, sedangkan penggunaan lahan utamanya adalah persawahan dan wanatani. (b) Kabupaten Agam terletak di lereng bagian atas dan tengah Pegunungan Bukit Barisan. Bentang lahannya didominasi oleh lahan berlereng curam, tanahnya subur dan curah hujan tahunannya 4.000 mm. Kabupaten ini memiliki pemandangan indah dengan kondisi cuaca yang baik. Sumber daya air berlimpah dengan kekeruhan rendah karena substrat yang stabil. Danau Maninjau, salah satu danau terbesar di Sumatra Barat, terletak di kabupaten ini. Kecamatan pilot ini memiliki aksesibilitas yang baik, meskipun jarak antar kecamatan pilot relative jauh satu sama lain, yaitu 1-3 jam menggunakan mobil'dari Bukittinggi atau Lubuk Basung (Ibu Kota Kabupaten Agam). Beberapa daerah memiliki tingkat bahaya longsor tinggi, sedangkan penggunaan lahan utama adalah sawah dan wanatani. (c) Kabupaten Lebong terletak pada lereng tengah dan atas Pegunungan Bukit Barisan. Bentang lahannya didominasi oleh daerah lereng curam, tanah subur sedangkan curah hujan tahunan 3.500 mm. Kecamatan pilot ini memiliki aksesibilitas yang relative sulit. Beberapa daerah hanya dapat diakses dengan menggunakan mobil 4 WD. Jarak dari ibukota propinsi Bengkulu membutuhkan waktu 5 6 jam dengan mobil 4 WD. Beberapa daerah memiliki tingkat longsor tinggi, sedangkan penggunaan lahan-utama adalah wanatani.

0.4. Kegiatan fasilitasi lain yang sedang berlangsung di Sumatra Barat: Dengan dana hibah dari DANIDA, sejak Maret 2011, OWT telah bekerja di Kecamatan Palembayan, Kecamatan Malalak dan Kecamatan Palupuh, Kabupaten Agam untuk memfasilitasi rehabilitasi DAS untuk keberlanjutan Project Green PNPM MHP. Kegiatan, yang akan berakhir pada 31 Oktober 2012 ini telah membantu pelaksanaan PNPM-Green di Kabupaten Agam, seperti fasilitasi pembangunan biogas di Kecamatan Palembayan dan Kecamatan Malalak. 0.5.Siklus Green PNPM Provinsi Sumatera Barat: 2011: Tahap MDST yang seharusnya selesai 2011, sampai Juni 2012 belum dilaksanakan baik di Agam maupun di Padang Pariaman. Hal ini disebabkan oleh penyaluiran dana ketiga yang diluncurkan ke tahun 2012. 2012: Berbeda dengan progress siklus tahun 2011, siklus 2012 berjalan cukup cepat. MAD III dan Informasi MD telah dilakukan awal Juni 2012 dan SPC juga telah ada akhir Juni 2012. Implementasi proyek telah dilakukan pada akhir Juli 2012. Situasi seperti ini terjadi di seluruh kecamatan di Kabupaten Agam dan Padang Pariaman. Untuk mempercepat proses dan menghindari kejadian tahun 2011, pencairan dana pertama digunakan untuk pembelian semua bahan baku yang dibutuhkan proyek, dengan demikian penyelesaian proyek tidak akan tertunda karena masalah kurangnya bahan baku. 0.6. Tahapan Siklus Green PNPM Propinsi Bengkulu : 2011: MDST telah dilakukan pada bulan Februari 2012 di semua desa kecamatan Lebong Utara dan Lebong Atas, sedangkan untuk kecamatan Padang Bano, ada dua kegiatan proyek (Pembibitan dan Pembuatan Pupuk Organik) yang belum MDST. Alasan keterlambatannya adalah karena gejolak politik di desa. 2012: Sama dengan situasi di Sumatera Barat, pencairan dana tahap I (40% dari total anggaran) telah dilakukan pada akhir Juli 2012. 