Sustainable Rural Development
Sustainable development is expected to provide economic prosperity, ensure ecological sustainability, and promote social justice for both current and future generations.
The villages of Wadas in Purworejo regency, Central Java, and Batu Kerbau in Bungo regency, Jambi have drawn my attention lately. The two villages have tested policymakers’ commitment to correctly implementing the concept of sustainable development.
Like in other regions, recent events that occurred in the two villages also concerned the same economic sector: mining. This sector often hampers the implementation of sustainable development.
