Conservation village model development (MDK) around conservation areas, including Mount Rinjani National Park (TNGR), is intended to empower local communities. Implementation so far has not delivered expected results, prompting an analysis of how community land-use preferences relate to MDK implementation in TNGR. Findings indicate that the MDK implementation in TNGR provides insufficient consideration of surrounding community preferences. Misalignment between MDK interventions and preferences reduces program effectiveness and increases the likelihood of failure.

However, the implementation of the program so far has not succeeded. The purpose of this study is to determine people's preferences in land use and its relation to the implementation of the MDKin TNGR. The results showed that during this time, the implementation of MDK in TNGR has less consideration of communities’ preferences in the TNGR surrounding area. * Corresponding author. Differences in MDK program interventions with community preferences resulting MDK program is not running optimally and likely to fail. One way to optimize the implementation of the program is that by encouraging the program through an institutional approach that is adaptive to local community life.

Introduction Dynamics that occurred in the management of Indonesia national parks cannot be separated from the process of interaction between the community and national park area to meet their needs. In general, people have long and hereditary interact and have traditionally lived his life in the forest [1] and most of them live on a very subsistence economic level [2] .Therefore, one key to the success of park management relies heavily on community support that exists around the region. The transformation of resources controlled process managed by local communities become a state-owned resources in many areas, have led to: (1) removal of institutional local wisdom; (2) weak capacity for monitoring and controlling the state institutions, especially the large-scale resources, complex which is claimed and controlled by the state, and (3) use of available resources trapped in conditions of de facto open access and the tendency of the parties becomes a race to harness the resources as much as possible for the benefit of each [3] . It is implicated in conflicts and weak management capacity at the site level. Conflict of interest in the control of natural resources between the government and society in recent years is becoming more prominent among the various national issues. In terms of conservation, these conflicts often rise to the surface in the form of competition between development interests on the one hand and conservation on the other. Based Law Reform Association for Community and Ecology in 2012 noted, there have been 278 conflicts over natural resources and agrarian, which took place in 98 cities/regencies in 23 provinces with an area of conflict reached 2,416,035 hectares [4] . One of the conservation efforts that are currently intensively applied throughout Indonesia is a conservation village model development. Conceptually, the conservation village model is a village as a model in an effort to empower communities in and around conservation for

FAQs

What is the main purpose of the study in TNGR?

To determine people’s preferences in land use and analyze how those preferences relate to the implementation of the conservation village model (MDK) in TNGR.

What does the study conclude about MDK implementation in TNGR?

MDK implementation in TNGR has provided less consideration of community preferences, leading to reduced program effectiveness.

Why do mismatches between MDK interventions and community preferences matter?

The study states that such differences prevent the MDK program from running optimally and make it likely to fail, suggesting the need for an adaptive institutional approach.