0.7. Awal Pelaksanaan Proyek di Sumatera Barat dan Bengkulu: (a) Sosialisasi peran OWT dan rencana kerja di tingkat provinsi, kegiatan ini dilakukan pada workshop dan evaluasi Green PNPM di Bengkulu (8 Mei) dan Bukittinggi (10 Mei), (b) memfasilitasi rapat koordinasi yang melibatkan pelaku utama Green PNPM di Bengkulu (9 Mei), Agam (10 Mei), Padang Pariaman (11 Mei) dengan tujuan untuk mengetahui masalah dan dukungan teknis apa yang akan difasilitasi OWT; (c) Perekrutan Koordinator Kabupaten (11 Mei), (d) Pra-pelatihan Koordinator Kabupaten (Korkab) di Bogor (18-20 Mei), (e) Setiap Korkab yang baru direkrut melakukan (i) orientasi pada setiap pilot kecamatan, (ii) pemetaan masalah lingkungan spesifik dan potensi sumber daya alam di setiap kecamatan, (iii) mengidentifikasi masyarakat yang cocok untuk direkrut sebagai koodinator kecamatan (Korcam), (e) rekrutmen Koordinator Kecamatan. 0.8. Mangadakan mobil penyadaran lingkungan ('My Darling') di Sumatera Barat dan Bengkulu: untuk meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat tentang lingkungan dan isu-isunya ditingkat yang paling bawah, sejak pertengahan Mei 2012, selain CIMO (mobil penyadaran WCS), kami menghadirkan dua mobil "My Darling(Masyarakat Sadar

36

Lingkungan). Kijang Innova untuk Sumatera Barat (dua kabupaten) dan Hi-Line untuk Bengkulu (satu kabupaten). 0.9. Prinsip fasilitasi yang kami lakukan di kedua provinsi selama Juni 2012: (a) bersama-sama dengan Fasilitator Green (FK-L) memfasilitasi siklus PNPM sesuai dan mengikuti roh pemberdayaan berbasis masyarakat, (b) meningkatkan kesadaran, pelatihan dan bantuan teknis untuk pelaku kunci PNPM dan pemangku kepentingan (c) mengidentifikasi lokasi potensial untuk dijadikan lokasi percontohan ('demplot') untuk menginspirasi masyarakat di lokasi kegiatan yang nantinya diharapkan berkelanjutan terkait dengan NRM, IGA dan RE, (d) exit strategi pada pemeliharaan dan pengembangan Green PNPM; (i) penguatan kelembagaan masyarakat (Peraturan Desa), (ii) meningkatkan rasa kepemilikan pelaku utama pembangunan, seperti penyuluh, pemerintah desa (Kades)/ KVG dan orang terpilih (KVC) di tingkat desa dan kecamatan, (iii) meningkatkan rasa kepemilikan pemerintah pada hasil kegiatan Green PNPM. 10. Strategi kami untuk meningkatkan koordinasi antar Pelaku kunci di Propinsi Sumatra Barat: Dasar pemikiran: (a), Perlunya meningkatkan koordinasi dengan CSO yang sebelumnya telah aktif (WCS), (b) penyelesaian kegiatan T.A 2011 Green PNPM di Sumatera Barat (c) Tekanan/semangat dari PJO Provinsi (Pak Zukirwan Chan) untuk menyelesaikan kegiatan 2011 dan 2012 dengan tepat waktu.

