Abstract

This paper was not presented at the conference.

Sustainable watershed management is a challenging task due to the increasing pressures of climate change, population growth, and land use change. Adaptive watershed management (AWM) is a promising approach to address these challenges by incorporating flexibility and learning into the management process. This literature review provides an overview of the AWM concept and its potential application to the Paguyaman watershed in Indonesia. The review identifies the following key characteristics of AWM based on a comprehensive understanding of the watershed and its dynamics, flexible and adaptable to changing conditions, focused on outcomes and objectives also inclusive and participatory. The review also discusses the challenges and opportunities of implementing AWM, including the need for accurate data and information, adequate resources, and strong leadership and commitment. The review concludes that AWM has the potential to be a valuable tool for sustainable watershed management in Indonesia. However, further research is needed to develop and refine AWM approaches that are tailored to the specific needs and conditions of the Paguyaman watershed.
