Abstract
The government has organized state forest areas to be managed with specific management objectives, so that forest ecosystem services can be produced in a sustainable manner. On the other hand, this arrangement has limited access to local communities whose livelihoods depend on the forest. The dynamics of changes in the land use of forest areas due to pressure from the local community and non-forestry sectors, over the past ten years, has given rise to environmental problems such as: forest degradation, water crisis, floods and droughts, and erosion. This paper examines the concepts of sovereignty and forest tenure as principles of creating rights and responsibilities in relation to forest conservation use and the governance arrangements required for more sustainably and equitably. This is especially important in the context of developing forest governance based on landscape justice. This paper recommends the reconstruction of conservation forest landuse, from a fractional basis to a watershed landscape.