Rincian kegiatan selama periode pelaporan dan hubungan dengan Indikator Kinerja disajikan pada Lampiran 1, revisi rencana kerja Lampiran 2 dan gambar di Lampiran 3. Beberapa perkembangan baru, pendekatan dan fasilitasi penting selama periode pelaporan dapat dilihat di bawah ini: Indikator Kinerja 1: Terlatihnya Fasilitator Green PNPM dan Pemangku kepentingan Tempatan PNPM untuk Memicu dan Menfasilitasi Kegiatan Green Dalam PNPM, Tidak Terbatas Pada Target Lokasi Green PNPM. 1.1. Bersama DANIDA Melakukan pelatihan NRM di Sumatera: membuat panduan manual NRM, dan booklet yang digunakan langsung pada pelatihan NRM untuk FKL dan Setrawan (fasilitator PNS) di dua wilayah Medan (25-29 Juni) dan Bukittinggi (02-06 Juli) yang melibatkan peserta dari tiga provinsi di Sumatera (Aceh, Sumatera Utara dan Sumatera Barat). Pelatihan serupa akan dilakukan pada minggu ketiga September di Bengkulu yang melibatkan peserta dari provinsi tersebut. Kami sepenuhnya mendukung pelaksanaan pelatihan tersebut dengan mengajarkan: (a) Pengenalan Manajemen Sumber Daya Alam, (b) Pengelolaan Kawasan DAS (c) Pemilihan jenis tanaman pohon (d) Penanaman pohon. Kami juga memfasilitasi pelaksanaan kegiatan lapangan. 1.2. Memfasilitasi Pelatihan NRM Danida di Kabupaten Padang Pariaman: Kami memfasilitasi kunjungan peserta pelatihan NRM sekaligus juga bertepatan dengan kunjungan Mr Tim Mac Hansen (Penasihat Danida bidang perdagangan dan pembangunan) di lokasi Praktek cerdas Green PNPM di Sumatera. Kunjungan Mr Tim Mac Hansen diarahkan pada tempat yang sama, bersamaan dengan peserta praktek lapangan pelatihan NRM. Kegiatan ini dilakukan pada Rabu, 04 Juli 2012, pukul 08.0016.00. Kegiatan praktek dilakukan di Korong (dusun)Sungai Ibur 1 dan Korong Bulu Kasok, Nagari (desa) Sungai Sarik, kecamatan VII Koto. Kegiatan praktek lapangan meliputi: (a) Pembibitan desa (diprakarsai oleh masyarakat setempat), (b) Teknik penanaman pohon di lahan curam (c) Evaluasi tingkat daya tahan tumbuh pohon (Korong Sungai Ibur); (d) agroforestri, (e) Teknik penanaman pohon di lereng miring (Green PNPM BLM 2010); (f) pembuatan pupuk organik (Korong Bulu Kasok). Semua kegiatan pelatihan lapangan ini dilakukan pada lokasi proyek Green PNPM, sehingga Mr. Tim Mac Hansen dapat menyaksikan langsung manfaat proyek untuk masyarakat setempat. Acara ini menarik perhatian para penerima manfaat proyek dan pejabat kunci pemerintah kecamatan. 1.3. Workshop Pelatihan untuk Mensinergikan Upaya Penyelesaian PNPM-Green melibatkan FKL, UPK dan PL Kabupaten Padang Pariaman dan Kabupaten Agam: Dasar pemikiran: (a) Sampai Juni 2012, beberapa kegiatan TA 2011 belum MDST dan diharapkan akan selesai sebelum akhir Agustus 2012; (b) Memahami bahwa Green PNPM akan berakhir pada tanggal 31 Desember 2012, sehingga diharapkan implementasi kegiatan TA 2012 ditargetkan akan selesai pada akhir Oktober 2012. Untuk menyelesaikan target tersebut dibutuhkan upaya sinergisitas antara semua pelaku kunci Green PNPM, tidak hanya FKL tetapi juga PL (Pendamping Lokal yang membantu
38

