Abstract

The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, Article 12, states that young people should be able to participate in issues that affect them. In this study, the indigenous Orang Rimba community examines the natural resources of their area through mapping so that the community can be more aware of environmental changes and at the same time their culture can be preserved. This research employs participatory resource mapping (PRM) to gather information about how young Orang Rimba view the forest in relation to customs. The study includes workshops on using GPS and GIS as well as resource mapping activities in the forest ecosystem. Through the participatory resource mapping, the study successfully maps 12 sacred places, 6 animal sites, and 14 medicinal plants in a short survey. The young Orang Rimba were also capable of addressing current environmental issues, including deforestation events, and simultaneously protecting the forest through local cultural practices. The study recommends involving indigenous communities in natural resource protection and awareness through mapping activities from a young age.
测绘就是关怀:通过幼猩猩林巴倡议促进森林保护
《联合国儿童权利公约》第12条规定,年轻人应该能够参与影响他们的问题。在这项研究中,土著Orang Rimba社区通过绘制地图来检查他们所在地区的自然资源,以便社区能够更加了解环境变化,同时保护他们的文化。本研究采用参与式资源测绘(PRM)来收集有关年轻的林巴猩猩如何看待与习俗有关的森林的信息。这项研究包括关于使用全球定位系统和地理信息系统以及森林生态系统资源测绘活动的讲习班。通过参与式资源测绘,该研究在短时间内成功测绘了12个圣地、6个动物遗址和14种药用植物。年轻的Orang Rimba也有能力解决当前的环境问题,包括森林砍伐事件,同时通过当地的文化习俗保护森林。该研究建议让土著社区从小就参与自然资源保护和意识的测绘活动。

期刊介绍: Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
