  • Abstract

    Gunung Bromo Forest is Sebelas Maret University Educational Forest, which has the status of a Special Purpose Forest Zone. The region hopes to be able to be managed sustainably to provide broad benefits not only in terms of the development of science but also the empowerment of communities around the forest. This study aims to formulate the focus of appropriate education forest management, the form of participation of the parties, as well as identifying obstacles in its implementation. The data collection method uses the Focus Group Discussion (FGD) approach, which takes place in two stages involving the parties (community, private sector, academics, and government). The parties agreed that the focus of the management of the Gunung Bromo Forest is ecotourism. It is considered capable of integrating ecological, economic, and socio-cultural aspects, which are essential components of sustainability. The forms of participation of actors in the management of educational forests vary according to the roles and capacities of the parties ranging from securing the area, research, education & community capacity building, capital & promotion networks, to relevant policy programs. The obstacles in the implementation of the management of educational forests are ecotourism infrastructure, institutional management, security, human resource capacity, and administration/bureaucracy.