kegiatan FKL di lapangan) dan juga UPK. Atas alasan tersebut kami memfasilitasi workshop dua hari yang diselenggarakan di Hotel Pasir Panjang, Maninjau pada tanggal 21-23 Juni 2012. Narasumber dari lokakarya tersebut adalah: (a) Konsultan (Astal), (b) WCS (c) OWT (d) BPMD. Kegitan Workshop ini sukses untuk meningkatkan kapasitas teknis dan manajerial, terutama: (a) memecahkan masalah teknis (instalasi biogas, pengembangan pembibitan dll,), (b) administrasi keuangan dan akuntabilitas, (c) peningkatan koordinasi antara para penerima manfaat proyek dan pelaku kunci Green PNPM di tingkat desa dan kecamatan, (d) membuat rencana kerja yang akan dilakukan sampai dengan 31 Oktober 2012. 1.4. Menerbitkan dan Mendistribusikan majalah Lestari Desaku': Pada awal Juni, kami menerbitkan dan mendistribusikan edisi pertama majalah Lestari Desaku (35 halaman), majalah ini bertujuan sebagai bahan penyadaran lingkungan bagi pemerintah desa (KVG) /masyarakat terpilih (KVC) di tingkat kecamatan dan desa tentang pengelolaan sumber daya alam (meningkatkan produktifitas dari sumber daya lokal); pemerintahan desa dan promosi praktik cerdas Green PNPM. Peningkatan pendapatan dengan cara Green sebagai fokus pada setiap edisi majalah yang akan diterbitkan secara triwulan. Fokus dari edisi pertama adalah Budidaya Jamur Tiram Sebagai Bisnis Green Potensial di Daerah Pedesaan. Fokusnya, selain membahas detail teknis kesuksesan 'rahasia' kunci budidaya jamur, juga menginspirasi pembaca bagaimana memulai bisnis ini. Majalah ini juga disertai dengan film DVD yang memberikan detail visual dan soft-file manual tertulis pada proses langkah-langkah budidaya jamur. Kontak lembaga dan kontak person pelaku bisnis ini juga juga disertakan. Tujuan dibalik pembuatan majalah ini adalah untuk menyadarkan masyarakat bahwa banyak potensi lokal yang terbuang dapat meningkatkan kehidupan ekonomi mereka. Kita perlu memperkuat pemerintahan desa untuk membuat mereka lebih mandiri, mereka harus dapat membangun kehidupan mereka sendiri tanpa mengharapkan terlalu banyak orang luar. Majalah ini juga dapat dibaca melalui www.owt.or.id. 1.5. Memproduksi Bahan Informasi Pendidikan dan Komunikasi (IEC): (a) DVD Film tentang Pengelolaan DAS: Film DVD terdiri dari enam film: (i). Bencana Alam Buatan Manusia, (ii) Satu DAS Satu Manajemen, (iii) Agam Menanam, (iv) Karet Busa Raksasa Indonesia (v) MHP For People dan (vi) Persemaian Dan pembibitan. (b) DVD film tentang Praktik cerdas Green PNPM: DVD ini terdiri dari lima film: (i)Teknik pembibitan vegetatif, (ii) Praktik Cerdas Green PNPM), (iii ) World Bank Supervision Mission in SE Sulawesi, (iv) Budidaya Jamur, (v) Pupuk Kascing.

Indikator Kinerja 2: Masyarakat Tempatan (termasuk perempuan) Sadar Akan Isu Lingkungan dan Pengambilan Keputusan Pengelolaan Sumber Daya Alam Berkelanjutan Dimana Mereka Bisa Berpartisipasi. 2.1. Bersama Fasilitator Green memfasilitasi Desain Anggaran: Selama bulan MeiJuni, siklus Green PNPM TA 2012 di Provinsi Sumatera Barat dan Provinsi Bengkulu telah menyelesaikan MAD-II, MAD-III dan MD Informasi. Waktu jeda antara MAD-II dan MAD-III adalah membuat desain anggaran kegiatan (RAB). Sebagaimana yang diketahui bahwa output dari MAD-II adalah rengking proposal usulan desa dan jumlah kegiatan usulan masyarakat (misalnya rehabilitasi lahan dihitung dengan luasan ha), sedangkan pada kegiatan ini belum menghitung jumlah biaya yang akan didapatkan setiap desa. Dengan demikian, setelah MAD-II, pelaku Green PNPM harus melakukan survei harga (misalnya harga satuan bibit pohon, dll), sebagai acuan untuk menghitung jumlah pasti dana yang dibutuhkan dari masing-masing sub-proyek (usulan Masyarakat). Pembuatan Rencana anggaran biaya sering dilakukan oleh FKL