CONSISTENCY AND COHERENCE OF TURTLE CONSERVATION POLICIES IN VENU ISLAND WILDLIFE SANCTUARY, KAIMANA, WEST PAPUA
ABSTRACT: Policy
management of turtle conservation in the region of Venu Island Wildlife
Sanctuary, Kaimana, West Papua is indispensable. Therefore, this study aimed at
examining the turtle conservation policy and it’s implementation, both the
consistency and coherence. The analytical method used is content analysis and
simple mathematic statistics. The consistency of turtle conservation management
policies is found inconsistent in implementation. Similarly, coherence between
the policy on turtle conservation management with government policy is found
incoherent, as it is more oriented to "economic growth" compared to
turtle conservation management. This is due to weak management, among others:
communication, resources, attitudes and behavior, and bureaucratic structures.
"Management Authority Multi-stakeholder" was found as a form of the
collaborative approach in carrying out the turtle conservation among
institutional managers with other key stakeholders. Consolidation of these
institutions need to be carried out by non-governmental organizations, i.e.,
Conservation International (Indonesia) Corridor Kaimana and local government,
i.e., the Department of Marine and Fisheries, Department of tourism and culture
along with Indigenous Peoples. So policy integration among sectors as well as
the consistency and coherence should be coherent in the approach to building
synergy with policies of sustainable management of turtle conservation in the
region of Venu Island Wildlife Sanctuary, Kaimana, West Papua.
