摘要:The rapid expansion of the artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) industry in developing countries has resulted in occupational exposure to mercury via the gold extraction process. The objective of this study was to assess the knowledge, interest, position, and power of stakeholders for the implementation of the mercury pollution reduction program. This study involved ten stakeholders as representatives from different backgrounds in the Bombana regency. The results of the analysis show that the health department, environmental agency, and village head are stakeholders who have a high level of knowledge and interest in the program. The assessment based on position and partnership indicates that the health department and local university have high-level power/leadership and become the great potential supporter. Stakeholders with the potential to become opponent are traditional land owners, mining companies, and local activists. The priority strategy recommended from this study is to initiate active communication to stakeholders and create a clear guidance on the implementation of the program. Also, an effective approach is needed to create the mutually beneficial cooperation agreement to avoid provocation and conflict.