dengan beberapa pelaku Green PNPM tertentu saja. Proses seperti ini bukan hanya kurang transparan dan partisipatif, tetapi juga mengurangi kesempatan pelaku PNPM membuat anggaran pembangunan. Kurangnya partisipasi pada pembangunan lokal (seperti KVG) menyebabkan kurangnya rasa kepemilikan dan tanggungjawab terhadap hasil kegiatan. Kami melakukan proses 'integrasi' (dimana proses ini tidak terburu-buru) untuk merangsang pelaku PNPM dan pemangku kepentingan di tingkat desa dalam penetapan anggaran (RAB). Prosesnya adalah sebagai berikut: (a) Bersama Astal, FKL, KPMD dan TPK melakukan survei harga bahan baku, (b) Dari 'Desa ke desa' memfasilitasi pembuatan rencana anggaran bersama FKL, TPK, KPMD, KVG dan melibatkan calon penerima manfaat. Kegiatan pertemuan ini diselenggarakan di kantor UPK. 2.2. Pengembangan dan Memperkenalkan Teknologi Tepat Guna: Kami terus mengembangkan inovasi teknologi tepat guna (TTG) ramah lingkungan yang dapat dilakukan sendiri masyarakat perdesaan dan memfasilitasi replikasinya. Triwulan ini, kami telah memperkenalkan inovasi baru kegiatan Green: a. Alat untuk membuat arang sekam padi: Mengingat padi merupakan tanaman pertanian utama di kabupaten Agam dan Pariaman Padang dan juga Kabupaten Lebong, terutama di areal datar samapai daerah miring. Daerah ini memiliki banyak limbah padi (gabah), seperti sekam padi/bekatul dan tepung bekatul (dedak). Penggilingan padi menghasilkan beras 50-64%, sekam padi (20-30%), dan tepung bekatul (8-12%). Jika 1 hektar sawah menghasilkan 4 ton, produksi sekam padi adalah 800-1.200 kg. Dari angka ini, kita bisa membayangkan produksi sekam tahunan di daerah ini. Sayangnya, sejauh ini masyarakat setempat belum memanfaatkan sekam padi tersebut. Sekam padi sangat baik untuk membuat kompos dan untuk arang sekam, dimana semuanya dapat digunakan sebagai bahan untuk pengembangkan bibit pertumbuhan menengah. Menanggapi masalah ini, kami memperkenalkan peralatan sederhana yang terbuat dari logam tipis (seng). Peralatan tersebut bertujuan untuk mengontrol kandungan oksigen selama proses pembakaran sampai sekam tidak terbakar habis dan menjadi arang sekam.
40

b.Memperkenalkan penggunaan arang sekam padi sebagai media tumbuh: Manfaatnya adalah: (a) Meningkatkan pH, (b) Meningkatkan porositas tanah, (c) Bibit mudah dikeluarkan dari polybag (menghindari gangguan kerusakan akar). c. Memperkenalkan kotak perkecambahan. Untuk mengontrol kelembaban bibit cabutan dari lantai hutan atau bibit yang baru berkecambah, kami memperkenalkan kotak perkecambahan yang terbuat dari kayu dibungkus dengan plastik. Ukuran kotak adalah 1 x 5 x 1 m. Yang berbeda dengan kotak perkecambahan biasa, kotak ini mampu menjaga kelembaban tinggi sehingga bibit tetap segar, walau tanpa (lupa) disiram. 2.3. Pelatihan TPK di tingkat kecamatan di Kabupaten Padang Pariaman dan Kabupaten Agam: TPK sebagai pelaksana lapangan proyek memegang peranan penting untuk mempercepat pelaksanaan proyek tanpa mengabaikan kualitas proyek. Pelatihan ini relevan seperti yang dilakukan sekitar dua minggu sebelum pencairan pertama dana kegiatan TA 2012 dan pencairan dana ketiga tahun kegiatan TA 2011. Tujuan pelatihan: (a) meningkatkan keterampilan TPK untuk melaksanakan kegiatan langkah-demi-langkah sesuai dengan pencairan dana, (b) dapat mengembangkan strategi prioritas untuk menyelesaikan implementasi kegiatan sesuai dengan waktu yang diberikan dengan kualitas pekerjaan yang memuaskan (c) dapat mengelola dana secara akuntabel. 