Short Review on River Basin Management in Ternate City; Recommendation

Abstract

Institutional for water and watershed management are essentially social structures that are always evolving and changing in accordance with social and ecological dynamics. The shape and direction of socioecological change are strongly reliant on the dynamics of interaction between social and ecosystem components. In line with the location and function of the management agency, a process of knowledge dissemination is required for institutional growth. It is time to forsake the formal and absolute top-down management style and progressively include bottom-up management. As an established multi-sectoral forum, the National/Provincial Water Resources Council and/or TKPSDA are stakeholders whose roles and duties must be strengthened. Through a literature analysis, this study evaluates existing research on the difficulties underlying the implementation of river basin management. It is also possible to draw conclusions about the approaches that may be employed to tackle difficulties with river basin management. This research employs observation, literature review, focus group discussion, and in-depth interviews with community members and stakeholders as its methodology. Not just the symptoms, but the source of the issue must be addressed. Collaboration is a multidisciplinary and multisectoral approach to work that emphasises cooperation. Here, the need of collaboration at the national and provincial levels becomes paramount. Political will is vital to the success of integrated water resources management. Institutions must be enhanced, particularly in terms of river management. As part of the destructive power of water, policies for controlling the risks of flooding, drought, and pollution must be a priority.
