摘要

油棕在热带雨林的扩张严重降低了下游的水质,使依赖河流的土著社区的生计面临更大的风险。对于印尼巴布亚的土著部落Kaiso来说,这条河是消费用水的主要来源,而种植园阻碍了他们获得清洁和安全的饮用水源。季节性的不确定性,再加上水资源干预措施的失败和计划中的油棕扩张,表明Kaiso人的健康和福祉由于长期接触受污染的水而进一步恶化。本研究采用混合方法,结合定量家庭调查和定性访谈,来研究油棕扩张对社区供水的影响。目标是全面了解种植园建立后的生计、国家干预措施和安全用水观念,并通过与水偏好有关的定量调查结果加以证实。结果显示,在油棕种植园建立后,大约85.6% %的家庭改用雨水作为饮用水。虽然感知到的水质与非消耗性用水密切相关,但消耗性用水没有表现出关联,这表明在干旱时期依赖受污染的水源。这需要进一步的定性研究。围绕雨水收集的季节性不确定性和失败的干预措施模糊了Kaiso安全用水的定义;煮沸被认为可以消除油棕种植园中所有的化学和有害物质,而不仅仅是生物物质,这需要进一步的评估。解决土著社区面临的清洁用水问题,需要对整个流域进行评估,并要求社区参与与种植有关的决策,特别是对低地和依赖河流的人口,特别是在印度尼西亚的巴布亚。

A mixed-methods assessment of the influence of palm plantations on water resources of indigenous communities of Indonesian Papua
Oil palm expansion in tropical rainforests actively degrades downstream water quality, placing the livelihoods of river-dependent Indigenous communities who rely on these rivers at greater risk. For the Kaiso, an Indigenous group in Indonesian Papua, the river serves as the primary source for consumptive use, and the plantation impairs access to clean and safe drinking water sources. Seasonal uncertainties, coupled with failed water interventions and planned oil palm expansions, suggest a further deterioration of the health and well-being of the Kaiso through long-term exposure to contaminated water. This study employs a mixed-method approach, integrating quantitative household surveys and qualitative interviews, to examine the current impact of oil palm expansions on community-level water access. The objective is to provide a comprehensive understanding of livelihoods, state interventions, and safe water perception following plantation establishment, corroborated by quantitative findings with water preferences. Results reveal a significant shift towards rainwater for drinking water use, or approximately 85.6 % of households, post-establishment of oil palm plantations. While perceived water quality strongly correlated with non-consumptive use, consumptive use showed no association, suggesting reliance on contaminated sources during dry periods. This necessitates further qualitative investigations. Seasonal uncertainties surrounding rainwater harvesting and failed interventions have obscured the definition of safe water for the Kaiso; boiling was perceived to eliminate all chemical and harmful substances from oil palm plantations, not just biological ones, and needs further assessment. Addressing clean water access faced by Indigenous communities requires a watershed-wide assessment and community participation in plantation-related decisions, particularly for lowland and river-dependent populations, especially in Indonesian Papua.
