CONSULTANT for WEST PAPUA LIVELIHOODS

As one of the provinces with the largest Peatland and Mangrove Ecosystem (PME) in Indonesia, West Papua could only protect 10% of the mangroves area (650,000 ha). According to the socio-culture situation, the local community living in the mangrove areas is very limited as they only could utilize the mangrove ecosystem at a very minimum aspect, especially in Kaimana Regency, South Sorong Regency, and Bintuni Regency. The local community mostly utilizes the mangrove to fulfill their daily needs. However, some people generate several activities to increase their income based on limited opportunities. For example, Bintuni and Kaimana's local community started to sell shrimp and crabs to visitors outside West Papua.
