Excerpt
Excerpt: Moeliono and Fisher highlight a research and mediation process conducted over eight months in the Riung Conservation Area on the island of Flores in Indonesia. Numerous conflicts have erupted over the use and management of the marine and terrestrial reserves. The process described by the authors is designed to identify the sources of conflict, gather sufficient information for negotiation and planning, organize the parties in preparation for negotiation, and bring the parties together to seek mutually acceptable agreements. In this case participatory action research techniques were especially useful in empowering local communities to participate more effectively in defining issues and negotiating key positions.
