Abstract
Improper implementation of peatland forest activities has altered the forest ecosystem resulting to near extinct or degradation of the peatland forest and its biodiversity. This research focuses on stakeholder attribute analysis for successful management of the aquaculture projects to ensure enhancement of provisioning services (fish) in the streams, ponds and rivers in the peat forest by providing an alternative source of fish to the community in a case study of Hampangen village, central Kalimantan in Indonesia. The exclusive features in our analysis shows that the income of the stakeholders or their educational level do not necessarily influence their roles and position in the leadership network nor determine the ES usage from the forest. This research challenges the mainstream understanding on stakeholders’ selection based on educational background or income levels. From our study, we propose stakeholder selection based on social network attributes for a successful group or communal project management.
