Penyertaan Nilai Sosial Budaya dalam Penilaian Kompensasi Tanah Ulayat Kabupaten Jayapura, Papua Berdasarkan Partisipasi Pemangku Kepentingan, Masyarakat Adat & Penilai

Abstract

The issue of customary land in Indonesia arises from the recognition of land ownership by indigenous peoples, which often leads to conflicts centered on financial compensation rather than legal entitlement. The differing concepts of ownership between modern and customary cultures complicate fair compensation assessments. This study identifies the factors influencing the Integration of socio-cultural values in the assessment of customary land compensation in Jayapura, Papua, through literature reviews, field surveys, and questionnaires involving 187 members of the local indigenous community. The study highlights that fair compensation must account for socio-cultural values encompassing historical, cultural, social, spiritual, and aesthetic aspects, which are often overlooked in the compensation process. Cultural values include ancestral stories, traditional songs, dances, and hunting traditions, which are essential to the identity of indigenous communities. Social values emphasize cooperation and kinship, which form the foundation for land preservation and are reflected in communal utilization and adherence to customary laws. Spiritual values regard land as a divine gift tied to indigenous beliefs, while aesthetic values highlight the natural beauty of Jayapura's customary lands and the appeal of traditional ceremonies. These findings urge the Indonesian appraisers' association to incorporate socio-cultural values into the framework for assessing customary land compensation, ensuring fairness and respect for local traditions. This approach is crucial not only for Papua but also for similar contexts across Indonesia.
