Kajian Nilai Konservasi Tinggi Provinsi Kalimantan Tengah
Summary
This executive summary describes a study on High Conservation Value (HCV) areas in Central Kalimantan province, conducted by the Palangkaraya Institute for Land Use+Agricultural Research (PILAR) and the Climate Policy Initiative (CPI). The report identifies critical biological, ecological, social, and cultural values to inform sustainable land-use planning and the province's Strategic Environmental Assessment (KLHS).
Key insights
- High Conservation Value (HCV) areas are extensive in Central Kalimantan, covering more than half of the province's territory, with approximately 60% of the land area consisting of high-value natural landscapes and critical ecosystems.
- A significant portion of HCV areas is under threat from planned development activities; nearly two-thirds (61.6%) of the mapped HCV areas are potentially exposed to adverse impacts. Specific threats include planned spatial planning conversions (affecting nearly 18%), logging (nearly 35%), and fiber and other plantations (over 17%).
- Forest cover in Central Kalimantan decreased by 4 million hectares (32%) between 1973 and 2012, with an average annual loss of nearly 100,000 hectares. By 2012, remaining forests covered just over 8.1 million hectares, or nearly 50% of the province. Planned deforestation risk is projected to affect nearly 1.1 million hectares of this remaining forest.
- Five regencies are identified as critical due to their high concentration of HCV areas: Murung Raya, Katingan, Gunung Mas, Kapuas, and Seruyan. Together, these five regencies account for 62% of the total overall HCV areas in the province, with Murung Raya supporting the largest cumulative HCV area at nearly 2.1 million hectares.
- The study focused on five specific HCV categories: Protected Areas (HCV 1.1), Large and Natural Landscapes (HCV 2.1), Transition Ecosystems (HCV 2.2), Rare or Endangered Ecosystems (HCV 3), and Specific Environmental Services (HCV 4.2).
