What is it about?
The karst area of Wonogiri is part of the Gunung Sewu Area, a Global Geopark established by the UNESCO Global Geopark Network. The local inhabitants have not gained any benefit from the potential natural resources. Meanwhile, they are constrained by the harsh nature and the obligation to preserve the karst area. This leads to the question of how spatial planning could intervene inthe socio-economic conditions of the inhabitant by utilizing the natural resources of the karst.
