Community Participation in River Basin Management

River basin management can increase biodiversity conservation, land productivity, ecosystem restoration, rehabilitation, and land reclamation. River basin management cannot be handled by one institution alone but requires cooperation and coordination with various parties. Community involvement in river basin management has a strategic role and is carried out based on the principle of sustainability that combines a balance between productivity and conservation to achieve river basin management goals. Community participation has the power to make decisions autonomously in order to be able to solve the needs and interests of life and improve the standard of living by utilizing the resources that must be owned. In addition, it is also necessary to harmonize structural relationships between institutions in government both at the center and at the local level so that internal factors can be controlled, and programs and activities do not overlap in the management of natural resources and air. One of the impacts of climate change is the occurrence of river basin damage. Upstream river basins as buffer areas, water catchments, and sources of water filters will be damaged. Sensitive people will be more vulnerable, while people who can adapt will survive