2.4. Tahap I pemutaran film Keliling dengan mobil "My Darling di Kabupaten Agam: Sejak akhir Juni 2012, kami sudah mulai menggunakan mobil penyadaran untuk melakukan penyadaran masyarakat dan menyebarkan isu-isu lingkungan di tingkat Jorong (dusun) di Kabupaten Agam.. Topik-topik dari pemutaran film tersebut diatur sesuai dengan masalah sumber daya alam dan sesuai dengan potensi yang di desa lokasi pemutaran. Metode penyadaran ini mirip dengan apa yang telah dilakukan di Sulawesi: (a) Pada siang hari: koordinasi dengan pemerintah desa dan tokoh masyarakat dan melakukan pengumuman keliling desa, (b) Pada malam harinya (pukul 19.00 22.00): (i) Sosialisasi Green PNPM, (ii) Pemutaran Film, (iii) Diskusi dengan memberikan pertanyaan (kuis) yang berhubungan dengan film dan Program Green PNPM. Untuk menarik minat penonton, kami menyediakan hadiah untuk beberapa peserta aktif (T-shirt dan buku serta merchandize lainnya). 2.5. Memfasilitasi Pemeliharaan Penanaman Pohon untuk Kegiatan TA 2011: Kami memfasilitasi pemeliharaan kegiatan penanaman pohon di Kabupaten Padang Pariaman. Dukungan kami terdiri dari : (a) memfasilitasi penanaman kembali pohon (penyulaman) yang sudah berumur 2 bulan setelah tanam, (b) rutin memfasilitasi (setiap dua bulan) penyiangan dan pengolahan tanah-tanah sekitar pohon yang ditanam. Indikator Kinerja 3. Adopsi Dari Pemerintah Terhadap Isu Pengelolaan Sumber Daya Alam Berkelanjutan Sebagai Bagian Integral Dari Pengembangan Kebijakan Dan Pengambilan Keputusan 3.1. Ikut Terlibat Dalam Kegiatan Jambore PNPM- Mandiri Perdesaan di Padang Pariaman (9-11 Juli): Jambore PNPM adalah forum pertemuan antara pelaku PNPMMandiri Perdesaan dan pemangku kepentingan di tingkat provinsi, dimana setiap perwakilan kabupaten dapat berbagi pengalaman dan hasil kegiatan masing-masing. Acara ini pertama kali diprakarsai oleh Provinsi Sumatera Barat dan diikuti oleh provinsi lain. Bersama dengan WCS, diacara tersebut kami menampilkan foto, bahan penyadaran,
41

buku dan pemutaran film dokumenter (Danida) Program Pengelolaan DAS. Kami juga memperkenalkan mobil penyadaran "My Darling. 3.2. Kampanye 'Green-Nagari' di Kabupaten Agam: Kegiatan penggunaan lahan yang tidak berkelanjutan terjadi di banyak desa di Kabupaten Agam. Di daerah dataran rendah hutan alam dan penggunaan lahan tradisional (wanatani) telah dikonversi menjadi kebun kelapa sawit (Elaeis guineensis), sedangkan di dataran tinggi, ditanami Gambir (Ucaria gambir roxb). Perkebunan ini telah tersebar luas dengan mengorbankan hutan alam. Kedua tanaman tersebut telah membuat deforestasi yang cepat, hilangnya keanekaragaman hayati, kebakaran hutan, peningkatan emisi karbon, kekurangan air dan hilangnya keindahan bentang alam. Untuk mengendalikan proses degradasi yang tidak diinginkan, kami mendukung Kabupaten Agam untuk melakukan kampanye Green Nagari. Ini adalah kampanye penanaman pohon dan penyuluhan kapan menanm dan tidak menam Kelapa Sawit dan Gambir. Bupati Agam, BPMD dan Dinas Kehutanan telah mengirim permintaan resmi kepada kami untuk mendukung program tersebut. 