Abstract

Abstract. Much has been studied about the agrarian issue and its conflicts in Indonesia, but few of them have been explored in the context of small islands designated as conservation areas. To extend the issue, this research aims to analyze the dynamics of spatial utilization and tenurial conflict in the conservation area of Moyo Island, West Nusa Tenggara. Based on qualitative methods, the data was gathered through observation, in-depth interviews with 20 key informants, and secondary sources. This research found that spatial utilization practices on Moyo Island are problematic, which has triggered a conflict. Due to a lack of control by the local government, forest areas have been openly and collectively encroached on by the local community to become agricultural land. Meanwhile, extensive fishing practices and tourism activities are threatening the long-term viability of coral reefs in coastal areas. These difficulties overlap with tenurial conflicts between local communities and the Nature Conservation Agency of West Nusa Tenggara regarding land boundaries as well as the problem among local people and the private sector purchasing and selling property under the table. All in all, this research offers policy recommendations to resolve those problems in the conservation area of Moyo Island.
