Abstract

Mining activities not only have an impact on the environment, but also on social life around the mining area. Houses damaged by bomb activity in mining areas are one example. Communities around the mining area are the most affected by the mining activities. Not only the impact of mining activities, but also the gaps that cause conflict between mining companies and communities around mining areas. Understanding of the relationship between mining company and communities around it, and also stakeholders involved need to be clearly known. That understanding is used to model how community empowerment and development around the mining area is built. The study uses a qualitative approach to model it. The causes of mining conflicts were collected to draw the mining conflicts mapping in Lampung Province. Observations and in-depth interviews were conducted with 17 research informants, 4 location observations, and two focus group discussions to model the suitable community empowerment and development for areas around the mining project. Related regulations were also analyzed as material to construct the model. The result found that the model shapes a loop diagram where it should be started from regulation as a legal standing and foundation. The next steps in the sequence are building community empowerment and development patterns/forms, implementing coordination, funding, object targeting, transparency and supervising, evaluation, sanctions and success promotion, and then it feeds back to regulation. This loop diagram as a community empowerment and development model can be used by government and mining companies to develop social aspects in the mining sector.