3.3 Persiapan Workshop Semiloka DPRD dan SKPD di Kabupaten Lebong; Kami melakukan beberapa rapat koordinasi dengan PJO kabupaten dan fasilitator Green Kabupaten Lebong untuk merencanakan Workshop Semiloka Green PNPM bersama DPRD dan SKPD se-Kabupaten Lebong dan sekaligus memfasilitasi mereka berkunjung di lokasi praktik cerdas Green PNPM di kabupaten Lebong pada awal September 2012. Indikator Kinerja 4: Meningkatnya Kapasitas Fasilitator PNPM dan Pemangku Kepentingan PNPM Pada Semua Level Untuk Meneruskan Implementasi Investasi Green Yang Berbasis Masyarakat Serta Meneruskan Pada Wilayah Wilayah Baru 4.1. Memfasilitasi pembuatan Perdes NRM di Propinsi Sumatera Barat: Sejak pertengahan Mei, kami sudah mulai memfasilitasi perumusan Peraturan Nagari di Nagari Salareh Aia (Kecamatan Palembayan, Agam) dan Pagadih (Kecamatan Palupuh, Agam). Khusus untuk Nagari Salareh Aia, Peraturan Nagari telah memasukkan hal-hal berikut: (a) pengelolaan hutan masyarakat, termasuk administrasi hasil hutan dan fungsi hutan, (b) Konservasi Sumber Daya Air, termasuk mata air dan sungai, (c) Konservasi keanekaragaman hayati, termasuk perburuan spesies yang terancam punah, (d) peraturan pertambangan (e) Pengelolaan Sampah, termasuk sampah rumah tangga, pasar, dan industri rumah tangga, (f) Perlindungan daerah rawan: lahan miring, daerah tepi sungai, lahan gambut dan lahan sawah irigasi; (g) Mempertahankan kearifan lokal yang relevan seperti agroforestry dengan sistem (Parak), larangan zona pancing, hutan adat, mendorong budaya tanam seperti: wajib tanam pohon bagi pasangan sebelum pernikahan, siswa masuk ke sekolah baru atau lulus dari sebuah sekolah, mengadministrasi nama sebuah lahan dan izin lainnya dari desa / nagari. 4.2. Memfasilitasi pembuatan Perdes di MHP di Propinsi Bengkulu: Pada akhir Juni, kami menyelesaikan proses fasilitasi untuk merumuskan Perdes tentang manajemen penggunaan dan mempertahankan PLTMH di desa Air Pawuk, kecamatan Padang Bango. Ini adalah Perdes MHP pertama di provinsi ini. Desa ini terletak di daerah terpencil dan berbatasan dengan Hutan Lindung Gunung Gedang. Untuk mencapai desa kita harus menggunakan sepeda motor selama beberapa jam melalui jalan logging dari bekas perusahaan hutan di era tahun 1990-an. Isi Perdes memuat bahwa MHP hanya akan berkelanjutan jika masyarakat setempat mampu melestarikan Hutan Lindung Gunung

42

Gedang yang meliputi daerah tangkapan air dari sungai yang mengalir ke desa Air Pawuk. 4.3. Menstimulus sinergisitas program antara KBR dan Pembibitan Desa Green PNPM: Sejak 2008, Departemen Kehutanan telah menyalurkan dana melalui Kantor Kehutanan Kabupaten untuk mengembangkan apa yang disebut 'Kebun Bibit Rakyat (KBR). Pada tahun 2011, melalui dana hibah dari Danida, kami memfasilitasi pembentukan Pembibitan Nagari (desa), yang dikelola oleh kelompok tani 'Hijaulah Negeriku'. Untuk melanjutkan kegiatan ini, kami menghubungkan kelompok tani dengan Dinas Kehutanan Kabupaten Agam; pada Juni 2012, kelompok tani ini menerima hibah dari Dinas Kehutanan untuk mengembangkan KBR. 4.4 Mendukung PMD untuk merumuskan Peraturan tentang Pengelolaan DAS: Kami terus mendorong PMD Pusat (Jakarta) untuk mengembangkan Pedoman Umum dan Petunjuk Teknis tentang Pelaksanaan Pengelolaan Kawasan DAS di tingkat kabupaten, terutama yang berkaitan dengan peningkatan kapasitas dan pengembangan kelembagaan. Sejak Desember 2011, Penulis telah ditunjuk oleh PMD sebagai salah satu anggota tim ahli dalam proses penyusunan pedoman tersebut. Kami juga terlibat pada program PMD tentang teknis pengelolaan DAS di Timur dan Barat Indonesia.
