Abstract

Previous research has carried out to examine the use of public space as a medium of conflict reconciliation, on conflict cases in Ambon and Poso. Both places utilize existing public space to become a medium of reconciliation and a trigger for peace. Public spaces used include schools, markets, and coffee shops. The difference between the two models lies only in the public space used, wherein Ambon’s model used the coffee shop while in Poso it is not. This is because there are cultural differences between Ambon and Poso, where Ambon has a culture to gather together in a coffee shop. This research itself is a development or continuation of the initial research, researchers conducted a trial implementation of public space model as a medium of reconciliation in other location. The purpose of this research is to obtain data validation on the model of applying public space as a medium of conflict reconciliation, so that the models can be used as a basis for drafting policies related to conflict resolution in Indonesia. The research was conducted using qualitative approaches and phenomenological methods, and data were obtained through focus group discussions with informants who were community leaders from the government, religious leaders, and academics. The results showed the use of public space precisely as a medium of reconciliation, but it must be supported by the role of government and community leaders. Another finding, a public space that can be used not only that is real or physical but also a virtual public space.
