Guidelines for the identification of high conservation values in Indonesia
Year of publication 2009
This original 2003 version of the HCVF Toolkit for Indonesia served a vital purpose, but overtime became increasingly difficult to use it, so in late 2006 a consortium of HCV users in Indonesia set out to revise and update the Toolkit to improve its usefulness in Indonesia.
The Toolkit revision was intended to: provide a logical structure and detailed explanation concerning the HCV concept and HCV methodology; provide useful definitions of important terms and phrases; and to clarify stages in the process of identifying HCVs, as well as rights and responsibilities of parties involved. It was agreed that special attention must be given to the following issues: the HCV concept and the revision process. The revision was carried out in a transparent fashion involving the broadest possible range of stakeholders in a public and accountable manner to obtain maximum understanding and support for the HCV process in its entirety, from identification to management and monitoring.
This revision was carried out in a participative fashion through a combination of monthly meetings of two working groups; larger stakeholder meetings in Jakarta, Sumatera, Kalimantan, and Papua; as well as internet-based discussions.
