ADVOKASI MASYARAKAT DALAM PENYELESAIAN SENGEKETA LINGKUNGAN HIDUP DI JATEN, KABUPATEN KARANGANYAR

Abstract

The problem of this public service is how to realize the autonomic people power to do the advocate of environment in order to overcome the environmental conflict. In the training of the advocate of environment, the victims of pollution—most of them are farmers and low educated people— are very enthusiastic to join the training. They are curious to know how to struggle for their polluted environment as the result of the misconduct of irresponsible companies. In the effort of this advocate of environment, the NGO “Gita Pertiwi” also gives significant contribution. It tends to cooperate with the society in order to do the advocating process. Yet, the previous activity is conducting dialogues with the society about the pollution problem. Besides, they attempt to facilitate the society to figure and find out the solution of the problem. Key words: Environment, society, advocate.
